About us

We are a group of dedicated doll artists, and antique doll and bear collectors with a wide and diversified range of knowledge who want to see our hobby and the passion for our hobby stay alive by promoting the love of dolls and bears at our meetings, competitions and shows.

​

Over the years we have had many world-renowned artists come to participate in our shows and teach workshops, from advanced hair rooting, to painting using various mediums, to sculpting a doll from scratch.

​

We are always happy to hear what “you” would like to see and do at our shows.

​

In addition, it is important for us as a group to give to those less fortunate by donating a sum of money each year to a charity.

​

In conjunction with our competition and display we have demonstrations and workshops available for all to attend.

​

Annual Competition and Show

Following our AGM today (7th March 2024) the committee decided to have a break from doing a show this year. There are various reasons for this.

 

Our monthly meetings will continue but they will be a bit more socially oriented such as craft and other activities.

​

One of the proposed activities is painting some reborn dolls for donation to residential care homes.

​

We would like to thank all those who have supported us in many different ways over the last ten years and we hope to see you all again in the future.

​

Demonstrations

We have been very lucky over the years to have had many great local artists give up their time to do Reborn Doll demonstrations from hair rooting, to using powders, to using air dry paints. These demonstrations are free, so come and have a play. Don’t be afraid to ask questions; there is always someone willing to help.

​

Workshops

Each show we try to offer workshops that allow the doll maker to grow in their hobby, perhaps by trying different methods of painting, or types of paint, or to try their hand at something new, like sculpting.

Please let us know what you would like to do or learn!
