    Cinderella

    From our friends at Wikipedia:

    Cinderella, or The Little Glass Slipper, (French: Cendrillon, ou La petite Pantoufle de Verre, Italian: Cenerentola, German: Aschenputtel) is a European folk tale embodying a myth-element of unjust oppression/triumphant reward. The title character is a woman living in unfortunate circumstances that are suddenly changed to remarkable fortune. The most popular versions were published by Charles Perrault in Histoires ou contes du temps passé in 1697,  and by the Brothers Grimm in their folk tale collection Grimms’ Fairy Tales. Although both the story’s title and the character’s name change in different languages, in English-language folklore “Cinderella” is the archetypal name. The word “Cinderella” has, by analogy, come to mean one whose attributes were unrecognized, or one who unexpectedly achieves recognition or success after a period of obscurity and neglect. The still-popular story of “Cinderella” continues to influence popular culture internationally, lending plot elements, allusions, and tropes to a wide variety of media.

    Description

    A handmade / hand crafted doll made from a single flax rope. Each doll is hand decorated and adorned with recovered textiles; as well as other detailing such as beads, buttons, and metal ornaments. Each doll has a chain to enable the doll to be used as a keychain, a mobile phone strap, added to jewellery, or similar use like a bag accessory. Can also be used as a X-Mas tree accessory. As the dolls are handmade, each doll is unique and may differ slightly in size or shade of colour. Approximate size is 2.5-3 inches.

    Each String Doll, Voodoo String Doll and Voodoo keychain is made from a single length of continuous cotton string, which is carefully wound to create the classic string doll body shape. No wire frames are used as a template for the body so each wind has to be perfectly accurate. Each String Doll, Voodoo String Doll and Voodoo keychain is then adorned with distinctive accessories to create particular characteristics. Many of the these accessories are made from off cuts of materials which would otherwise be thrown away. Very little goes to waste!
