Wendy

Here is a ton of pics of Wendy the Good Witch! She is made from my own paper clay recipe and measures 14 inches tall with her Spidey Hat.  She is jointed at the shoulders and hips and her legs can be posed. Tea dyed, vintage, and new fabrics were used for her taggedy (not raggedy) dress. Her teeny shoes have leather soles with tan heels. I think she is rather sweet, don't you? 


Wendy was made with my own recipe for paper mache.  She comes as displayed only with her hat and broom and Spidey of course .  She is signed on upper her back protected with several coats of  sealant. I dug in my bag of creative tricks and designed her rad outfit. S A wooden stand and display case may be requested for an additional cost and will be done within 3 days after purchase. As with any valuable artwork store and display away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture.  Wendy the Good Witch is a one of a kind.  Cheeky Rose Boutique Original.  SOLD
