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.

Yummy Sweets Dolls - Discussion

Nov 21, 2023

    1. Hi everyone! I'm so excited to say that Lotus has been recently approved as an on-topic doll! So we can chat about her now on here :)

      Lotus is the first doll that I sculpted in 3D (3rd doll I've sculpted thus far) and recently ran a preorder for. I am super excited to see what everyone does with their girls when she starts shipping out to everyone in January-February of 2024!

      If you want to see my process of how I sculpted her, you can find photos and videos in my highlights on Instagram: YummySweetsDolls <3

      Here is some info on Lotus and some pics as well! Happy discussion ^___^

      Some pics of Lotus

    2. Congratulations! It's always good to welcome another doll-maker into the forums!

      Lotus has a very sweet face, and I really like the wide range of resin colors you're offering (that Umber color looks gorgeous).

      I hope that this thread will soon be full of people sharing their Lotuses! :)

    3. I have been following you on Insta, congrats on the approval on DOA! I did not join your first pre-order but I am excited to see the dolls from those who did.

    4. Did anyone here snag a prototype?? I was tempted but (1) they sold out very quickly and (2) my actual doll should be here in a few short months, I can/should be patient!
       
    5. Looks like the Lotus dolls with faceup are delayed... I'll be expecting mine sometime in March/April now.
       
    6. Looks like the blank dolls have all made it to the US! Will still be another couple months for the dolls with faceups.
       
    7. Lotus looks gorgeous and her range of movement amazes me! I can't wait to hold her in my hands and give her the princess treatment she deserves :blush I ordered a Seafoam Green girl and plan to turn her into an alien with a love for everything cute and spacey 2000s! It was hard not to order one in every colour...

      Also, I'm excited to say that my Lotus has been shipped! I hope she'll arrive soon and safely.

    10. So, of course, the package got delivered while I was at work, then the UPS pick-up place was closed for the weekend, and then I had to wait for the next weekend (this one) to take pictures in daylight. But finally, here she is! I took about one billion snapshots with my phone and tried to pick just a few so I don't spam the thread.

      Here she is in all her glory!

      The outfit that was included plus some super cute extras (how I love those butterfly hair clips)

      And the magnets in her head allow for some fun shenanigans

      I'll paint her once the weather allows it. For now, I'll try to make her a wig and some clothes.
      She's so much fun to pose, her resin looks and feels soft, and I just love the colour! I'm so happy I had the chance to get my own Lotus :)

    11. My Lotus doll arrived on Friday! I ordered beige, neutral face, + faceup. Her faceup is just to die for and she is rock steady on her feet. She also crosses her legs really well, so that's how I have her posed currently. I currently have her in a 6-7" wig with wigcap, but I think a 5-6" wig would be a better fit (though, it's hard to find 5-6 wigs that look good! If anyone has tips, I'm all ears!).

      I only have a few little quibbles - one of her eyelashes fell off as I was putting her eyes in (and of course, when I reattached it I got some glue on the actual lashes, so I'll need to figure out how to pick the junk off without ripping the lash off), and the magnet on the right side of her head seems to be positioned a bit off - her headpiece on that side spins round and round, whereas the other is rock solid and doesn't budge. I'm not entirely sure how to fix it, but I'm pretty sure it can be fixed... hopefully. For now I've just left them off.

      All this said, I would very much recommend her to anyone thinking about getting one during the next preorder. There's just something about her that feels really special.

    12. I've been watching the development of Iris on Instagram, and her and Orchid's bodies make me so incredibly excited! I love how Lotus looks, but Iris and Orchid hit a niche in body types that aren't often seen. Iris in particular I found while scrolling the bjd tag and I was instantly like "what is this beautiful doll and who made them", haha
       
    13. That is a wonderful assortment natural skin tones and fantasy colors to choose from; the accessories like the head piece and wings are fun.
