Cornhusk Goddess Dolls

About Cornhusk Dolls
My cornhusk dolls represent the feminine spirit of the harvest and the earth, embodying themes of rebirth, renewal, and protection. These dolls are made in the spirit of Irish "corn dollies"--woven effigies--which are traditional Irish folk charms made from the last sheaf of grain. The dolly was kept in a place of honor through the winter to ensure a good harvest the following year and was then returned to the earth in the spring. These dolls are intended to last through many harvests! 
Although I primarily create depictions of Irish goddesses, I am happy to do the research and work with you to create a doll that represents a goddess that has meaning for you, regardless of the tradition*. You can see my price list here.
(*I do not create Native American goddesses as it is a closed practice.)
