The Creation Creating a Voodoo Doll to Represent Someone
Method #1: Envision the person you have in mind.
- When making your voodoo doll, picture the person you would like the magic to affect and how you want it to affect them.
- Voodoo depends highly upon the connection between you and the Voodoo Spirits.
- It is important that the doll you make symbolizes the recipient who will gain the good or evil you intend for them in their life.
Method #2: Make a Voodoo doll with a Picture.
- One of the easiest ways to create a replica of a person as a Voodoo doll is by printing out a full-size picture of a person and sewing it together with fabric.
- Once you have the picture or printed one out, cut out the persons body and use fabric or felt for the back.
- As you begin sewing the fabric and picture together, fill the doll with stuffing.
Method #3: Make a Voodoo Doll with Personal Objects.
- Maybe you don't have a picture of the person you want to represent or you'd rather make a Voodoo Doll from something belonging to the recipient. A lock of hair, piece of clothing or jewelry will serve this pourpose.
- You will need some yarn, string, or fabric and sew or piece this simple doll together.
- Sew the object(s) you have gathered from the recipient to the doll you have created.
