Dream Doll 'Lily' from Laidoll - Anyone Recognise Her?

aw its not horror stories Xenokitten : as far as I can work out all bjds need restringing sooner or later, its just with lily its sooner maybe. I've had Kefri a month next week and she's doing ok. The only problems (and this is an observation rather than a moan) is that she tends to want to tuck her feet up and sit with her dangling legs crossed. I have found that positioning her standing upright for a little while cures this (mebbe the strings straighten out or something) and she can then sit with her legs in whatever position.

Alasandalack - I so totally agree with you on the thought of restringing tho! Maybe go to a meet if you can and get someone to show you? That's what I'm going to do. First need to get some elastic tho.

 

i actually like the leg cross...it makes Sadako look like a lady! Her left knee does not straighten all the way and is a bit kicky...that's also her trick hip.

but otherwise, her stringing is very good and she can hold her poses.

 

yeah eventually all dolls need their elastic messed with, whether it's to tighten, loosen, or totally replace it. i've had meryll since early september, and she was really tight (i couldn't move her torso joint at all) but now she's to the point where she crumbles or her torso is pretty floppy hehe she used to do the crossed ankles thing but now when i sit her she just holds her heels together, but it could be just me being used to having to sit her carefully. i think the ankles crossing is something to do with the extra slit in her legs for sitting indian style.

 

Will any doll string do for restringing? I think I ought to get some ready for when we need it.

Ok those who have been wondering about shoes - I can say that leekeworld does not fit at all I got the lovely boots ordered thru a group order, and they are way too big. Kefri's feet are two inches long and the soles on the boots are three, I will get pix later before I sell them in case it is a look tha people like, but I am not keen. They can actually slip off her feet without undoing them. Such a shame, but never mind I am gonna attempt to make her some. Anyone else have any ideas where to get shoes that fit?

 

you could try Dollzone. Ruthie wears a pair of white DZ boots that came with a Nina v.1 outfit i bought secondhand. they're tall and lace up, of course, which may be why they stay on but she can stand in them.

 

the only shoes i've tried are from dollmore, but they fit n_n;; *isn't much help*

the spare elastic i have is from souldoll, it came with my miryu. however... i'm not sure where it ran off to... so i can't measure it at the moment...

i just fail at being helpful today i guess ; ;

 

Mini fee shoes from Luts fit!

 

I was wondering if normal MSD sized outfits/wigs fit lily? Right now I'm debating between a lily or a doll-zone, mainly because of price. I'm leaning towards lily because I like her face alot, plus I've heard that the doll-zones will not fit in msd clothing. They're supposedly made taller/hippier than most msd. But I was looking at their measurements and they seem quite similar to lily. So figured i'd ask .

 

My sophie tried this shoes:

her first shoes from www.pupapa.com, a little big for her slim feet but it fits well anyway:



those boots are from www.happydoll.com, i think it fits perfectly and clothes are from a petsha, skirt it fits too big for her XDD, but not the rest and the wig is from www.eluts.com: and u can see how well she poses...:








with dollzone boots, that fits very well too:



and those shoes from dollmore it fits well too:



and the clothes are from a MNfee:



and when she has not shoes i made two pair for her.
A pair of shoes; soles made with sculpey and sewn fabric the rest:



and a pair of funny boots ;p:





i hope this information can be useful!

 

how cute!!!

she's slimmer than most MSD...mine has clothes from DOD that are a little too big...DraconicMaiden's making her some things...a dress and scarves which i can't wait to get!!!

 

All of these Lilys are amazing! I ordered mine today and I can't wait until she arrives! About how long did it take for everyone to get their Lily?

 

Kiera was orderd (with a face up) on November 16, and arrived just a few days before Christmas. December 22nd or 23rd, I think.

 

Dang, I should have ordered her a week earlier

 

congrats happy-cupcake!

meryll took 11 days from the day i ordered her to the day i got her, but she had no face-up (and this was back in sept. i think)

 

she sure is cute!! I like her body...*__*

 

i got her eight days after i ordered her.

 

What size wig does Lily wear? I can't seem to find that information.

 

her head is 7 inches so she'll fit a little loosely in a 7-8 wig (can use a rubber band or something to hold it on though), and fit snugly in a 6-7 wig if it's elastic (like from monique trading corp.)

 

i think it depends on who makes the wig- mine wears a 7/8 Acquire wig with elasticized cap, and it fits perfectly

 

Hello, I also have a lily. She arrived at the beginning of January, her name is Mai.

A few pics ^^ :








I hope you like it.
