In which did the concept arrive from?

My Grandmother taught me.

Explain your items:

Corn husk dolls constructed and intended by hand. The doll attire are painted and yarn is employed for their hair.  The faces are then drawn on.

How prolonged does it choose to make your solutions?

From 30 min to an hour, then 4 hours for the paint to dry.

Describe your procedure:

It is a very long system. I soak the husk in drinking water, as the husk desires to be moist. I then mould it to make the human body of the doll. Once the entire body is dry, I costume her (paint and decorate it). I include the hair at the close.

What are the selling prices of your products?

In between $3-$15, based on the dimensions.
