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.

Do you kiss/cuddle your dolls?

    1. Yes to kissing and hugging, usually on the wig or clothes for fear of staining their resin. I tuck my doll into bed (he has his own now, yay!), say goodnight, and pet his head :D

    2. Hmm. I'm not sure if I would or not....

    3. I definitely don't, and I feel worried even when handling them without gloves since I know the oil from my hands can cause the resin to react over time and I've seen some frightful things on very expensive dolls...

    4. Kisses just in wig, because I'm afraid to ruin the face up, but I like to cuddle and stay with them on my side while I'm doing something. :love

    5. Every time I pass them, I try to give them a little pat or kiss somewhere. My littlest doll, Hunter, definitely gets the most cuddles and kisses, since I feel bad about botching his face-up, and he's so incredibly shy. I usually go for the hair too, since I'm terrified of damaging them.

    6. I like to sit with them and cuddle. Or I'll hold one's hand idly if I'm just browsing online. I do give kisses, but just on top of their wigs, because I'm scared to wreck them. xD; And often if I'm just passing thru, I'll stroke their hair. When they start getting bald spots, I'll have no one to blame but myself hahahaha~ Poor bbys~ :aheartbea

    7. I think it's super adorable when people cuddle and love on their dolls. ^_^

    8. No, I just want to take picture and make them look pretty xD

    9. I hold them pretty close when carrying them or hold them on my lap. But I really don't kiss and cuddle them.

    10. I hold mine around sometimes in the house, maybe not so much kissing or cuddling though haha XD

    11. I usually hug Celine, in particular when I'm sad. I also kiss her on her head, sometimes. And I love having her around, so I often bring her with me and I let her sit near me when I spend time surfing the net. ^^

    12. I love kissing and cuddling my dolls- there the ones who don't want to cuddle most of the time!
       
      #372 Dreamer In A Box, Jan 24, 2015
    13. Not at all. The closest I'll get is smoothing hair a bit, but any kissing or cuddling is reserved for the cat.
       
      #373 vicemage, Jan 26, 2015
    14. I'll be totally honest and say that I do in fact cuddle them and sometimes give little kisses. I'm a pretty cuddly person in general though, I do that with lots of animals and stuffed toys.

    15. Everytime before I start posing him or when I'm about to take off my gloves and get out the room, I pet his head and rub his shoulders gently.
      If I could cuddle I would, but I'm afraid to ruin his face-up.

    16. I always kiss and hug my baby when I put her back in her box. My mom would even stare at me and I'm like "don't judge me, i came from you." haha

    17. I adore cuddling with my dolls. My 70 cm Abadon is my favorite to cuddle with. Him and I watch movies together, he sits in my lap when I game. And when I walk with him in my arms I love to have him hold my thumb while he is nestled in the crook of my arm. And yes I do kiss him on top of the head.

    18. I may when mine gets her body, right now I just brush my fingers over her hair, or brush her hair from her face, I need something to hold her wig on better so I'm trying to not handle her much so her wig doesn't fall.

    19. I don't cuddle or kiss my doll but I do tuck them into their bed, mostly cause I'm terrified of things looking at me.

    20. I
      That's the same to me. I love lookin at them and takin pictures, but I do not cuddle or kiss them. ^^ I find it kinda cute, if people do realy love their dolls like this. ^_^

      As a child I also never played with my dolls... nor have I had a Baby doll, only Barbie dolls *LoL*

      I just changed their clothe and pose them on my funitures, just to see how beautiful they are.... like now! ^^ But it's better havin a BJD than a Barbie!

      So I looove my BJD on my own way ^^
