1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    Being a daughter of the royal family, Elisolde grew up in a palace. She always felt out of place. Her skin too pale for her auburn locks, her body too plump, too freckled, her movements too awkward to fit in between all the beautiful dresses and ornate grandeur of the palace. While growing up it becomes quite clear to her that others, too, agree that she isn't a beauty, and that others seem to pity her. She learns about the world outside and the more she learns, the more she starts to despise who and where she is. Why is it, that the people outside have to live in poverty, while she and everyone else in court wears the most amazing silks? Why is it that the castle is adorned with scrollwork and ornately curved iron fences, while out there, people grow hungry? She despises beauty and everything that is considered beautiful.

    One day, Elisolde decides to run away. She finds a place with a blacksmith’s family, and there she learns a lot about herself. She learns things, from the blacksmith, his wife, and all the neighbors in the town. She learns that the iron fences that the palace commissions can feed a family for a long time. Also, it becomes so boring if you have to make simple, straight fences all the time. And a knitted sweater with ornate colorwork worked into the design, is twice- or even three times as warm as a simple plain sweater, because all the threads for the different colors run in the back of the fabric making it thicker. So, beauty can have a purpose, too?

    Elisolde grows more beautiful every day. Her skin is colored by the sun. Her body grows strong. Her auburn locks fade lighter with every passing day, until her hair is a perfect snow white. How? Was her hair being dyed all this time? What does this mean? Is she really the king’s daughter? There are a lot of things to learn and a lot of things to find out. How is her heritage linked with the strange things happening in the world?
