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.

Haru Casting Adori Discussion

Jan 27, 2016

    1. Thanks! It is the name of a friend I had back in elementary school that the Adori sculpt reminds me of.

      I got her in Milky tan. It was hard to choose the color but I wanted something that wouldn't wash out in photos and also wasn't too shiny and this tan is a bit more matte than some of the others.
       
    2. Oh that's cute, naming your dolls after an old friend. It certainly is a beautiful color and it doesn't look shiny! I also had a hard time choosing a color, I changed my mind many times...I don't even remember what I chose lol
       
    3. Ah I'm so sad! I missed the postman today and my adori had arrived. Have to pick them up tomorrow at the post office.
       
    4. thank you!:D:thumbup
       
    5. She is so cute! I love the name as well!
      I ordered through Flickr as well. Are the Adori's wearing a size 6-7 wig? I hope so!
       
    6. Kimi is wearing a 5/6 wig.

      Haru Casting said the Adoris fit 5/6 wigs and 12 mm eyes that are low or no dome. Unfortunately, I haven't purchased eyes for her yet as none of the places I looked online indicate the dome height. If anyone has suggestions for how to find eyes for her, I would really appreciate it.
       
    7. My Adori wears a 6/7 wig and eyes from Safrin doll. They sell low dome urethane eyes, they are also reasonably priced !
       
    8. Adori is so precious he's the only YoSD I've ever wanted...
      And Harucasting is such a wonderful company I want to support them!
       
    9. Fortunately, I have both 5-6 and 6-7 wigs. I even have a pair of 12mm eyes (I rarely sell my wigs/eyes). Since my Adori got out of customs, I am hoping for delivery tomorrow :)
       
    10. My Adori is still in Sw. Yeongtong. I have a formydoll 6-7 wig for her and 12mm eyes from Mehi Art (those are low dome). Her other head will be getting 12mm mako eyes (also low dome). ^.^
       
    11. My Adori came today! She is wearing borrowed eyes and doesn't have a name or a faceup, but I just love her! It is fun to see the Adoris rolling in!

    12. Thanks for the info about the wig size! In the first post of this thread it calls for a 6-7" wig so I ordered that size for my Adori. It arrived today and it fits my slim MSDs but it's too big for two of my YoSD dolls.

      For those who are using a 6-7" wig - are they on the small size or not very stretchy? The 5-6" I bought is shown on a Littlefee on the Oobiedoll website. Does anyone have a Littlefee that they can compare with their Adori? Do they wear the same size wig?

      Thank you so much!
       
    13. The wig on my Adori above is a 6-7 Kemper and it fits well. I just tried an FMD 5/6 and a Luts 5/6 and they were definitely not big enough. A true 6 might fit.
       
    14. I found the 6-7 is roomy, but the 5-6 was too small. So, I will get my Adori a wig cap to keep the wig in place.

    15. Jaybirdfinnigan, I love the rainbow sweater that your Adori is wearing. It's adorable and fits her smile! Did you make it yourself?

      CathyM - did your Adori behave at work? He looks a bit mischievous!

      Thank you all for the wig information. I think the 6-7" wig that I bought must be super sized because it fits my SD DZ Minas the best! It was still loose on my MSD size dolls so I tried it on my smaller SD heads. No wonder it drowned my YoSDs. I think I'd be safe ordering a 5-6 in the same style.
       
    16. Thank you very much! I did make it myself. It used to belong to my Littlefee, but I think it belongs to Adori now! Good luck with the wig. Wigs and eyes - always such a struggle!
       
    17. I don't know how people can knit such small things! I've seen the tiny needles used and am truly amazed by the tiny creations. Yes, I think the rainbow belongs to Adori!
       
    18. If a 6-7 is a little too big, you can also try pinning in it in the back with a small safety pin or sewing it smaller. If the wig is way too big, you end up with a bobble head though. Some of my yo's wear 7-8 like that.
       
    19. Thanks! I went to the Fabric and friends trunk show yesterday and was able to try all kinds of wigs on a YoSD similar in size to Adori. The 6 - 6.5 - and 7''s (Luts, Leeke, Monique Gold, For My Doll) all fit her much better than the black bob wig that I bought from Oobiedoll in the 6-7" size. I think it must be super generous and stretchy compared to other 6-7s. But I love it on my SD doll and will keep it for her. And I think I'll reorder another one in 5-6 for Adori because I couldn't find another short black one for her at fabric and friends.

      Shirelae, pinning it is a great idea but this one is so big that I'd would leave a noticeable pucker on this wig. The back of the cap falls to my dolls shoulders! But I'm sure I can use the idea for other wigs. Thank you so much!
       
    20. Hello Adori Moms and Dads!
