In folk-magic and witchcraft, a poppet is a doll made to represent a person, for casting spells on that person. These dolls may be fashioned from such materials as a carved root, grain or corn shafts, a fruit, paper, wax, a potato, clay, branches, or cloth stuffed with herbs. The intention is that whatever actions are performed upon the effigy will be transferred to the subject based in sympathetic magic. If the spell is a curse, the poppet is either pierced with pins, nails or shards, bound with cord, covered with hot candle wax or hung by the neck.

Types of Poppets

Poppets can be used for healing purposes, promoting health, finding love, creating happiness and good luck, for protection, for binding, cursing, and for manipulating energy in numerous other ways. Poppets come in several forms, including wax, cloth stuffed with herbs, paper, wood, root, clay, and in more contemporary forms such as tin foil and cling wrap.

Wax Poppets

To make a wax poppet, coat you hands with a few drops of essential oil, and mold a shape out of softened wax and adorn it with stones, beads, or draw names or symbols into the form. You can add hair or nail clippings or some other personal effect of the intended recipient.

Cloth Poppets

Cloth poppets are rudimentary human forms made out of fabric. To make a cloth poppet, cut a figure form out of cloth (2 pieces) and stitch almost all the way up. Leave a space to fill with herbs, moss, hair, or whatever the spell calls for. For figure templates, click here.

Paper Poppets

To make a paper poppet, draw a figure on a piece of card stock or parchment paper and cut it out. On the paper doll, draw symbols and write the name of the intended recipient of the spell. You can affix a photo onto the face if you have one.

Root Poppets

Root poppets can be made out of naturally shaped roots that look like figures, or they can be carved out of root vegetables like potatoes. In the past, they have been made out of mandrake roots or ginseng which can look amazingly human in form.

Clay Poppets

Clay poppets are molded out of any number of types of clay. In New Orleans, a traditional type of Voodoo doll involves constructing the head out of the clay from crawfish holes. Create a hollow space in the clay to place personal effects of the spell recipient, or fill with special herbs or drawn symbols and then seal. Paint or adorn the clay accordingly.

Wood Poppets

Wood poppets can be made in a number of ways. One way is to simply nail a couple of pieces of scrap wood together as shown in the picture (left). Another way is to carve a figure form out of soft wood. Glue hair to the head or yarn representing hair, and paint the wood with acrylic paint. You can paint symbols, names or paint clothes, or a face. You are limited only by your imagination.

A contemporary take on the construction of poppets is offered by Starfields at Magic Spells and Potions. When the availability of other items is limited, or if an easy to use material is needed in a pinch, try cling wrap (cling film). A complete tutorial can be found here.

It just goes to show you that a Voodoo poppets can be made out of absolutely anything!
