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.

Page 30 of 40
    1. I'm going to Doll AKON in Dallas TX. It's an anime con with a doll con within. I'm planning to go to Dairyland's Midwest Summer Meet-up, Maybe Austin's BJD Con (depending on when my knee surgery is). And of course, the St. Louis BJD Convention because Denis Bastien is the Guest of Honor.

    3. Previously my plan was to get no more dolls -- got 3 last year (and they need stuff!) but I just ordered a head, so it is time to try a face up. Also just put together a bedroom for my latest girl arrival. Oh, also want to sew some more clothes for them.

    7. I want to learn to do face ups, practicing on cheap dolls, and actually order my first resin bjd within the next few months. Sewing at least a few outfits sounds great too, a challenge I'll likely be doing at the AnthroAddicts forum.
       
      #587 beyondkawaii, May 31, 2014
    8. Buy or sew clothes for all our girls
      Figure out how to make all sit down girls. Maybe buy a new showcase.
      Find the right glue gun and glue for gluing
      Try making make
      And try to stop buying new girls from SOOM
       
      #588 Rias, May 31, 2014

    11. Quick summary and progress on my 2014 goals:

      1. Get my second grail doll: Iplehouse Andrew.-->DONE! (Ordered May 7th! :D)

      2. "Complete" the dolls I have.-->In Progress (Working on eyes and wigs for several dolls. Have a temp wig for the incoming doll and proper coloring on the temp wig for Beth! Now, Damian just needs his two tone wig, and Sala and Phoebe need hair... Then a handful need the proper eye coloring. Need to make a master list! 2a. Make a master list of who needs what to be "finished".)

      3. Figuring out a schedule for who I want and when.-->Not yet (Took me longer than usual to save for Brent, so all other dolly ideas are on hold until I can bolster my account. If I get a summer job this will take more priority.)

      4. Make my doll cubby.-->Let's pretend this one isn't here for now... -.- (No progress)

      5. Attire my crew. -->In Progress (Well, everyone /has/ clothes--that is a start yes? I even ordered pants and a tee for my new boy!)

      6. Take and post more pictures.-->Nope.... :( And that makes me sad. The last several months have been nuts, leaving little dolly time.

      7. Be more active in the communities and learn more about this hobby.-->Done! (I have been posting more and getting involved. I even volunteered to help at a Doll Meet that is upcoming--which scares me a little, but that's progress right!)

      8. Appreciate what I have and not pine as much for what I do not have.-->      ONGOING: This one is sorta varies on a day to day basis. I do feel that I really appreciate the resin I have more than I did before, even if I haven't had a lot of time. I'm proud of my collection, dream of the dolls I'd like to add someday, and feel lucky to have what I do. I've also been able to help a friend find a doll she's wanted, so all in all, I think that's decent growth.

      Seeing the update really helps me see where I'm at and get a better perspective on progress.I don't feel I am /quite/ where I wanted to be but I am getting there--and being able to see progress in some areas is better than none at all. It makes me feel a little better. It's been about halfway in after all, and I still have six months left! Plenty of time to catch up! :D

    13. 06/02 UPDATE!!! - OMG >< My main overall goal? Survive (financially) IH's Carved Heritage series! That being said my last outstanding order of related outfits has shipped and I have managed to get in on relevant splits for Leonard (full set x2) and for Pamela (weapons only) also. The doll and outfit just didn't do it for me (:sweatthank heavens for small mercies). I am more or less ready for the next series doll release ^^. This is still true and I can add Bliss is PIF and already started! I am also adding a month long photo challenge.

      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).On hold until Carved Heritage is done or I get past enough releases to have spare money ><
      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 - PIF as of 06/01 with 'some' of the hunter outfits that were in stock. Now I wait till she ships! ^^
      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 sets (The Lady Collection) - important items aquired! only second choice line items left from Hunter AND Ladies 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 ^^
      14. A Doll A Day photo challenge. (June) This for me is one I will have to work at to get all 30 as I am struggling with my blood pressure/migraines/stress right now and can loose a day or more when it gets dangerous -_-. I almost missed today (day 2 ><). I hope this will help with my camera skills?

      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 ><
      ^ These 3 may be more likely because of the IH current series. This may be the year I fill out my main doll set :sweat
       
      #593 Lady Tiku, Jun 3, 2014
    14. Finish the mods I'm doing on one doll, redo some of the mods on another, and body blush/possibly tattoo a third. The fourth doll is, for now, finished. For now. So I'll probably end up doing some work on her too, before the year is out :P

      I also need to finish the sofa which has been lying around half-done for ages now. It still needs cushions and fabric.
       
      #594 Proudgeek8, Jun 3, 2014
    15. 1) Make or find a nice couch/chair for my msd
      2) Buy an Iplehouse body + find the perfect head for the character I have in mind. Learn to mod it if I have too. Easy right? xD
      3) Lots more clothes for my doll! I'd like to start making them if I can
      4) Buy elf/mermaid/centaur fantasy dolls?
