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.

    1. In a way...
      I sew pretty much everything, but I buy fabrics and other materials and supplies long time ahead. My plans are really long term, the fact I work embarasingly slowly makes them even more long term -- it could easily happen I wouldn't be able to find and buy this exact fabric etc. when I finaly have the planned doll at home. So when I see something suitable for planned dolls, I buy it as soon as possible.

    2. I used to buy clothes before dolls, just to cope with waiting time after ordering my dolly :D Often clothes didn't fit and I had to buy more!

    3. I’ve bought clothing for dolls and then not bought the doll orz . I regret doing it since it was a pretty expensive outfit. The good news is that I have other dolls that can use the clothing even if it doesn’t totally match their personality. I’m going to make sure I don’t shop preemptively again however.

    4. When planning a doll, I'll often buy clothes for them off of etsy. I like having clothes, wig, and eyes at home ready to rumble for when I receive the doll.

    5. Yes, I do purchase clothing when I know a doll is coming. I always have a "new arrival" outfit for my doll. I make sure she has shoes and socks and underthings. I will also purchase other outfits for her if I see things I like.

    6. Yep. Ideally, I like to have most of the pieces for a doll in before the doll themself. It's how I pass the time waiting for them to be delivered. xD
