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.

DreamHigh Studio Discussion Thread - Part 2

Oct 27, 2015

    1. Got this response:

      Hi,

      I'm sorry it can't be cast in green.
      The skin color will be normal color.

      I don't have plans yet to release it in green skin color.


      Oh well. Paint it is.
       
    2. Yeah got me one too..male?female? Just love that face..so will see....love the size i think it is close to pukifee..and i think it will be fun making outfits for it because they need imperfection...
      Have to make a little space for it to live in......did i really say that? oh my
       
    3. if you really like it green, you can always decide to dye it later

      i think this size will be fun to sew for. i like my teeny elves like toupee and realpukis, bit having one just a bit bigger gives more scope for embellishment
       
    4. Hi all! Does anyone know how long it takes for them to ship out the preorders for the Owlet? Ordered April 1st and have not heard from them yet. :)
       
    5. according to the website it is 70 business days. usually that count doesn't start till all the preorders are in, so it depends on when it closed, rather than your order date. then 70 business days is about 3-1/2 months

      it depends too on whether you got painted or blank, since i believe he does all the painting himself
       
    6. Restringing the very tinies is a REAL challenge! Two of my Squees completely fell apart...I was afraid at first...but managed to get it done just fine....but I am embarrassed to tell you how long the elastics started out in this process!!!!

    7. does anybody know what kind of elastic will work with the dream high studio faun mine needs restringing he wont even sit up anymore
       
    8. That' s the only thing i don't like about dreamhigh the very thin elastic that stretches out way to fast..i did have to restring all of them....not sure what elastic he used in his big doll...but i hope aldou will have stronger elastic
       
    9. Oh really? I've never restrung a doll before. Is it hard? And what elastic is good for them?
       
    10. not sure how it is all called.. the tiny ones have thin clear elastic...my micro ones didn't need new elastic, but pepper and kura did.
      odilia and odile and my feilene's are still ok, so perhaps it was only, but my deer needed new elastic, so some did some don't not sure if it is the elastic...but if I restring I use white elastic which is a little stronger.
      I didn't find the restringing difficult, you just have to be carefull.
       
    11. clear elastic sounds like the stuff you can get to knit into cuffs it;s called "knit in elastic" or "stitch in elastic" here
       
    12. The clear elastic used in the tiny dolls is jewelry elastic. Stretch Magic is one brand I have seen.
       
    13. oh, that makes sense. it would be heavier than the knit in stuff- which i think would only be really suitable for the micro bjds.
       
    14. Has anyone seen all the faceupped Aldous on the Facebook page, which I totally haven't been stalking? :love Say, if mine is blank, does that mean it will get here faster? I haven't seen a waiting room, so all I have to go off of is their Facebook and the 70 business days estimate they put up. And I think I saw a line about a "new one". Is he working on another elf already?

    15. ah where did you see it....can't see it on donny's facebook?
      I orderd a blank one too....but I think it will still take a while before they will arrive?...hope not..
       
    16. Fingers crossed. I really hope so :D!

      Can't wait to see Aldou get to you guys! I'm really looking forward to seeing what people do with him. Especially face-ups on blank faces. He's got such unique features, I wonder what aspects unique face-ups will bring to his character :) Hopefully not too long to wait for you all :)
       
    17. I hope donny will make more of these characters in this size like toopee and gooble etc...love those faces

    18. Here it is, it was shared on the company page from one of his artists, I believe, not his personal one: Kwong Linda
       
    19. ah thank you...I orderd without face-up. I hope it means they are coming soon!
