Marlaine Verhelst’s
Paris Doll Holiday and Workshop Week
One of the highlights every year is the Doll Holiday in Cernay La Ville in the
Parc de la Haute Vallee de Chevreuse near Versailles and Paris. During this week we make a complete doll in self-hardening clay, including clothes. Alternatively, you can also work with porcelain (sculpting head, hands and feet). The next week is from May 25th – June 1st 2024
