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.

    1. Yes, I will try it... just need to do some research for tutorials on precisely where to put the glue - and hope I don't end up with glue everywhere!:sweat

    2. top tip
      use hemostats ..old nail scissors or tweezers , something metal ..sqweeze a tiny blob of hot glue ..spread it with the metal tool ...like butter on bread ..nice and thin

      NEVER touch the glue when its wet ..sounds like common sense but you would be suprised how easy it is to use a finger by instinct ...OUCH ..thats why have the metal tool is so useful
      dont worry if you make a mistake ..let the glue dry ..and it will peel off
      it drys fast ..so I dont even take the doll apart I just pull it apart then blow on it too cool the glue

      when I get back I will do a tutorial ..I have one in photos of restringing ..so I will do one of this too

    3. :aheartbeaThanks Carrie, I'll give it a try... or maybe wait, for your tutorial. lol! I'm glad I don't have to take her apart, although I guess I should learn to restring a doll at some point. Enjoy your trip!

    4. Dear Carrie, Lady Fern has had a horrible accident! :( Somehow two of her green fingers have broken off and gone missing. Is there any possibility of getting any extra parts for her? I might be able to make her some from the air-dry porcelain, but green is a tough one to match.
      Thanks so much!

    5. Poor Lady Fern! Sounds as if she needs a whole new hand.

    6. Oh No :( Carrie is away at the moment, I saw on her blog... maybe you could try asking Dennis in the meantime?
       
      #546 kayjay, Jun 25, 2009
    7. Yes, she will doubtless need one. She looks as though she's giving every one the "rude hand" gesture. I knew Carrie was away on hols at the moment, I just wanted to ask while I was thinking of it.
       
      #547 sistercuervo, Jun 25, 2009
    8. Awww no :( Poor Lady Fern. I'm sure you'll be able to get another had for her.

    10. Hi Carrie,

      Any news about large, dark-tan Mina? <fingers and toes crossed>
       
      #550 ICanStopAnyTimeIWant, Jul 3, 2009
    11. I will ask
      I know it most likely taking a little longer now ..this time of year its so hot an humid it takes longer ..because of the bubbles in the resin ..especially problamatic with darker resin
      but Im expecting them somtime this month :) so I will ask

      Im especially exited about the dark tan one too :)
       
      #551 tinybear, Jul 3, 2009
    12. Thanks, Carrie! Ah, yes, I had forgotten about humidity and resin. :)

    15. They're all so beautiful!
       
      #555 Aeilia, Jul 11, 2009
    16. LOVE LOVE *slips them all into pocket and runs away* Mwhahahahahahaha!
       
      #556 Motherofpearlz, Jul 11, 2009
    17. The newer face up style brings out the beauty of the sculpts more I think.

      Larger Bracken is such a photogenic guy isn't he, handsome and knows it!!

      The eyes you put into Mina are beautiful but I don't think they're the right colour for her resin tone, they seem to suck out the warmth from that gorgeous caramel shade, they're too cold for her.
      That blue would look amazing on a normal or white resin Mina though!!
      I love her serene expression, she has such potential!!

    18. I just got some pics of my lge Moona Simbelmynë back from the *Meee* spa. Doesn't she look absolutely amazing? Tiffany did an outstanding job.

    19. She's absolutely gorgeous, MOP!:D That blushing really brings her face alive. That's amazing, it doesn't even look like the same face. *Meee* certainly captures the soul of a doll.
