Katie Milone

So excited to see yours too!! I’m about to brew some tea and have leftover Thanksgiving pie while watching….hope you have something cozy too.

Wanda Jones

Oh My Goodness, I am so excited... tomorrow night.

Noelle Nurmi

Omg hello! No I didn’t have time for this one. But the next contest I’m gonna be on it.

Kristin Rogersdotter

About how many submissions did you receive?

Jessica Huennekens

I just found you on Instagram through another user. Did you submit anything?

Jessica Huennekens

Did you send it? She said late submissions still count. So fingers crossed

Jessica Huennekens

She announced it will be Sunday

Jessica Huennekens

I'm new too. Been obsessed with the public content for years so it's nice to be on this side of the fence. She said late submissions still count if she has them by Saturday. Fingers crossed.

Jessica Huennekens

Did you see, late submissions still count! Fingers crossed. Can't wait to see yours. I'll be reading the comments in the stream

Jessica Huennekens

Anyone else dying over this announcement?! I know many of you were still trying to send it, so please do, there is time! What a great community. Thanks for letting us know Christine 💕

oNeigeo

Thank you! I frantically shipped it out on Nov 20th with no letter. Thanks for your response. I am new here and just basking in the glory!

Katie Milone

Thanks for the support Jessica! I was trying to ship on Sunday…so the post office was a ghost town. 👻 So it was just me and my captive trying to shove too big a box into the mail slot. I bid him access outside his confinement to ship for me on the 20th while I slaved away at work yesterday 😊

Christine McConnell

Hello!! Jessica is right, the livestream will be this coming Sunday and I'm waiting to pick the winners until Saturday, so anything that arrives by then will still be included in the contest :)) I'm dying for you all to see the submissions. They have been beyond fun so far :D

Jessica Huennekens

That REALLY sucks. I'm surprised the post office wasn't more accommodating. I showed them what I had and mine picked a box, and gave me the best shipping options.

Jessica Huennekens

My guess is she will hold the live stream this Sunday and announce it this Saturday. Giving EVERYONE time (in the States) so celebrate Thanksgiving this week. Hope this helps

Katie Milone

I had mine ready on Sunday thinking I would overnight with FedEx and pay dearly for it…FedEx does not deliver to PO Boxes! Went to the post office and got a sticker to mail it from there…box too big! Went to Walmart to get a smaller box…none would fit. Oh well!! It’s what is!!! I’m still super proud of making something and totally want Christine to have it so I sent my little lady and her kitty right out yesterday.

Heather Brown

Lol!! Me too!

Jessica Huennekens

Might not qualify for the contest, but she would still love to receive it. If you worked hard on it, still give it for sure. Maybe she'll give a special Instagram post sharing the goodies. Maybe include a letter?

Jessica Huennekens

She said no rules, so I don't see why not. I'm on pins and needles (no pun intended) waiting for her to announce the next live stream

Wanda Jones

Not yet. but I am way too excited...I can't wait.

Heather Brown

I am excited to see everyone's creations!😁 Mine got delivered today so I just made it lol. I sculpted mine because I can't sew too well hope that it still counts 🤞🤞

oNeigeo

I thought it had to be postmarked by Nov 20th. I was planning to ship mine today. Should I still send it?

Jessica Huennekens

Thank you! It just showed up. I'm so nervous. I don't even care about winning, I just want her to like it.

Jessica Huennekens

I second this question

Jessica Huennekens

When is the next Livestream? Anyone know?

Brittany Gray

Thank you! I can't wait to see yours as well!

Kristin Rogersdotter

Does anyone know what date/time the next livestream will be, to see the voodoo dolls?

Kristin Rogersdotter

I'm sure it will count. I'll back you up lol

Kristin Rogersdotter

Same! I'm sure I'd love to win just as much as anyone. But mostly I want to see what everyone made and also I felt like this was just my gift to Christine because she has helped me find my creative mojo again ♥️

Wanda Jones

I can't wait to see everyone's makes.

⚜️Lauren Anderson⚜️

That’s so sweet of you to say! I’m excited to see yours too! 🤍

Jessica Huennekens

Well, no pressure, lol. Do you have a website?

Jessica Huennekens

I think you might be better than you are giving yourself credit for. Voodoo dolls are so open ended. You don't have to be a crafter to make one. Just have fun

Jessica Huennekens

My post office got a kick out of it too

Jessica Huennekens

It's my understanding that she is self taught

Jessica Huennekens

I can tell by your profile photo that yours is gonna be good. Can't wait to see it!

Jessica Huennekens

Haha, I too paid that price lol. Can't wait to see what you made

Jessica Huennekens

I feel you. Mom of 2 so I worked mine in the evenings that I could. I just hope she sees the love we put into them. I can't wait to see yours.

Jessica Huennekens

I can't wait to see it!!

