Wow, that doll's hair is thin. Doll cheerleading must be stressful.

Apparently, daughters prefer if you ask FIRST before just grabbing one of their dolls and sawing away. Or at least wait till they're fully asleep.
Sheesh. Who knew?

If you were in a real hurry, couldn't you just get one of those baby dolls that wets herself when you add water? (Usually, it's a baby girl doll) You fill it with wine...then....slurp?
Actually, don't.

Also excellent for improving the flavor of cheap, er, cost-effective wine with those light floral high-notes you only get from plasticizers and mold-release agents.

This is ideal from anyone who wants to drink from the skull of their enemy but also is enemies with dolls.

item, yeah, my bad. I'll admit to not reading the thread title as I was too busy wretching while imagining what that'd actually taste like...

All I can think of is Sam and Max's "Bad Day on the Moon":
"Give us one of those Elvis-shaped whiskey decanters."
"Yeah, we wanna drink from the neck-hole of the King."

You are more correct than you might realize.

1) Surprised it wasn't about fitting a plastic "partyware" wine glass into the dolls head.
2) Next issue: How to make a doll into a really crackin' bong in 12 steps.

At last! I can drink my victory wine from the skull of my greatest enemy!!!
Seriously, I was badly treated by dolls as a child; they are vicious little so-and-sos.

Good god, what have our children been playing with?! What tools of vile debauchery have we handed to them with our own hands?! Our very selfsame hands!

I'm imagining making a half dozen of these and keeping them on display, in with the nice china. That way when I have guests and someone remarks on them, I can say "Oh no. We only use those for very special occasions..." while making uncomfortably prolonged eye-contact.

This was brilliant though:
12. Spend a few minutes trying to saw through the stem of your plastic glass with a serrated knife — or just the knife part of your corkscrew — and then quit, because it’s impossible.
Because it so perfectly captures how I work on projects like this; when I have an interest in doing something, but not so much that I planned anything out and am just trying the random tools I have on hand.

I'm not sure what to make of the completely irrelevant shot of the doll's uplifted skirt and backside.
Anyway, I could almost imagine wanting to do something like this with clown heads, because clowns are bad and the only good clown is a clown whose severed head is holding a tasty beverage.

I stopped reading at "it’s covered in holes and therefore useless." How does it end?

Why not give the doll a fauxhawk and stare at it while drinking wine from the plastic wineglass you already have?

I see they have omitted a step -- in which it is explained to the reader why they would want to make a non-functional and creepy-as-shit wine glass out of a doll's head in the first place.

Telly Savalas had a perfectly shaped skull to drink wine from, don't you think?
Wonder where he was buried...
