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. Learning to restring. Seems to be a good thing to get over the anxiety of....
       
    2. I have entered the realm of "dilemma". Do I add an extra "extra expensive" doll to my list now that I got my loan >< Said doll's 'extra' costs are due to the rediculous .... well everything BUT the doll ><. The doll is fantastic too (his nose is to die for!) But I literally could wait to get him on the regular monthly 'custom period'. But do I pass up the chance on the outfit and weapons that alone tally up to over 1,000! >< :...( His sale period ends on May6!!! *pace, worry, fret* I am not good with these decisions!!!
       
    3. I do not envy you right now Tiku.... if I had the funds I'd be sitting here worrying just like you. lol. As it is, I'm just trying to figure out whether I can swing buying a bike right now or if I need to wait until July x.x But if I wait it might be sold out :/
       
    4. I plan on just enjoying the dolls that I have and doing my best to increase their wardrobes. College has definitely limited my dolly funds and time.
       
    5. Wow. I am bad at plans. New plan
      stop buying dolls!!
       
    6. Another change in plans XD
      - find hooves for my three remaining ponies
      - find bodies for two of said ponies
      - sell all extra dolls
      - get at least 3 more bookshelves
      - sell all unnecessary doll furniture
      - get new dollhouse
      - get body for pukipuki face
      - get souldoll Paratiisi
      - actually finalize and do the mods on honeybee!

      I think that should be the final plan (please T.T) mainly because I need to stick to a collection I actually have space for XD

      2) Get some props and accessories
      3) Practice some faceups
      4) Get a nice camera and learn how to pose my dolls

      2. be patient until july, when my doll chateau MSDs should be arriving.
      3. re-learn how to use a sewing machine.

    10. 05/07 UPDATE!!! - Dexter arrived yesterday ^^ Got demon hunter set on spare body (looks great). Dexter is amazing in his black suit! My helper even had a blast with the opening today and loved taking doll pics! I was able to get (in splits) ALL of Leonard's stuff (total double set ^^) PLUS a bonus single set of just the weapons!

      Okay, my actual plans for the year!

      1. Learn to restring! Awkward attempt and Jessica's head is a tad tight now but the 'learning' has begun
      2. Buy proper tools to restring. <- have Jessica's new string. will get tools at doll show in fall.^^
      3. Pay off my Chiron centaur and bring him home! DONE!
      4. Send his and the human head I also snagged this year 'back' to Soul Doll to get matched face ups (Amending: Keeping Centaur face up... I like it ^^.) Not happening... too much other stuff needs money first
      5. Buy camera accessories (namely a tripod and light reflectors). This i can still do since it's local stuff ^^.
      6. BRING HOME IH DEXTER! DONE!! ^^ arrived home May 6th
      7. Find safe place for Soul Doll Chiron centaur to live O_o. (may require a case?) On hold untill I can restring him so he stands free.
      8. Get IH nYID... - ordered Bliss ("Carved Heritage".) full set DONE - on layaway with 'some' of the hunter outfits that were in stock.
      9. Get Enyu's 'house' out of storage and set it up (got a ton of stuff to put in already) -> Down and half cleaned
      10. Try and get Iple's newest outfits before they disappear! (the "Hunter Collection") also the stuff with the new theme set - important items aquired! only second choice line items left from Hunter Collection!
      11. Try out a couple of doll stands for BIG dolls (stop being paranoid about wasting the money ><) Angel Soul and Loong Soul look like good candidates Only if I am lucky?
      12. Get RE-reading E.B.'s books so I can plot out character descriptions and decided costume details (not just 'the black dress' LOL). - Done primary books! now I can work on specific 'design details for when I can get a commission done! ^^
      13. Find out where to commission Enyu's clothes! - Done - I have plenty to work with with Ken doll stuff. I may in future obtain spare to 'cut down'. Commission work not required ^^

      Ongoing projects.
      1. Sort and tidy up doll wardrobe... ongoing process ><. But needing new 'game plan' of where to put stuff. - new decorative cases bought!
      2. Get sewing corner 'usable'. - tested machine decided it needs recondition before any 'real' sewing projects (will still try 'test' sewing on scraps?) - Done for now. It's minor-ly usable at least
      3a. Try out sundress 'test' pattern. - Skipping for the time being
      3b. See if 'in home lessons' are possible? Not this year lol

      PIPE-DREAMS! - for when I win a lotto or???
      *depending on what shows up this new theme set could force the core doll set to come home faster and earlier than planned - definitely
      1. 2nd & 3rd full nYID girls (the Langley girls)
      2. SID woman (Grace?)
      3. 2nd EID man OR a SID maybe? unfortunately looking more than possible ><
