Sugga Plum


Sugga Plum - the rock'n'roll tooth fairy altered doll.

Sugga-sugga, awww honey, honey, you are my candy girl, and you got me wanting you....
(who sang that?!)
I'm a doll, I'm evil,
I WILL get  MY OWN way!


I have long been a fan of altered dolls and have spent the last few years having a bit of a dabble and procrastinating over altering dolls in the style of the fabulous Clarissa.

I am not a lover of dolls for many rebellious reasons and don't get me started on clowns (shudder).  I found both creepy for a long time and more recently at the doll hospital in Lisbon, Portugal, it was rather freaky to be in a room full of dolls and doll parts, like the day of the dead!


I had no idea when I started this doll what it was going to be, I wanted something funky or grungy and quite how I finished up with a tooth fairy is beyond me, it's just the way the doll evolved - see, they are freaky! It took care of its own destiny! I don't do pink, bling, fluffy, pretty.... so what happened here?!

Sugga Plum the tooth fairy is a bit rock and roll - check out her crown!


Does my bum look big in this?!
The cloth body was coloured with fabric inks stuff from Birds in the Barn, Coggeshall, as was the white fabric ribbon.  Do pop in for a chat about the fabric colouring kit and their fabulous funky ribbons.  Lots of great stamps, masks, paints... well lots of fabulous stuff you absolutely NEED in there!

I just love my crown of crowns

 "I just can't believe the loveliness of loving you"

Thank you for popping by
