I am new to bjd and have just seen PpoPpo. She is wonderful. She now also goes on my ever lengthening list of "dolls that must be had" Not only that but there is an entire wardrobe of Blythe clothes at my house that she can try on.
She would love that bdwvr! Meanwhile, I enhanced Winsome's faceup, and her special Tinybear wig just arrived! She is in the process of being restrung, the only complaint I have about Bobobie's dolls. Stringing is lacking!
I agree with the stringing. I have tried to suede her but that doesnt help. Did you send your girl away to be strung?
I'm trying to redo Nuri...but I don't have enough elastic to retie the knots...so I have to get more...I'm going to try to put s hooks in her wrists so that I can bend them. *frustrated* I'm going to try and suede her as well so I hopefully won't need wire.
I restrung her via willing husband, he's pretty handy with dollies. I had put pipe cleaner in my Moona, so that is what we are trying in her. She's fairly stiff now but at least she's not falling over!
My girl is in a wheelchair so if the legs are loose it's okay but I don't like that her arms are always stuck up in the air...and her head is always cocked to the side...
No she's actually very easy to buy for, as she fits Blythe clothes (not shoes) and if you check out ebay and etsy there's tons of Blythe-sized stuff. You will also find her on ebay for sale by her creator Garden of Dolls, just put Ppoppo in the search and you should find her
It is so easy to buy clothes for her. Etsy is also a good source for Blythe stuff. And the shoes, oy.
Wow, you mean they still sell people size clothes? I thought there were only kid and doll sizes, heh heh.
I'm going out on Saturday and have just bought a lovely silk scarf to make my (old/ancient) outfit look nicer and I'm eyeing it up now for dolls clothes
Here is Winsome, faceup enhanced and "her" wig. From Tinybear of course. Also these are the silver and blue boots. The dress was made for a 1/6 th doll. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d31/Estellak/Winsomenewfaceupfull.jpg
Winsome is stunning, I love the colour combination of her hair, dress and boots - I sold my Ppoppo and wish I hadn't When I can afford to I'm going to buy another
OoO don't you just hate that! I hope you get another soon! They are such sweet things. Imajica, aren't those boots great! And so well priced!
I actually regret selling almost all the bjd's I have sold so that's teaching me a lesson, rather than sell one to buy another, I need to be more patient and save up for the next one... I sell other dolls without looking back but there is something about these bjds isn't there Although Ppoppo went to Lady Crow and she has lots of friends there so I think she went to the right home!! Where did the gorgeous boots come from??
They came from the ebay seller KingKong, there is a whole thread about these shoes. http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=217632 Here you go. I have had that same seller's remorse. It is especially bad when you end up selling to someone who turns out to be not so nice. Grrrr.
