Do Dolls Dream - Teacup Marionette Line Discussion

Thanks! Here she is!



She was so much fun to paint!

 

@SunshineGirl She is so cute! I love the dress you gave her.
I'm getting really impatient for mine now. I wonder how long she will take. I haven't heard anything from Paulianne regarding the faceup *sigh*.

 

Thank you!! Hopefully she will be finished soon!!

 

Wow, she looks amazing! Simply so cute.

Popping my head in to say - anyone else receive the newsletter with the new prototypes? They're so precious! Quite excited to see what other pictures will be posted. Owlie's new feet are super adorable!

 

I want to get a teacup during the September 2024 preorder but I need to have an approximate idea of cost. Can anyone share how much a doll was in the last preorder? Thank you!

 

I didn't order in the last one, but you can see prices from previous preorders on her website! Petite and Teacup Marionette In-Stock 2023 - Do Dolls Dream

I hope this helps

 

Thank you for responding and for the link. It’s exactly the info that I needed. ❤️

 

You're welcome! Glad I could help! I appreciate the fact that the website shows past orders - it is quite useful.

 

For anyone who has a do dolls dream girl what is the better wig size? Also any good wig suggestions I'm looking for some and I used to shop at leeke word but that was before the bjd hobby died.

 

I'm wondering about wig sizes, too. According to DoDollsDream's website they are 6-7 and 7-8. I hope my Lottie can share wigs with my Minifee girls.
Luts is a good place for wigs, they have a big selection to choose from and the quality is always nice.

I'm still waiting for my Lottie, but last week I received in progress faceup pictures from Paulianne, so she is about 90% done I'd say and already looking adorable. Can't wait for her.

 

I got my Teacup Marionette Lullaby Maggie (3rd-hand purchase) last week. She is absolutely adorable and very whimsical.



The dress and shoes in this pic are from Aliexpress. The dress is YoSD sized, and the shoes are Blythe sized.

I wanted to ask of anyone has tried restringing these dolls' wrist pieces. I find that there no range of motion except rotation. Pretty sure it has to do with the s-hooks.
Was thinking of substituting upholstery thread for those s-hooks...
Any thoughts?

 

those are great looking shoes!! I have been trying to find some.

 

Inexpensive too! If you need a link, let me know.

 

Yes, they are supposed to be Blythe shoes. I did cross my fingers when I ordered them, as I was not sure they would fit. They do though, but tightly.

Will do. If my idea works, I'll post about it.

 

Forgot to share my Lottie here. She was probably the longest I ever waited for a doll, 8 months. But she is just adorable and probably my most spoiled doll already. But I agree, finding shoes for her is difficult.

She's so beautiful! I especially love her hair!
Which resin colour is she?

 

Thank you! Her resin colour is sweet cocoa.

 

It's very tempting to try again with these. I wasn't a fan of the way the resin felt before and was upset at the lack of sanding off print lines in some places for their price point, but changing the casting company is pretty appealing to me. I had no idea they were different companies! But she said the resin quality is much better now and heavier, which I super love, so I'm tempted to try again. Especially for Yo-SD, I love when the resin is thicker. Gives them some nice weight. They're just so cute and I love love Lullaby Lottie. But then DDD keeps releasing too many pretty colors to choose from!

 

Ohh... so with the new casting company, the resin colours are new too:



I really like the look of "Wayward Wind".
