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.

TinyBear 10inch Moona/Mina and Bracken discussion part 1

Jun 25, 2008

    1. Ahhh! No no Carrie! *drags eyeballs away* They are too cute! I am saving for my first Lati's. I am desperately staying away from evilbay and etsy and anything else that sells! Must not shop! Must not shop! Ooo but they are so lovely. I haven't sewn in a long time but I still have my sewing machine. Can't wait to get into all that and buy some patterns. I already know I'm going to raid my local store that sells fabric for patchwork. Gorgeous fabrics.

      I'd love to see Mina and Coco side by side. I've been looking at Emaline and your very dark choc Coco :aheartbea.

      luv MOP...
       
    2. Oh I love Emaline ...I do have favorites ..I know I shouldnt but I do
      It was Emaline that made me want to make her larger

      I have some amazing shoes ..and those sugarmag clothes I think she would just look amazing
       
    3. haha *whispers* My Moona is my favourite. She wows me everytime I go get her out of the dollhouse.

      Sugarmag is appropriately named I think. We gets addicted to the sugar! hehe
       
    4. I can hear Umoja swimming across the Pond as we speak

      "Nitakuja!" ("I will come!")

      Oddly...she seems to have a British accent ;)
       
    5. I'm glad I'm not the only one who went nuts! There is just so much there that it's like a smorgasboard of temptation. I agree with you that I can always go back and get something later if I think that Moona must have it so for now I just got some essentials and can build on them later.
       
    6. Yeah...and they're based in New York so shipping is FAST!
       
    7. :) I LOOOOVE that part! No really high shipping fees either! Moona may well turn out to be my dollie with the most extensive wardrobe.
       
    8. I got her :) So scrawny...her wig doesn't seem to fit right and I still need to style it the way I want and wait for her green eyes. She came with turquoise ones but Nuri stole them :)
       
    9. OoO! Just checked out that etsy link, with the patterns and fabric, really cute, had to order the patterns, and some adorable fabric.
       
    10. you must show us your finished results Stella Maris
       
    11. Does anyone else's Moona seem to have one leg shorter LOL? She was wired with pipecleaners which help her legs remain straight but her hips are very difficult to adjust for me...is this something that will resolve as I "break her in"?

      I love her...EEEEEP!
       
    12. I have only ever been asked once on a white girl ..her owner said she thought one leg was longer than the other ..I was a bit panicked as she was one of the first ones sent out LOL
      and I thought I had a box full of odd dolls LOL
      but I checked the ones I had and I couldnt see anything and no-one else ever said anything ..so presumed it was a one-off ?

      ..Im wondering if its how the leg sits in the joints after they have been wired or when the tension is tightened ?
      or could be a combination of the tension and the wire ?
      the pipecleaners go right up into the upper torso it may be one is catching on the inside , the upper torso has a small hole for 2 wires to go in so it can push against each other and the resin and makeing the leg longer than the other , this size any difference in the wires/pipecleaners and tension will make a difference ..must make a mental note when Im , tightening the tension and wireing
      I have noticed the knees on them when they have thicker pipecleaners inside arnt as flush ...I think personally think its that
      I think once they are bent a few time and she is " broken in" she will be fine
      Im trying hot glue suedeing next ..and Im gonna have to be very carefull with this as to get it even on everything otherwise it can make the legs or arms longer or shorter etc
      I will let you know I get on
      I know its great on larger doll ..Im not convinced with tinys
       
    13. Thanks, Reine! They couldn't be any cuter together!
       
    14. I have to agree with you...I got her as a friend for Nuri...she has all those Pukis but no friends her size!

      Thanks :chocoberry
       
    15. Oh, ReineDeLaSeine14! Umoja is gorgeous! I love what you've done with her ear! I can't to see more pics! :)
       
    16. Wow, ReineDeLaSeine14 she's beauuuuuuuutiful! I love that resin, so nummy and chocolatey!

      luv MOP...
