Spare Parts Monday

The most interesting piece on this doll is the skirt. I bought it for $.25 and was told it was part of a learning toy. Holding it in your hand, you can turn it under and it has a clear marble that stays in the center.
Tha base is large wooden candle holder. The trunk of the body is a thick cardboard cone from one of my kids projects. A plastic doll head, rusty head cone, a nut and a few metal found objects.

What an interesting find. Looks like a huge skirt to me. It would have made a cool clown collar too. Hope you are feeling better.
