There are many forms of doll making such as cloth, plastic, woodwork, porcelain and more. For many years women have been creating dolls from materials such as paper, and scrap fabrics. The hair and face of the doll can be shaped any way desired by the imagination. You may do some research at your local library to find out additional information on the history of doll making.
Many women believe that the biggest problem they have is not making the dolls but marketing them. Many women turn to galleries, doll shows, craft shows, craft fairs, and the Internet to sell their dolls. You can start your own doll making business with little or no money by creating a simple cloth doll. Many doll parts can be ordered from suppliers and assembled to fit your particular design.
Doll making can be expensive when you get into making molds for mass production. The doll design can be expanded to cover all ethnic groups. For example, black dolls are very popular and are in high demand. You may join the doll association to get more information, ideas, and resources about the doll making business.
All you need are the supplies to start the business, along with your business cards, brochures, and any other available information about your products. To determine the income for a doll making business, you can start by looking at companies that sell the Barbie dolls and others who have been in business for many years.
To get additional information on cloth doll making, you should attend seminars, read books and magazines, and team up with other professionals in the field.
