My Doll Atelier
- Category: Working Space
- Practices: Dolls & Toys
About a year ago, my family moved to a new house, and I became the owner of my own studio. During all this year, I was involved into space organizing and only now I can say that all materials and tools took their places and I do not want to change anything.
The working area occupies one wall. There is a desk, a rack and shelves with boxes.
On the opposite side – an ironing area.
The third wall has a storage closet and a window.
The opposite wall is not functional.
Almost all furniture and interior items are from my beloved Ikea.
Always dreamed about such a thing:
My assistant — sewing machine Janome My Excel W23U.
I love notebooks but don't allow them to multiply, so I have only two. The big one is for data I always need to have at hand and not to open the laptop. And the small notebook for to-do lists for one day and the next months...
The pumpkin made for one fabulous photo shoot is now a pin cushion.
The basket of tools always should be at hand.
There are several boxes of essential triffles, scales, a calculator, stationery. The second box is for electonic gadgets.
Well, the baskets:
My first doll took her place on an upper shelf:
This year I decided to start collecting books about dolls. There are little of them, so I would be grateful if you shareв your favourite books in comments.

The rack stores materials and finished works:
I have one basket for materials that are currently in use:

The mini tour is over! I would be very glad if my story inspires you to create your personal art space at home.
