The challenge for Flickr MADMAMMA group this month, is to make a doll from drink cans ideally that have been squashed flat. the top one i turned into an oriental doll, and i will keep that one for a while. the bottom one will go into the MADMAMMA trade, i was lucky enough to find the perfect squashed fruit drinks can yesterday, after washing and drying i sprayed it with silver metallic paint, then colour washes,added some google eyes and a jesters hat. punched a couple of holes each side, threaded some wire then added some beads.
The Orintal one i folded into shape, covered with metallic tape, sprayed with colour wash, added a altered piece of CD. added beads to the bottom,

Your Oriental doll is so elegant - who would have known her origin?
What a neat idea and those look so fun to make. I'm always looking for ways to recycle things. The Oriental doll is really wonderful and the Jester is neat too!
The oriental doll is amazing and the Jester is grerat fun. who'd have thought?
Somewhere there is a genius who stays up waaaay late at night, thinking up all these creations!
Is it you Genie/Genius?
