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.

How do you keep your dolls?

Dec 27, 2006

    1. Some are in the glass cabinet and some are in their boxes for now. Hope to put them all together in the bigger glass cabinet when the new house is done. And I always have at least one on my computer desk too.
       
    2. Six has his own bed on the floor, right now. But he will have a whole shelf dedicated to him when I get back to school. XD
       
    3. Mine are in chairs on the floor or standing on shelves. I have 2 cats and they are fine with them. When I adopt a new resin kid, they may sniff and introduce themselves, but other than that they don't bother them at all. If you're going to have them standing invest in a good doll stand as cats tend to jump around and your doll may fall just from vibrations. I have some good stands and they have never fallen over even when my cat has jumped directly next to them.

    4. my girl has a little lined basket that i cover up with her blanket -- my cats never bother with her! her dresser and mirror she has right to the side, against the wall. if i get another doll, i'm not sure what i'll do! i hope to have more space, soon... limiting myself to MSD-sized folk for now. :)
       
    5. my dolls are currently staying in a drawer away from direct sunlight and dust.. I can not enjoy them anytime this way, but hopefully one day they will have their own pleasent place, still thinking about the best one..
       
    6. I've got a cat, I'm paranoid from reading other cat/doll stories that he might try to eat my doll when she finally arrives! I was thinking about getting a glass case for her but I haven't had any luck finding one big enough to fit a 65-70cm doll ><
      Currently I have a space on my desk in mind for her - once I get the sewing machine and costume material moved! I'll have to sunproof it unfortunately.
      I'm also thinking - I may have to rearrange my room again as I plan on getting at least one more doll next year and I don't want to run out of room! What do you guys do when you 'run out of room'? I might have space for a box or two on the floor if I clear some other boxes out of the way first xD
       
    7. My dolls own my desk, they are surrounding my laptop and whenever I use it, they all looks like staring at me haha! XD
      when I think that I will be gone too long (i.e. trip, conferences) I put them in their box with stacks of pillows and cushions
       
    8. Most of my dolls are in my room standing and sitting everywere but when my room gets a make-over(when I have the time to do that) I entend to use one or two shelfs for them.
      Two of my doll are sitting in the livingroom on a garden bench, because my mom thinks it's cute :D:D
       
    9. Mine sits on my vanity/dresser, because I can admire her there all the time. I almost feel like she's watching over my stuff that way ><
       
    10. Well I don't have my little boy yet :D but when he comes in, I'm not really sure! I will probably keep him sitting on my desk... or in his box, on my desk, where I feel he is safe ^.^ I have pets, but my door is constantly shut so he'll be ok up there. I think it depends on the mood I am in... I think mostly he'll be sitting on my desk so I can see his beautiful face :D
       
    11. My girls live in the glass display case in my room. They're so big (or the case is so small) that each takes up one whole level of the case!
       
    12. I actually have a bed for my two tinies but I'm not entirely sure about the black material I used for the sheets (it's been through the wash once so far, thinking another time or two will do the set good), so for now I just cart them out to the little dolly couch by my computer every morning, and then back into my room at bedtime where they have a spot on a table with soft pillows. My neighborhood is kinda not-great so I'd rather not leave them out in the living room at night. I refuse to pack them away in boxes, that's not what I bought them for, and the same will go for future dollies.
       
    13. Mine sleeps in his box with a mattress i made him and a blanket, although i have him sit in a bit saucer chair most of the time and put him away when I am out or when I am asleep so kitties don't bother him.

      So far the worst thing that the cats have done is sit in his lap. My one cat actually crawled into his lap while he was sitting in his saucer chair and looked up demanding to be pet. Both parties were very confused and I quickly removed her.

      I am looking at childrens chairs and found a small couch and a small saucer chair that would work wonderfully as a doll sized chair except they are covered in cartoon characters. Unfazed I am attempting to cover them with something more appropriate. For some reason I really like the way he looks sitting in his chair with a little book. Also I lack any skill with wood to make him a chair of his own.
       
    14. Mine all live on cupboards in my livingroom. They have there own couch.
      I would like to have them sit nearer to the ground, because sometimes it's a bit difficult to get them up there since I'm not the tallest person. Sadly I can't because of my pet rats. They would definitely chew on them XDD
       
    15. I keep my resin dolls on display on a shelf. But for my vinyl Dollfie Dreams, I always remove their clothes and put them away in their boxes because I am afraid of staining. I actually plan on making some white (non-staining material) robes so that I can still keep those dolls out too eventually.
       
    16. Mine have their own little comfy space in my closet. :)
       
    17. I have a "billy" from ikea , with the glass doors. So the ones that are not on display yet ( that'd be all of them right now) lie on their own shelf each. I have only 70cm dolls.
      It does loot a tiny bit creepy:lol: for somebody not used to bjd's, perhaps, I'll change the doors to the non-transparent one day :lol:!
       
    18. Mine recently got their very own room! My kids are now sharing the "big boy" bedroom, so I converted the nursery into my office...which means it's full of dolls :) The Puki got two shelves of the built-in book shelf as her house, and the LTF has a cube-shelf room box. The others just kinda hang out on shelves/the desk waiting for me to finish their environments.
       
    19. Mine kinda live on a shelf that doesn't get sunlight, surrounded by calaveras and stuff. When I move, however, I plan on making a doll-size bedroom for them.
       
    20. Mine is currently just sitting on my computer desk. I'm hoping to make her a little room or spot with some furniture and props in the near future, as soon as my husband makes me that crafting desk he keep promising, and telling me not to start any projects until it's done...
