About this Event

Dive into the world of doll-making and creativity in this exciting workshop, where you’ll have the chance to create your own Tiny Tots or Nubian Princess doll from scratch! The class begins with cutting, sewing, and assembling your doll’s body, followed by designing the perfect outfit—either a sundress for Tiny Tots or a wrap top and skirt for the Nubian Princess. Once your doll is assembled, you’ll have the option to add a stylish head wrap or create custom hair (which is an additional class), with guidance on braiding, styling, and personal touches. This hands-on workshop offers opportunities for added creativity, allowing you to craft a unique doll that reflects your personal style and vision. Whether you prefer a simple sundress or more intricate cultural styling, you'll leave with a one-of-a-kind creation you're proud to show off! A sewing machine and basic sewing tools are needed for this class. If you don't have one please contact me ASAP @ (404)409-7394

Please note: In our classes and workshops, the dolls you create are faceless because face painting is a detailed and delicate process that requires additional time to create and in between each step they must dry properly. Over the years, I've perfected my face-painting techniques and found that to ensure the best results, it’s important to let the painted faces set completely before finalizing them, which takes about 24 hours.

For this reason, we focus on building and assembling your doll’s body during class, leaving the face as the final touch. If you'd like a beautiful, custom face added, I would be happy to paint your doll for you after the workshop for a small fee of $10.

This approach allows you to complete the hands-on crafting process in class while ensuring that your doll’s face is done with care and precision. Once the face is painted, your doll will be ready for you to enjoy and display!
