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.

Hosting meets?

May 9, 2014

    1. Hi guys! I want to know what it's like to host a meet? Have any of you hosted a meet before? Has it been in a public or private area?
      Let me know what your experiences of hosting meets are like and how did you go about doing it? Eg. via DoA or elsewhere. :)
       
    2. I held one for a few local doll friends and one member id never met before from doa at my house, I prepared munchies and little goodie bags to take away, I also have a few backdrops, furniture and props so we were all happy snapping and chatting (I think I made a thread about it). Its nice to organize meets as long as it runs smoothly :)
       
    3. One of the funnest meets I went to was hosted at someone's house, it was a pot luck and there was lots of yummy things to try, there was comfy places to sit, our dolls were all set up all over the place and we were able to talk and do a little craft (pumpkin bag/pillow) so it was fun. There was music playing quietly in the background, and all in all it was just great. I can't wait for the big summer meet up I'm going to, it's themed for sweets so I need to come up with some cute stuff.
       
    4. I haven't hosted one but I've been thinking about it since myself and my local group can't get on the same page at the same time to meetup. I'm not sure if it's ok to post about my meet in that group, or if it would be rude.
