Materials Needed
Before you begin, gather the following materials:
– A small, soft cloth doll (you can find these at craft stores or online)
– A pair of scissors
– A needle and thread
– A small amount of cotton or other soft stuffing
– A small amount of clay or modeling compound
– A small amount of thread or yarn
– A small amount of cotton balls or other soft material
– A small amount of hair or fur (optional)
– A small amount of fabric or leather for clothing (optional)
– A small amount of beads or sequins (optional)
– A small amount of sand or earth
– A small amount of salt
– A small amount of water
– A small amount of a personal item from the person you wish to influence (e.g., a lock of hair, a piece of clothing, etc.)
Creating the Voodoo Doll
1. Begin by stuffing the cloth doll with cotton or other soft stuffing until it is firm but not too tight.
2. Cut a small piece of clay or modeling compound and roll it into a ball. This will be the head of the voodoo doll.
3. Glue the clay ball to the top of the doll’s body using a small amount of water or a craft glue.
4. If desired, add hair or fur to the doll’s head using a small amount of glue or thread.
5. Cut a small piece of fabric or leather and sew it onto the doll’s body to create clothing. You can also add beads or sequins for decoration.
6. Take a small piece of thread or yarn and tie it around the doll’s neck to create a hangar for hanging the doll.
7. Fill a small bowl with sand or earth and sprinkle a small amount of salt on top. This will be the ground for the voodoo doll.
8. Place the voodoo doll on the ground and sprinkle a small amount of water around it.
Consecrating the Voodoo Doll
1. Take the personal item from the person you wish to influence and place it under the voodoo doll.
2. Light a candle and place it near the voodoo doll. The candle represents the power of the voodoo doll.
3. Hold the voodoo doll in your hands and recite a spell or incantation. This spell should be focused on the person you wish to influence and the outcome you desire.
4. After reciting the spell, place the voodoo doll back on the ground and continue to recite the spell for a few minutes.
Conclusion
Creating a voodoo doll can be a fascinating and rewarding experience. Remember to handle the doll with respect and care, as it is believed to hold the power to influence others. Always use the voodoo doll for positive intentions and never use it to harm or manipulate others. Happy crafting!
