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.

What are you Doll Plans for 2014?

Nov 24, 2013

    1. Finish my dollhouse. That's actually the only plan I have for 2014. It's still a lot of work, but maybe I'm able to apply the last bit of paint before 2015 starts.
       
    2. I know I probably won't do half of these things, but what the hell! In order of priority....

      1. Get the last of the dolls that I want! There is one I definitely will get while I'm on the fence about 2 others. We'll see.
      2. More props. Once I finish buying dolls I can concentrate on really completing them.
      3. Shoes! The boys need them, badly. And some of the girls too.
      4. Work on getting a nice big shelf to make an SD diorama. I have all the furniture, and eventually I'll have all the props I need.
      5. Draw and photograph them more.
       
    3. Only two things on my to-do list right now: Buy IH Victor, and replace my broken Nikon so that I can stop trying to take pictures with assorted devices that are NOT cameras...
       
    4. My big one is to bring Pip Human back home, I sold her in 2013 because I needed the funds, huge mistake!! Now I will probably have to spend more than I made on her to get her back, but I don't care if I have to sell most of my other dolls, I discovered I NEED this girl!! Anyway, another goal is to downsize my collection, so that will help with that goal too.

      I would also like to try and find more doll/creative time for things like sewing for my dolls, and photographing them. The last year and a half have been way to chaotic, with too much work, I have to find a way to cut back on work hours. (sort of doll related.
       
    5. This is always good fun!

      My plans:
      1) Improve my faceups
      2) Take lots of photos
      3) Make photostories
      4) Get better at sewing
      5) Complete all my dolls (meaning, each of them has one set of clothes and had a ton of pictures taken!)

      Long term:
      6) Save money for an Iplehouse clothing order
      7) Save money for a Feeple65 Roke :)

      Ongoing projects:
      -improving faceups :D
      - making a pastel-pink wig for my girl
       
    6. I want to kind of 'refine' my dolls, work on them one by one, with a getting them a new face-up, make them new elaborate outfit, buy them a new wig, eyes, shoes, etc..not changing their style(well, some, but not all of them)but just making them all something fancy. It's probably going to take quite some time, but that's okay, it's a fun project! :D And, of course more dolls, don't we always want more dolls? XD I don't have anything set in stone about that though(apart from a Cerisedolls Lyse I'm getting atm <3), I'll see what kind of wonderful things the doll artists will throw at us next year! :D
       
    7. To stop buying dolls lol.
      Next year will be tight and right now there aren't any dolls I really want anyway. But I'll be going to Ldoll in October and I will probably put some money aside for that every month. Twigling will have her Ingenuese out, which is gorgeous and I'm sure Cerisedolls will have something new and pretty out again.
      Basically I'm saving money until October and then we'll see what happens lol.

      Other than that, I really want to take more pics of my dolls and some still need to be finished. I have two incoming dolls which will need everything but names.
      I an hoping to find a new living space next year, so if this new place allows me room for my dolls, I want them to have a nice place to sit, finally.
       
    8. I'd like to to do the following this year:

      Learn more about doing faceups & actually finish some that I started.
      Decide which of my yo-sd dolls need to find new homes, since I'm really liking the smaller-size dolls.
      Find a way to better organize all my doll stuff.
      Stop buying dolls & start being a better guardian of my resin family.
       
    9. There is so much to do but barely any funds but this is what I would like to accomplish:

      1. Save up for an Angel Egg doll Milk.
      2. Finish making the diorama that is in progress for months now.
      3. Buy rements and props for it.
      4. Make wigs for my dolls.
      5. Sew clothes for my dolls.
      6. Get a camera to take pictures of my dolls.
      7. Clean my room so I can display my dolls.
      8. Finally getting an SD doll that I've had but only to sell it and regret it! Hopefully Fairyland rereleases feeple 60s so I can get a Miyu!
       
