A craft doll made of various mixed media. The head is a brown clay ball with beige glasses. The hair consists of thin strips of black material. The body is a popsicle stick coloured with dark blue marker stuck in a block of pinkish dried clay. The body of the doll is covered with a white translucent drawstring pouch. The upper part of the pouch is tied in a way that looks like a frilly collar. Under the pouch on both sides of the popsicle stick is opaque white fabric. An orange string is glued to the back and trails behind.
So this has a lot of materials. First of all, what I notice is there's long strings that are hanging down from both sides of it, and then at the very bottom of the figure is a base that's kind of clay, or something, feels like that, with wood on the bottom coming up where the legs would be. Then there's really nice silky material on the bottom, almost like a skirt. And that also has some nice other fabrics too. And then you get into some really sort of lacy fabrics around the neck, with ruffles around the neck, and sort of some other fabrics underneath that neck, a little bit, little bit rougher fabrics underneath the neck. The top of the head is, like, very fuzzy. It's really nice, like, almost like, feels like a caterpillar fuzziness. It might be, oh, the hair. Could also be a hat, but I think it's the hair, but there's tassels hanging down, almost like bangs of hair, or it could be a hat, and the back of the head is also very fuzzy too. And at the face, you can feel the face. You can feel the nose and the eyes and the mouth. You can feel it, it's, and the ears made out of sort of a rough material. Probably could be clay material, but a little bit rough. The back is that same silky material.
