Dark Elf Doll

This doll is a submission to Doll Streets Project Runway.  The challenge was to make a evil dark elf in the court of the dark queen.  Faeries and elves are not my thing so I turned to the Dungeons and Dragon kids in my life for advice.  The rules of the challenge prohibit faces.  That's why the face is blank.  I'll add a face when the contest is over.

The doll has several found objects incorporated into the design.  The hair is made from Japanese toothpicks and sewing pins.  The staff that the elf is holding is an old lace bobbin.
