Talula – Guardian Witch doll

This is ‘Talula’ my very own Guardian Witch doll I sew her by hand using beautiful old materials gathered over the past years Inside her body I hid some musky incense and a small pouch filled with dried sage (for protection) is hung around her neck Talula is a doll I made for myself and is not for sale I will be taking commissions for dolls like her (Guardian Witch Dolls) made with the client in mind, adding personal belongings supplied by you, inducing the doll with magical powers for protection and guidance!
