This is a fantastic video for doll makers and designers and anyone else who is interested in dolls. It is very sad in places and filled with great joy in others and shows how being creative can help women in many ways. To see elinor peace bailey is a visual delight in itself.The other artists are also amazing. I loved this video and watched it over and over again....you will get so much from it...it is an inspiration to me and I can't recommend it highly enough!

This documentary is a peek into the world of some of the our most billiant doll artists. It is a look at the personal side to their dollmaking, what got them started, the processes they go through while creating a doll, etc. I recommend this dvd for any dollmaker.