Jessica Huennekens

I FINALLY mailed mine. Said it should be there 8pm Monday. I hope that counts.

Brittany Gray

Mine should be there tomorrow!

Luci Ledesma

I’m so excited about this and to see what everyone makes. I wasn’t able to put as much time into my doll as I wanted because I travel cross country for work and this project doesn’t travel well. I did what I could and I hope she likes it 😀

Luci Ledesma

Me too!!!

Kristin Rogersdotter

Like others, I just spent [mumble mumble] dollars to ship it there on time LOL. But I'm really happy with what I made and I really hope you love it. I put all my good voodoo wishes into it. I really can't wait to see what everyone else made!

⚜️Lauren Anderson⚜️

My procrastination is going to cost me a good bit in shipping, but my voodoo doll is coming your way first thing in the morning 😂🤍 i can’t WAIT to see what everyone made!

Brooks Corrigan

I sent mine today priority mail! I hope it get there by Monday!! So excited for this!!

Jennifer Lewis

I sent out mine today!

Wanda Jones

I understand it to be, received by November 20.

Wanda Jones

Mine was delivered today. I am so excited.

Marina Lucas Crapanzani

Is the shipping deadline until the 20th? Or does the doll have to arrive by November 20th?? Could anyone answer me? I'm from Brazil and the deadline was tight, I'll only be able to send it on the 15th and it takes 22 days to arrive. :( :( :(

Wanda Jones

I mailed mine yesterday and I am so excited.

Alisha Edwards

Checked the tracking info, looks like mine was delivered this morning!

Sabrina Weiss

I just put the doll i made in the mail to you tonight!!

Isabelle Angell

Just sent my creation and hopefully customs won't be too bad because they promised to deliver on the 18th, so close to the deadline >.< Fingers crossed! :D

Jenna Tontz

I’m brand new here and not a crafter but super inspired by it! Curious if Christine is also self taught in art/drawing and woodworking. That broom! Wow. Amazed!

Chrissy Raftery

I just want to say that mailing an item on Halloween with a PO box # 666 was a HUGE hit at the post office =^..^=

Katie Edge Mellor

Just posted my Voodoo on the 31st October from Scotland, hope it arrives in time! It’s my birthday on the 20th of November too. I’m so excited to see all the dolls.

Eve Reichmann

I just mailed her off today. So excited and hope you like her

willowbythewater

Are there any clear pictures of the pets posted anywhere? For reference.

Magical Wed

Hmmm let's see😵

Shelby Snow

I am so excited for this!

Isabel Bowen

Looks like something other than zebrawood this time. Cherry? Won't have time to make a doll but I'm excited to see everyone else's.

Brooke Nankin

Hard at work making this doll that will be coming to you all the way from Melbourne Australia! Ooh, I hope it gets a shout out! ❤️🦇

Tadgh Kirby

Can't enter this competition due to arthritis preventing me making much of anything lately, but good luck to all those who can enter. :)

Stacey Kirkbride

Personally, I think that's better that people win based on skills; written, crafting, sewing or otherwise. Christine has done just simple contests too where you just enter.

Mateus Itzcoatl

Oh Im drowning with uni stuff but Im toman do my beat to maje something this sounds sooo fun

Jess

It's not even about the wallpaper for me. I mean don't get me wrong that would be amazing 🤩! If Christine just said mine was good that would be reward enough for me! Love you Christine!!

Jess

I am so sorry to hear this. I feel for you. Prayers and condolences.

Jess

I bet she will have other categories for all of you "outta towners".😉

Jess

There are going to be three more contests is what I understand. This is just the craft division. She will probably give opportunity for other creatives to show their special talents.

Jess

Me too! I have been feeling so empty lately. This has breathed a little life back into me!

Katie Milone

I have no idea how this project will turn out but the process has been super fun and happy to get those creepy juices flowing!!

Danielle Gutierrez

That is a fantastic craft idea!! I'm so excited to make one!! 🖤🦇💜

Melissa Peterson

I am so late to this !!! October is much a busy month for me . But I am gonna start now !!!! I don’t make dolls but I am gonna creep it up and get these hands busy 🪬🔪

Reba Hensley

I think this is a bit inclusive. If one doesn't have any creative abilities, well then....too bad for you. Just saying.

Cheryl Skaggs

Getting ready to mail in my voo doo doll. Can’t wait for you to get it!

Amy Eplawy

This is so exciting! I cannot wait to see what fellow patrons conjure up for this contest. To all of us that may not be able to participate for various reasons, I hope we can support those that do in the making of these “curious creations”. Counting down the days to see the entries from this community.

Wanda Jones

Working hard on this project.

