Hey there!
I'm Adelė - doll maker and artist based in Vilnius, Lithuania - the land of possibilities where I get to create dolls and make a living from it! Stick around if you're drawn to the uncommon art of dolls, curious about materials, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and the real struggles and wins of a doll artist.
Beginnings
In 2013, I stepped into the magical world of art dolls. My journey began at Vilnius Art Academy, where I studied set design and puppet theatre. It was a great adventure, but after a few plays as a set designer, I knew that path wasn't for me — so I threw myself into interior dolls instead. At the time, I had no idea how much that decision would change my life. And here I am, talking to you as a full-time artist building her career from the ground up. Anything is possible, huh?
Dolls
My dolls are more than decoration - every single one has a story to tell. Each costume, each lock of hair, each tiny detail speaks to just how special and one-of-a-kind these pieces are. I love the moment a doll is finally complete: wrapped up with a ribbon and a note, like a new page added to my creative journey. I hope you can see and feel the same passion, joy, and love for life in my dolls that I do.
Tutorials
One of my greatest passions over the years has been helping fellow doll artists and hobbyists pursue their dreams in doll making. I love creating tutorials and step-by-step guides to share what I've learned and give back to the community. Visit my blog to find helpful articles and get started! If you're looking for more personal guidance and a gentle push toward your goals, consider joining my doll-making classes - with over 1000 students already learning the techniques I've developed over the years.
