Skulls and dolls are an unlikely combination; however, Etsy maker DolliPopVintage beautifully mixes the two. The Monticello, Arkansas-based shop owner Erica uses her skills as a professional tattoo artist to make these incredibly upcycled dollies during her spare time. Intricate doodles and vivid colors rescue these secondhand lost dolls into little Day of the Dead senoritas.
Each of the vintage toys are impeccably upcycled, hand-painted and re-dressed by Erica. It is easy to appreciate the patience and labor that goes into the extraordinarily edgy dollies.
Anyone can provide these DolliPopVintage creations with a good home by heading over the Etsy page. These one-of-a-kind dolls are available to purchase for approximately $100 to $150 USD, making a great gift for those still young at heart.