Jotei

Same :c

Jotei

It's such a cool project, but not very doable for those Patrons, who live outside of US :(

Jesse Fraser

Is drawing okay to do? 👀

Deborah Wiltshire Whaley

Perfect address! 🦇 I am a doll maker so this is very exciting for me! Looking forward to the 23rd💗

AliLou Creations

I’m in Liverpool England, I’m going to start on my doll tomorrow I hope I can send it to you in time,and the cost isn’t my monthly mortgage payment, , we lost one of our fur babies today “Pepper” she was a beautiful Yorkshire terrier, she has been poorly for couple of months now and had to have daily visits to the vet , she had a very bad seizure this morning and wouldn’t come out of it , our whole family is just devastated making the doll will keep me busy I need too

IDreamtOfManderleyAgain

I was thinking this too, I got super excited to participate but I also got a bit concerned, maybe poppet or spooky vintage dolls in general might be the most appropriate? Suggesting only with love and respect.

Rebecca Stone

I can't wait to see what halloween plans there are. big or small. i love this little communities unique weirdness lol I won't be taking part in the competition but good luck to everyone who is x

autumnal_nostalgia

I would love to be part of this contest. But I live in germany and Building the doll, send it in in time to NY and the shipping costs are definitely factors that make it uneasy for people outside america. But I‘m also very exited to see all the creepy and beautiful creations of all the creative hearts out there 🥰

Wanda Jones

So excited working on my VooDoo Doll.

Brandy Byhoffer

Not the P.O. Box being 😈 LOL

RemexBella

I thought of another! This P.O. Box # is HELLarious! 👻

RemexBella

Lol 😂 the P.O. Box address couldn’t have been more perfect! If I was a Bostonian I would say its hella wicked! 😈

Racheal Jones

Fantastic idea!

Laurel McKenzie

I’m so excited! I’ve started on my doll already!

Rochelle Wiechers

What an awesome idea! I absolutely adore you and definitely want to be you when I "grow up". Thank you for all the amazing content and the belief and inspiration that just maybe I can make that too <3

Kathleen Fernandes Boucas

Thank you so much Sherrie! Very kind of you! 🥰

lindsay

time to start grinding away!! what a fun project to show everyone's skills and creativity

Sherrie Potgieter

You can definitely do it, David!! 😉

Sherrie Potgieter

Welcome to the family, Kathleen!! You have a lot of videos to catch up on 😊

Wanda Jones

This is exciting, time to create.

Natalie74

What a fun contest. It may be tricky for me as I’m in Australia and not sure it will get to you in time. However, I would love to see what everyone else does. So excited. Would also love to see all the entries.

Kathleen Fernandes Boucas

I’ve just joined Patreon just for you and I’m so excited to be here ! Watching your videos on YouTube made me so much more patient with my projects and I love that! Can’t wait to deep dive into your Patreon content.

Brenda Hunt

How fun!! I will be making one!!

Leslie Langenegger

Can't wait to see your Halloween projects! The broom handle looks amazing already!! Did you get to choose your po box number? How fun! Are you ready for a lot of dolls? lol

Erin

Love this contest idea! In your Livestream you wondered if voodoo was an appropriate term for someone who isn't a descendants or current practitioner of voodoo. I think poppet would be a better term if you want to err on the side of caution! 🖤

Tegan Desjardins

So SO exciting! Can't wait to see what everyone makes! What a fun idea 🖤

Shannon R

So excited to see the entries!

Megg Sohn

Christine PLEASE post photos of all the entries so we can see. How fun!

Clairomancy

I can already see it. A delicate porcelain figurine of Prof. Poof sitting innoccuously on the vanity - a vintage display piece, perhaps a collector's item? Unbeknownst to visitors, a cavity in the doll holds the key to the captive's enduring silence. Cat got your tongue?

Ryan Love

May I suggest taking all the submissions that aren’t chosen and hanging them on your Christmas tree this year? That might look really cool!!

Jess

That pic is creepy as hell and I want to see what it is!!!👻☠️

Anna Hillman Forsberg

Great to see al that comes in!

Mardi Shakti

hahah... P.O. Box 666...

Karysa HorrorHoneysKitchen

Omg how funnnn!!! I can’t wait to see how these turn out

Ester Brunini

BethW

David Baker

I hope I can make one and send it in time (all the way from England) :D

Judy Campanella

Way to bring out the spooky creatives!! Can't wait to see what people come up with. Love the new po box address too, lol.

CHOCOMILLIONAIRE

What a great idea! Then all the patreon creeper's energy can live in one place

Nikki Davison

That PO box address is a score XD

Alexis

Yes! This will be so much fun!

Ellerie “Sit in Your Tears” Maddox

Hahahah your PO Box 🤣🤣

Sarah's UK graveyard

I'm definitely doing this even if it's only to have my creation in the house xx

Tanya Von Black

I love this idea!!!! We had voodoo dolls made of ourselves as our wedding cake toppers ❤️ cannot wait to see what everyone enters 🔮

Cariushka

I hope you got the biggest PO Box in the world. 😃
