Kitchen Witch Dotee- Dotee Addicts!

Hi everyone! I'm glad to be a new officer for the group, I'll try to add a new idea for a Dotee each month. If you have any ideas, just PM me.

For this swap you will make one Kitchen Witch Dotee for your partner. If you don't know what a kitchen witch is, I put a description and the history here for you. My mom had one hanging in her kitchen for years, it had the neatest saying along with it. That's what brought on the idea for this swap.

A kitchen witch, sometimes called a cottage witch or a "Scandinavian" kitchen witch doll, is a poppet or homemade doll resembling a stereotypical witch or crone displayed in residential kitchens as a means to provide good luck and ward off bad spirits.

History-

There is some debate over the exact country in which the kitchen witch originated, some claiming Norway and others Germany, but consensus points to it stemming from older European customs.

The poppet is supposed to depict a "good" witch who inspires productivity and safety in a kitchen, but also counteracts any ill-will directed to the home. It is considered good luck to give a kitchen witch to a friend or family member. So that those unfamiliar with the kitchen witch can understand its meaning, sometimes a note will be hung around the witch's neck stating something similar to:

"The Legendary Secret of Goof-Proof Cooking: The Famous Kitchen Witch

For centuries, Norwegians have hung this good witch in their kitchen. They believe she has the power to keep roasts from burning, pots from boiling over, and sauces from spilling."

Please send a cute saying for the Dotee, like the saying above or one that you've made up.

The Dotee Doll should follow the usual size guidelines, 4"-6" and have a tail and a hanger. If you'd like to add arms/legs for this one, that is fine. This swap is international due to its lighter weight
