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 take along your dolls on holiday?

    1. I'm currently on a mission trip in Haiti. While I was packing for my 6 month adventure my mom asked me if I was going to bring any. I had decided not to because I thought it would be weird.

      She told me "you need to bring one of your dolls along, you'll get lonely without them." XD
      I brought my tiny with me in my carry on! Hazelnut in Haiti!

    2. If I were going on an extended trip, I might take my MSD with me and leave the SDs in the care of my sweetie. I actually have some off-topic tinies that go with me everywhere.

    3. That's fantastic, Dove_Heart! Good for you, having the bravery to accompany a mission trip and giving your time and talent. Any profession those women can learn is always a step in the right direction... and out of the slums. And yay, Hazlenut!


      I am that nut who brings their dolls everywhere, even during day trips or grocery runs. I like to look for photo opportunities; there is a method to my madness. That and I simply enjoy the feeling of holding a nice piece of resin. They make great 'irritant spray' as well- someone who might have bothered you otherwise will usually back off because 'Ohey creepy doll! Do not want!'

    4. Yes, I would. I already purchased a BJD travel bag and wrap!

    5. Dionnysia: the tinnies are just so much easier to travel with! XD

      Loptr: Thanks!! I've learned so much here! Surprisingly even people on short term trips who we host tend to like my doll. ^.^ Carrying then with you is a fun way to sort out judgmental people from potential friends!

      Moonlightunicorn: Sounds like your well prepared!

    6. I always take dolls on vacation with me! They give me a lot of comfort, and I get chances for nice pictures.

    7. Not really, but that's because I'm travelling as a single mum with three kids in tow (6 year old twins and a 1 year old at the moment), and I just don't have much spare time. Also, I'm usually travelling in summer to places like the beach and I don't like subjecting dolls to that level of heat (we camp in tents, no A/C for the week).

      But I like the idea of bringing my dolls along?

    8. I love to take my dolls on my holiday~! It was hard for me to bring my big one that is 66cm with me, but I own a small boy which is YOSD that can allow me to easily bring to all of my vacations I ever had.
      I brought him to Bangkok-Thailand, Taiwan, and I planning to bring him to my next destination that is Japan~

      I posted some nice pics on my vacations. they are on my flickr! :)

    9. Yes, but if it's crowded she usually stays in her sunglasses case.

    10. I always try to bring one or two of my dolls with me when I go on a vacation. It's not that hard to travel with them. I usually stuff the bodies in my suitcase and wrap the heads nicely, and put them in my purse. I think of the photo opportunities I would miss if I didn't bring a doll with me.

    11. I do with my Tonners dolls, and have with my IP Evan. However, my nieces discovered him and that was a potential disaster (they are 3 and 6).

    12. If it is a long vacation then yes, i ususally take 1 msd doll with me. If its a short trip I wouldnt rist taking my doll with me because I am always afraid to damage it.

    13. I haven't taken any vacations with my doll yet, but if I did, I would take her everywhere.

    14. Took my girl to Japan! She stayed in the apartment almost the whole time though. I wish I took her out more but I always forgot or it was a day where I wanted to go out light. I managed to pick up some cute things for her though!

    15. I'm back from my vacation! I was only able to take the boys out to the beach once, but I was able to take some pictures of them around the house we had rented. There's more pictures of them at the beach/beach house on my flickr!

      THis was such a nerwrecking experience...I'll be honest. It was an 11 hour car ride down there, I don't have a proper bag to fit them both in so they can lay out and be strapped down, and the car was packed. I was SO nervous...but, very thankfully, nothing bad happened going down there, during the trip, or going back home. But....it was TOTALLY worth it.

    16. Most definitely, I take my doll when I'm on a holiday. I try to pack as little clothing as I can so I can carry her travel case ( so no need to pass it as luggage). Of course, I need to be careful with the sun and stuff but in general, it's okay.

    17. I took my doll when I was an exchange student ^^
       
      #137 golo, Jun 19, 2015
    18. I do, sometimes. If I have enough time to take photos of them. If I'm going with friends, then probably not. I've brought my Pongpong to Korea when on exchange, and also to Japan but I didn't really take photos, haha.

    19. I'm taking a trip to the British Isles in September and plan on taking a doll with me. Haven't decided yet which one but probably either my Lati White or Amelia Thimble.

    20. I wish i could say that i do, but i do not take my dolls out of the house (bar the back garden). My family accept my hobby but i don't think i would have the courage to take one on holiday for fear of ridicule. That being said i do have a tiny on order who will be my handbag/travel companion. That comfort of home when i am away.
