  1. super cute!

  2. UGLY & CREEPY

  3. I love this, am going to make loads for my party favours. so cool.

  4. How odd and uninformed to call a voodoo doll pen (meant, I am quite sure, in jest) to satanism. Voodoo is actually a religion itself and doesn’t, regardless of what some insist on thinking, have anything to do with satanism.

    I think it’s a clever idea for a Halloween party. (Halloween doesn’t celebrate satan either, in case you were wondering.)

  5. Very poor choice. All we need is more satan crafts.

  6. this is too funny. I’m going to make and give out as party favors at my Halloween party.

  7. love it

  8. hmmm…too creepy…

  9. I love the idea but I would think wrapping with yarn, crochet thread or ribbon would produce better looking results.

  10. Fab idea, I love it!

  11. kinda ugly..
