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.

Uncanny Dreams 2012: Into the Labyrinth

Mar 24, 2012

    1. [​IMG]

      I am pleased to announce that Uncanny Dreams will be returning this year! The show will feature a vendor room, gallery space of invited artist displays, and displays for taking photos of your dolls. Other activities will be announced as plans are finalized – plus our elves love to give teasers and won’t let us tell everything right away!

      This year’s theme will be “Into the Labyrinth”. We encourage attendees to be creative in interpreting the theme via their dolls and their own costuming! Even so, we do not require that attendees adhere to the theme. You do not need to bring or even own a doll in order to attend – this is an event open to all who would like to come!

      Uncanny Dreams will be held on August 19, 2012, from 12pm to 5pm at The VERA Project located at the Seattle Center* in Seattle, Washington. There will be a gallery in which to view the invited artist displays as well as interactive displays to take photos of your own dolls in, and a full room devoted to vendors. We also have a room for attendees to just hang out, as well as an exterior courtyard with a small artificial pond for attendees to take photos in and enjoy the outdoors. The greater campus offers plenty of photo opportunities including the International Fountain, sculptures, and lawns.

      Unlike last year, there will be a small admission price for this year’s event. All proceeds will go to cover this cost of the event for 2012 and to the budget for the 2013 show.

      Over the coming months we will be announcing more exciting information regarding Uncanny Dreams including ticket prices, vendors, and contests. Keep an eye here for forthcoming information and announcements! The discussion thread can be found here: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/s...-Dreams-2012-Discussion&p=8901714#post8901714 Any questions and inquiries can also be addressed directly to Uncanny Dreams at [email protected].

      *The Seattle Center campus was the location of the 1962 World’s Fair and is still home to the iconic Space Needle and Seattle Science Center. Nearby hotels offer affordable accommodations, the Seattle Monorail and Metro Bus system provide easy transportation to downtown shopping, and the Seattle Center campus provides family friendly entertainment and plenty of photo opportunities. There are plenty of neighborhood restaurants in the Queen Anne neighborhood, as well as a food court at the history Seattle Center House. Also included on the campus are the Seattle Children’s Museum, Experience Music Project, and IMAX Theater to name a few of the attractions. More information on the Seattle Center can be found at the following: http://www.seattlecenter.com/
