Since the IADR is about promoting our members, let us know if you are participating in any shows or events and we will happily get the word out about it.  The IADR is about supporting each other and what we do *smiling* whether it is one of our own events or one you are involved in.

2026 IADR CONVENTION PLANNING COMMITTEE will be having their next meeting on Wednesday July 16th, 2025 at 9 am MST (which is 5 pm in Italy).  Do you want to be a part of it?  Then drop me an email at [email protected] so that I can include you in the chat group and send you the Zoom link. 

From specific tutorials like Sculpting Hands with Deb Wood or China Painting Eyebrows from MisPlace Dolls, that is just the beginning.  There are also a Costuming section, a Wing section, and even a little bit of Miscellaneous to look at.

These resources have all been generously donated to the IADR library and they are free to IADR members.  Also this is another way to get involved!!   We are in need of some helpful tips or inspiration for the Fiber Arts as that interest grows.

Also think "Marketing"!  What do I mean by that?  When a tutorial or project idea is sent to the IADR library, it can be linked back to the person who supplied it.  This is a great way to cross-market for those that have websites.  Also, if you have supplied tutorials for the IADR Art Doll magazine, I don't automatically add them to the library.  I'll try to get better about asking about that because when a tutorial or project is submitted to the IADR Library, there is a reference to who supplied it.  This gives the person name recognition and if they share links how they can be found (for those that don't have websites) - that can help their social media platforms grow.

Let's keep our IADR library healthy by using it and adding to it.  If you wish to add tutorials or projects, send them to [email protected].
