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.

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

Aug 23, 2006

    1. OOOH can't wait to see pix of her new face with eyelashes. How difficult were they to do? I havent worked up to those for Kefri yet.

      I should go check out jpopdolls, mind I did buy two wigs from Aishitiri which are apparently in the post - can't wait for them to arrive!
       
    2. omg she's gorgeous!!!^^ I especially like her lower eyelashes, they look so natural. :thumbup

      :edit: on another topic - does anyone know where to get ballet slipper-style shoes that fit Lily? I want a specific kind of shoe for her with ribbons that crisscross up the lower leg (as in this design I did) but couldn't find any that fit the bill. So I figured that if I buy ballet-style flats, I can just add ribbons to them myself. But all the ballet-style shoes I found on ebay seem to be available only in SD size.:sweat

      And then I thought, maybe some of my Lily-sempai could advise me?:3 (I wouldn't mind platforms either - Rukia needs all the height she can get.:XD: )
       
    3. I dunno if the taller barbie ballet shoes would fit? I remember seeing them in TRU here, I thought 'shame Kefri wouldnt like ballet' I did wonder if the tracksuit would fit.

      Its the 'Barbie and Me ballet set' not sure if the shoes wouldnt be too soft but might be worth a go? see it here http://www.amazon.com/Barbie-Me-Doll-Fashion-Set/dp/B0007WX0TO on the other hand if they are fabric only it might be possible to dye them to the colour you want (they were...pink - surprise!) and I'm sure you could add some longer ribbon for your lovely design.

      If I can get in there soon I will go and have a look for you, I was kinda looking at the clothes when I saw it.
       
    4. Thanks for the info! but hmm... they look like they're made of polyester or a shiny synthetic. I don't think they'd take dye very well (and I'd be terrified of staining if I tried). Plus I think I could actually make those shoes. :sweat ...now there's an idea.:3

      The tracksuit's kind of cute, though, do let us know if it works out! (and wow, that's the scariest barbie I've ever seen.:nowords: )
       
    5. OK, here I go again with e-bay, but I thought that I saw some leather ballet slippers for minis listed. They weren't terribly expensive, maybe you could check them out?

      Sue - Eyelashes are not tough. All you need are some fake eyelashes (you can use cut down fake eyelashes that you use for humans if you want) and some Aleen's Tacky glue. I don't know if you have it there in the UK, but that's what I use.

      I'm waiting for my access to the marketplace to kick in so that I can do some shopping! feels like I've been here forever. :)
       
    6. mendo i love merryl's new faceup!
       
    7. thank you, both Tokiko and ReineDeLaSeine14 n_n
       
    8. i got my photos back...quite blurry will photoshop and post.
       
    9. Sarah2008: I could only find SD-sized ballet slippers on ebay, but I'll keep looking! Thanks!

      Does anyone know which other dolls' hands fit Lily? I want to get her a sword-holding hand. Since someone mentioned that Luts MiniFee shoes fit Lily, I wondered if their hands might be similar in size by extension.:)

      and still no word about my Lily...le sigh. Anyone else waiting?
       
    10. I think earlier in the thread somebody mentioned MNF hands for their lily, and it was a pretty good match n_n
       
    11. ohh thanks, I found the threadette!^^ Awesome! I wonder if those Shiwoo#2 hands can actually hold stuff.
       
    12. I'd try trading or something for the MNF hands Tokiko. There has been some controversy over Luts' resin quality lately.

      I have the thread here somewhere.....
       
    13. OK I don't know how to link this, but this is the name of the thread. I'm still waiting for a response on my brand new MNF's issue. Apparently, I'm not alone.

      Sorry about the OT discussion, but compared to my lily and soony, the resin on my new girl isn't so wonderful.

      Minifee body horrors: EDITED! New problem! Need advice!
       
    14. Hello,

      I figure I would ask this in the lily thread to ask for some help ^^;..Kaga and I just ordered our dolls directly from laidoll.com ...When I processed the order, the shipping didn't add on automaticly to the order like the company said it would. Did anyone else have this problem? And if so, how did you solve it? @_@
       
    15. not sure... I got my lily via ebay. I would try contacting them through e-mail. Tokiko says that if you put "PLEASE READ" in the title seems to get you a quicker response. Ask them about shipping. If you get the chance, post what you find out from them. This could be helpful for other people ordering directly through Laidoll.

      Thanks!
       
    16. I just e-mailed them...hopefully they get back to me soon about this ^_^...I'll definitly post what to do when ordering though Laidoll when I get this straightened out :)
       
    17. hope you find a solution...they usually respond well and quickly
       
    18. I had that exact same problem with shipping last summer when I bought my Lily. I had paid the amount (with no shipping) to Laidoll and they sent me an e-mail the next day telling me the order hadn't come through so they refunded what I had paid and I ordered again. It was all sorted out pretty quickly. I hope the same goes for you, Yanagi. :)
       
    19. Right now, I'm still waiting for their e-mail responce. Hopefully, they will get back to me soon about this, because I really want to get my dolls out asap :sweat ...When you ordered again, was the shipping added in rightway? Or did you have to add the shipping in yourself? I was very confused by that on the site x_x .
       
    20. Yanagi: if you owe them money, they're pretty quick about getting back to you.:|

      Sarah2008: Thanks for the tip-off... That's awful about your ShuShu's arm and when she was brand new too! I hope it works out for you with Luts.
