Welcome to the soul doll studio
Welcome to Soul Doll Studio. We’re not your grandma’s craft club. This is about story, edge, raw creativity, and the kind of art that hits you in the gut. Here, dolls aren’t toys they’re peices of soul stitched , felted, wired, and worn with meaning.
MEET YOUR TEACHER
I’M SHELLY ANN SZIGLI - DOLL-MAKER, ARTIST, BUILDER, MOTHER, TEACHER. I WEAR A LOT OF HATS, AND NONE OF THEM ARE POLISHED. MY WORK IS ROOTED IN WOOL, WIRE AND FIRE, BUT IT’S ALSO ROOTEDIN THE DARKER SIDE OF LIFE- GRIEF, LOSS, SURVIVAL. I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO BREAK AND REBUILD.
THE DOLLS I MAKE AREN’T PRETTY ORNAMENTS. THEY’RE RAW, ALIVE, STICHED WITH STORY AND GRIT. THEY HOLD THE EDGES OF LOVE AND SHADOW, THE PLACES MOST PEOPLE AVOID. SOUL DOLL STUDIO IS MY WAY OF PUTTING THAT TRUTH INTO FORM - REAL, UNFILTERED AND IN MOTION.

A DOLL MADE JUST FOR YOU
FACILITATION, NOT FLUFF
WE TEACH THE SOUL DOLLS APPROACH- A WAY TO BRING DOLL-MAKING INTO CIRCLES, CLASSROOMS, COMMUNITIES AND REAL-LIFE. THIS ISN’T THERAPY. IT’S NOT TOP-DOWN. IT’S HUMANS MAKING ART TOGETHER WITH STORY, AND RESPECT AT THE CENTRE.
IF YOU WANT TO LEAD GROUPS, HOLD SPACE, AND SHARE THIS CRAFT IN A WAY THAT FEELS GROUNDED AND BADASS, THIS TRAINING IS FOR YOU.
RAW ESSENCE. REAL MAGIC.
THIS IS’T A DOLL YOU PICK OFF A SHELF- THIS IS A LIVING REFLECTION OF YOU. EACH CUSTOM SOUL DOLL IS CHANNELED, SCULPTED, AND STITCHED BY HAND, STANDING ABOUT 8 INCHES TALL AND INFUSED WITH INTENTION. WHETHER SHE EMERGES AS A FIERCE GUARDIAN, AN ACESTRAL KEEPER, OR MUSE WHISPERING REMINDERS FROM BEYOND THE VEIL, SHE’S BORN THROUGH STORY, SYMBOL, AND SPIRIT.
