Halloween Zombie Dolls
I miss Get Crafty, I come visit when I have a few minutes to spare, you all are so creative and awesome as always!! Here is a recent project I did...

There is something deliciously fun about making something creepy. Especially when you start with those naked dolls from the craft or dollar store. You know, the ones with the plastic hair, blinking eyelids and stiff lashes. (Shiver.) Well, I decided to give those babes a mischievous Halloween makeover with the help of a bit of black paint.
The dolls come in a variety of sizes, and even scarier - you can even score a bag of heads and arms for under $5. Can you imagine how cute it would be to have a Halloween zombie doll crocheted tissue-paper cover in your bathroom for your party? Even better, zombie doll cupcake toppers with black icing! You could even go the Toy Story route and mix and match heads, torsos, legs and arms with other dolls or toys. I opted for the classic full-bodied dolls and had just as much fun.

They are both really great, Kathy! I've been trying to convince a friend of mine in Boston that he really wants a crocheted dolly toilet paper cover for his $40k master bathroom... Now if i actually do make one for him I think I'll enjoy it!

it would definately be a conversation starter!

They are adorable - in a fantastically creepy and vaguely disturbing sort of way. I just love 'em! (particularly the tats on the 2nd one)

That really gave me a chuckle. I would have thought they were some of those Goth dolls from the Entertainment Earth catalog/Hot Topic if you hadn't said they were just plain craft store dollies before you got a hold of them!
There were some serious transformations going on! :-)
