this is shadow, my puppet. I made her using a black and a grey handkerchief, the black was wrapped around wadded (in a ball) plastic shopping bags and secured with a tied bow.then i 'dressed her with the grey handkerchief. her white hair is a mini feather boa i secured with hot glue. i used sticky craft foam sheeting to make her hands that are connected to rods for puppetry and she has a rod into her head from underneath also. I hung two items under her clothes; one is a heart shaped chalk board that i wrote "i am afraid of the dark" as shadow's secret (this secret can be changed as needed), and she has a clear little bucket to keep other's secrets in. I created shadow for my art tx course but i wanted to make a puppet i could use someday in my counseling practice. Shadow is a very good secret keeper.
i hope you like her
lovingly, coral
