How do you carry your dolls?

Jan 26, 2006

    1. I have found that SD dolls are a lot easier to carry than MSDs. I just hold her kinda like a baby because she is pretty much to scale of a newborn,just lighter. I have a DOD carrying case so, that works as well!

      But a baby carrier sounds cute! ^_^
       
    2. the yoga mat sounbds perfect!!!! i need to get one of those..
       
    3. ^O^ I would use a baby carrier but Kaiden's like 16...

      So yeah ^^'
       
    4. I'm thinking just buy a coffin case with a pouch in the lid to store cash in,so when buying something,you can freak people out because theres a doll in there
       
    5. I'm glad I found this thread, because I was just about to post a thread like this up! Thanks!
       
    6. No prob,Kati.
       
    7. Right now I just carry my SD boy on my arm in the "sitting" position. But I'm making a trip to the LA Volks store next month and am exteremely tempted to buy a violin case. I've always wanted one, but they're a tad pricey, soI've always been curious whether or not I would just be better off converting a regualr violin case instead. *shrugs* honestly though, its all a matter of personal preference. What youre comfortable carrying your doll around in.
       
    8. ^o^ I've tried carrying my MNF on my shoulder,it's alot lighter and mom thinks he looks like a little prince or my muse
       
    9. Well I have one of those baby carries they are so cute:aheartbea Darien is a 60cm and I guess he loves it too but he doesn't say anything, he is so shy:lol: , see the pics and you see:) I really recommend these things, this is a easy way to carry them and they just love it, dolls always want to be with us so close to feel our love:D

    10. I usually carry Gavin in a messenger bag but it's really not that sturdy, I am tempted to go build one myself but we'll see what happens with that lol
       
    11. Psicomaniatica,your Darien is so precious! What model is he?
      I like the idea,except Kaiden would kill me if I used a baby carrier for him.
       
    12. He is a Dream of Doll DOT Homme Ducan!!!!!!!!!
       
    13. Well, depends on whether or not you want your doll to be "out" and seen or not....

      for general transportation - depending on how many I take, I have various bag/totes/carriers/coverted bowling ball ball that I use...

      for having my doll(s) out - well, kinda of by accident, we discovered that an Umbrella stroller works really, really well! Can put up to 4 60-70cm dolls (yes, two dolls have to sit on the other two dolls laps). AND they can be 'strapped' in!

      Also, if you have an additional "tote" for the back of the umbrella stroller, another doll or two can stand up in the tote.

      Then, of course, smaller dolls can sit on laps or shoulders...

      Worked out really, really well at the Animae Festival we went to! Lots of people stopped to look at what exactly was in the stroller!! LOL!!


      I've also been toying with the idea of designing something on the order of the Build-a-Bear Workshop front/back carrier. It is based on a baby carrier. I'm not sure if the BABW one can be adapted for our dolls or what size doll it would work best with.

      Hmmmm... still debating it! WIll post if I come up with a better idea!
       
    14. ^.^ I have a 43cm MNF Shiwoo,and it's fun to carry him on my shoulder ^.^
       
    15. well when I'm at home and I have to carry my Hound I usually hold onto him around the waist with one hand.
       
    16. Most of the time I use my messenger bag...
      Though I only have one doll and when my other one comes, I don't think I can fit two SD dolls in there.
       
    17. Oh... everyone else has made so much to get a bag fit for carrying dolls... I just.. errr... walked to my hometown's nicest and most <3 fleamarket one day and walked out with this.. REALLY pretty suede bag. Brown, kind of.. dark brown flower pattern in it. It's the perfect size to tuck a sd sized doll sitting there 83 The only thing it needs, is some stuffing. I'm pretty sure some safetypins and pillows will do the trick <3 :)
       
    18. mm I'm hoping my msd fits in the coffin bag my boyfriends mom got me.
      But tote bags seem good.. or a big purse..
       
    19. I'm thinking of using a messenger bag for Kaiden... When it's not appropriate to carry him *snorts* like when my dad's with us,he refuses to let Kaiden come if he's there,which is completely stupid!
