I make them out of the small match boxes and use either wire or pipe cleaners for the arms and legs. This one is the colored wire. I use a soda cap for the head and a brad to keep it on. I use beads for the hands and the feet. The face is a picture of friends or family. I try to decorate the matchbox according to their personality to make it personal for them.

The photo is a bit dark. Does your doll have a face? Are the arms of pipe-cleaner wire? Did you paint it or cover it in cloth? I suppose it's from the largeer kitchen match box? Are those beads for the feet/hands? It's certainly different. Can you send an even brighter photo? : )