    10. Get plenty of pictures of my dolls as well as creating lots more historical and cosplay inspired outfits...
       
    11. Well these are my plans so far:

      1. Buy my Soom Rosette Fir in January (FINALLY!)
      2. Finish my first doll's clothes [she is still pantless currently even though I've had her since June x.x]
      3. Make her guns... yeah this is important to her character and they are still just unformed polymer clay at the moment
      4. Redo her faceup... she still has the first ever faceup I did and I've gotten better so I am gonna redo it.... some day
      5. Buy some stuff... [i.e. an outfit, some shoes, and maybe some heads from migidoll and some wigs....XD]
      6. Buy a camera so I can take pictures.... [still eying that Nikon DSLR... but buying dolls instead of it x.x lol]
      7. MAYBE buy my Resinsoul minis that I wanted to get over a year ago.... XD
      8. Start saving for a minifee.... or two... or three... or seven XD
      9. Have fun learning how to make my own BJD
      10. Maybe finally paint my Doll Leaves Cat tiny...
       
    12. Ahhh dolly plans... you change so fast.... u.u I do consider this to be a final list of my plans, however!

      • Get my Crobidoll Tei home
      • Rebuy my Kid Delf Bory (so that he and my Summery '13 may have a body to share too)
      • Gather the funds to pay for my Dollfie Dream Miku sometime late next year
      • Buy the Dollheart outfits I want for my Ran and Miku (or place them in a long layaway towards/at the end of next year)

      • Set up a small "dolly space"/diorama for photographs
      • Draw my dolls/doll characters more
      • Make some jewelry for everyone
      • Put together some more shoes

      And last but not least!


      • Make more online buddies in the hobby! :)
       
    13. My big plan in 2014. is to find a sweet girl for my boy. :)
      And other minor plan...

      - Handmade to make outfit and wigs for my doll.
      - Learn wig create even better.
       
    14. UPDATE!!! - ordered my Iple grail boy! So I consider him a 2014 planned doll since all the tech junk will be done on the new year despite the order going in today ;P

      Okay, my actual plans for the new year!

      1. Learn to restring!
      2. Buy proper tools to restring. <- ordered Jessica's new string.
      3. Pay off my Chiron centaur and bring him home! (aiming for Feb/March of 14) <-- one more payment left!
      4. Send his and the human head I also snagged this year 'back' to Soul Doll to get matched face ups (I love their human Chiron face). Not sure how fast this will be since I don't want to have to put away a headless centaur as soon as I get him -_-
      5. Buy camera accessories (namely a tripod and light reflectors).
      6. BRING HOME IH DEXTER! ... ORDERED! (13/12/30)
      7. Find safe place for Soul Doll Chiron centaur to live O_o. (may require a case?)
      8. Get IH nYID... (waffling on which head though, a second Emilia or Erica)
      9. Get Enyu's 'house' out of storage and set it up (got a ton of stuff to put in already)
      10. Commission 'simple' regency dress and 'red knit socks!'
      11. If possible do a layaway for a Loong Soul centaur (if they come available here!)

      Ongoing projects.
      1. Sort and tidy up doll wardrobe... ongoing process ><. But needing new 'game plan' of where to put stuff.
      2. Get sewing corner 'usable'. - tested machine decided it needs recondition before any 'real' sewing projects (will still try 'test' sewing on scraps?)
      3. Try out sundress 'test' pattern.
      3. See if 'in home lessons' are possible? (really hard to find ones that are not too advanced).

      PIPE-DREAMS! - for when I win a lotto or???
      1. 2nd & 3rd full nYID girls (the Langley girls)
      2. SID womnan (prolly Grace?)
      3. 2nd EID man OR a SID maybe?
       
    15. 1-I would like to find one LUTS delf girl in WS this year....I'm not sure which sculpt yet, I suppose it will depend on what shows up for sale.
      2-I would like to find a Luts type 2 mature girl body also, since I have one extra head that will need a body.
      3-Learn how to use my sewing machine!
