How Do You Spoil Your Doll(s)?

Currently spoiling the girl I'm waiting on by buying everything for her and having it here ready for arrival!

 

Clothing that costs as much as my own. And I like nice things, so that ain't cheap either. Most of their outfits have cost 250+, not including shoes, wigs, accessories, etc. And I like to kiss the top of their little heads when I'm in the room and tell them I love them Like a normal person.

 

Those are wonderful items! Your doll is lucky ^^

I've bought my dolls bags, a suitcase, a wooden chair for my 1/4, a Plush chair for my 1/12, plushies, extra clothes... my one friend even bought my one doll their very own little hello kitty collectible doll ^^

 

Definitely by buying lots of different outfits and wigs. I like to dress them up and change their looks entirely. My future goal is making a diorama for my 1/4 dolls. I'd love a really nice couch and armchair that fits them.

 

I like to find new clothes for them and style their hair. I also love designing outfits for them and trying to give each of them a specific wardrobe. I’d love to design some tattoos for a few of them but I haven’t quite had the confidence to experiment with that yet. I also make sure to give them hugs and sometimes I talk to them

 

Making and buying clothes and accessories that are specifically for them, to fit their character. Also buying them really nice shoes! Oh, and hats. If the doll doesn't have a million hats do I even love it?

In the past I made rooms for them, with their own furniture and props, but I don't have enough space in my flat so I don't do that anymore.

 

I just bought another display cabinet so they won’t be so crowded, lol! I also spoil them with a lot of clothing, wigs, and shoes. I think I need to focus on toys and furniture next.

 

I spoil them by buying clothes and better eyes as well as props. I recently got an archery bow for my elven girl and new eyes for my fox girl.

Though, I really spoiled a YoSD that I'm actually now selling (he's not cutting it anymore and I need to downsize). I bought him so many toys and previously set up a bedroom, complete with dinosaur themed bedspread. I'd like to reshell him to do that again but that's a future project.

 

I don't think I really spoil my dolls. I just give them a fictional world where their lives are far better than my own and surround them with a large happy family. I do buy them a lot of outfits and barely any clothes for myself. I hate clothes shopping for myself, but love clothes shopping for my dolls. Maybe i'm trying to spoil my dolls in clothes because I've tried dressing my dogs and they hate it. I put on an outfit for my dogs for like 1 minute after all the effort I put in getting them to wear it, but they don't like it so I take it off them right away.

I do buy lots of shoes for my female dolls. My male dolls need work on the shoes, but it's harder to find shoes for my male dolls. I like to get my dolls nails done and give them fancy face ups. I guess I get my dolls all dolled up to look appealing to the eyes and look as perfect as they can be.

 

I shop on Etsy. I love getting little packages from all around the world. I love it almost as much as the dolls themselves.

 

They’ve got a larger wardrobe than me. And I’m still always shopping for them.

 

I am spoiling my first doll with clothes and shoes, but her size is so atypical (Zaoll, 52cm), that it is really difficult to find something for her. That is my salvation.

Parker is my #1 and I have spoiled her with lots of clothes, shoes, trips before Covid, and she is my most photographed. My biggest regret is when I went to Disney World I didn't take her. It was first time for Granddaughter and I wanted to focus on her experience. We went as a family in 2018. Little did we know what was ahead. I always thought I would go again and then take her. Sadly I don't think it will ever happen. I do hope eventually we travel like we used to and then take her to all the places I want to see one more time, but I kind of doubt it. So day trips will have to do.

 

As much as I love the idea of sewing and crocheting the clothes myself, sometimes it’s nice just to do a bit of shopping. I just got my girl some winter clothes and boots, so I soon will be able to take her out in the colder weather and take some cute photos.
I’ll post photos when they arrive. I would love to see some photos of the way you guys spoil your dolls too!

 

I usually make clothes for them - I love to sew for the crew - although one of my girls is also getting a guitar soon.

 

I spend more money on doll clothes than on my own clothes

 

Companions, props that work for specific individuals, making them clothes.... You know; the usual. I don't think anything YoSD sized and up will be getting a wholeass diorama, but I do like to do the occasional diorama setup for my Ob11 and proper 1/6th scale dolls. Although one of my flaws is overestimating how much I can complete in short time spans so I wind up getting/making stuff for dioramas but not actually setting the seasonal ones up very much. ^^;

 

I recently got a new member and he's the biggest one so i have to spoil him a lot with new clothes, both pre order and custom cutting cuz there are not many shop that sells clothes in his size out there (accept it's company its self and its kinda costly + not fit with his character)

besides clothes and accessories, sometimes i couldn't help myself and buy something that not really 'need to' have, like furniture.. cuz I don't really have much room for the set up and everything.. maybe I've shopping addiction idk lol but after I got the things I thought I dont really 'need to' but 'want to', I'd say I do need them now xD

 

I'd say buying shoes is my version of spoiling them? They don't have loads but I don't think they also need to have as many as they have There's also at least one pair that cost a little too much for doll shoes imo But it's fine, I make their wigs and clothes and convince myself it evens out. I also got Asa a miniature guitar which is definitely a "want" and absolutely not a "need"... but honestly it is all just to spoil myself, isn't it?
