A doll is a favorite toy not only for children, but also for many adults, for whom it becomes an object of artistic creation or collecting. The craftsmen who create the dolls claim that these man-made creatures have a soul. The dolls shown at the Flowers-2010 exhibition by the participants of the floristic show of the EF-Design school definitely had it. They contain not only the soul of their creators - florists, but also the historical memory of entire nations. The participants in the show themselves learned a lot about the prehistory of the images they presented, and hours of painstaking manual ore followed the research work. I would like to extend the motto proclaimed by one of the participants to all this magnificent action: "While enjoying the beautiful - study!"

Pandora

For each doll, a whole wardrobe was created, in simpler clothes she traveled, and in more expensive clothes she went out. Even the generals let it through without hindrance.
