How would you feel if someone gave you BJD clothes as a gift?

I'd be happy if my parents or friends got my doll clothes, regardless of if it fir or not (though if they found out it didn't fit I'm sure they'd return it to get the right size), I'd keep the clothes, who know maybe I'd buy a doll that would fit them one day.

 

I think it would be sweet of something to try to get me something towards my hobby. Shows that they pay attention and also accept your hobby (for you even if they don't like it). However, because of all the different dollie sizes I'd just rather get money or a gift card.

 

No matter what, I'd be pretty grateful

 

I've had friends do this. Well, they didn't order the clothes online but one day they brought me a couple of shirts they'd picked up somewhere, along with a couple of necklaces and gave them to my brood. I also got a few crotched hats, skirts and dresses out of the deal. I wasn't complaining!

 

Even if they got the wrong size/stlye I would be so happy and I would never give it away. For me my family or friends buying me clothes means that they're starting to accept my hobby.

 

It's such a huge investment of money... I'd feel really awkward if someone just got me one out of the blue. It's all about customization too... and picking out the right one for you. Also I'd be so embarrassed if my parents tried to get one and got some really ... black market sketchy cheap one or a Barbie or something lol! I'd appreciate it... but it's something that needs to be picked out personally.

My mom got me a lolita dress for Christmas one year... It was too big, it was this sweet-loli pink... and it was a take-off... like not even the right style. It was really embarrassing. Make sure you get what the person wants. <

 

I'd shed a little tear of happiness.
no one ever think of my dolls.
well, my parents saw a mini bagpack at the $1 shop that seemed perfect size for my MNF and bought it ^^ that was the only time

 

I wouldn't want doll clothes as a gift because I'd worry that I wouldn't like what was selected. I also don't get rid of gifts, so they would just sit around unused and the money went towards them would be wasted. Plus I'm not good at faking enthusiam over something I don't like. However, if I liked the clothes, it would be a great gift! Actually, my mom has heard the name "Dollheart" enough that she might could find something I want, but I'd still rather pick it out myself.

 

Luckily my parents have always been really good about just asking me (generally) what I want for my hobby things. Usually they have me make a wishlist and then that way they can still pick but they're getting something that they know I want.

If someone did buy me doll clothes without asking, I'd still be really grateful even if it didn't fit or wasn't the style I had in mind. It's really the thought that counts. (:

 

I would appreciate the gesture and would not want to hurt the person that got them for me feelings. My dad will buy furniture and stuff from garage sales for my dolls. I would be able to find some use for them and if not maybe sell them. When it comes to the clothes and shoes though my family would not even know where to buy them and would just prefer to give me money so they dont have to be bothered with it and I can buy it myself.

 

I'd be more than happy if someone gave me bjd clothes as a gift. It'd be like the best present ever. Usually people just give me money though. Heck, most of my family members don't even know what a bjd is.

 

I wouldn't mind BJD clothes as a gift.

I sew, so worst comes to worse, I sew it for a better fit or dye it whatever color I want.

 

+1 even if the clothes are in the wrong size/color/style, only the fact of giving me a BJD "thing" as gift would be a proof of respect and acceptation of my dolls and I would be very happy for that

 

I would appreciate the thought... But if it wont fit my doll, i would sell it and the money will go to the doll clothes i want for my doll.

 

I think I would be so excited if someone bought my doll an outfit.

 

Happy as a clam!

 

I'd be overjoyed if they were the right size and style. My Mom knows what I like and she knows what sizes to buy (because she made me right everything down). But my friends have no clue... One of my friends assumed I had a Yo sized doll because of her experience with barbies and bratz. Yeah, I now have a lovely little yo outfit but no dolly to wear it

 

It would make me feel so loved. :3

 

Oddly enough my other half asked me about this the other day. We both have public etsy favourite lists that we both use to randomly buy each other stuff and I have a few doll's things bookmarked on there.

So his question was, even though he wanted to buy something for me, would I like it if he bought doll stuff I'd already flagged as things I wanted, so to speak.

To be perfectly honest I told him I don't mind but it's not my preference, not because I don't appreciate the idea, I love the fact that he wants to get involved and cares enough to ask - but at the end of the day it's my hobby and I accept responsibility for that, and unless it's something I specifically ask for it's probably safer not to.

That being said, even if he did order something and it turned out completely wrong I'd still be incredibly grateful and think it was amazing of him that he not only puts up with my craziness, but that he's even prepared to get involved and encourage it. I think some people can forget sometimes that not everyone has the support in our friends or family that some of us do and I think it's honestly something to be cherished.

Just be happy they cared enough to try

 

Having two friends who make my dollies clothing or jewelry i say its sweet. They know what works and what i like. Sometimes its not about the stuff but the thought behind it. I mean I made my friend a blanket and pillow by hand now i cannot ew worth beans but it meant alot that i tried. That is what counts
