I am going to be sooo impatient waiting for my new doll. Company/factory orders are always so hard for me, I hate waiting.

I'm currently waiting for 3 dolls. One is on her way, but the other 2 are taking their sweet time. It's hard! In the meantime I'm getting eyes and wigs ready.

Does anyone have any idea where I could find a size 10-11 wig in a style and color similar to this? She's not a BJD but I figure you guys would know wigs best! I'm not sure where to start looking or which companies make good wigs.

Maybe try Ruby Red Galleria?

Ruby Red Galleria would be one of the best options certainly for an 18inch doll. This is about the closest style and color ise that I saw. http://www.rubyredgalleria.com/ad0001c-straight-dark-auburn-bang-wig-for-18-girl-p-41.html?cPath=38_65#.V7Rxg1srLcs

Can-Can wigs has 9-10 and 11-12 wigs, not sure which would be a better fit. But this style and color are close http://cancan-jseries.com/collections/11-12-wigs/products/b12-rust

So upset. I sent my Pipos frog-alien and Big Dipper to my painter in the Czech Republic and the post office there basically held the box at ransom and only gave it up when she paid them 70 euros. I'm so upset. What is the point of insuring something if third world countries are going to resort to extortion? So annoyed.

Oh no!  >_<  Was it for custom fees?  That sounds awful.  Custom fees in the US can be steep too, but for whatever reason, we don't get charged customs for toys.

Thank you both, hannaliten and NoDivision! I found a few options that would work well for her. Now the hard part: deciding!

tuney, I am so sorry that that happened. :(



Oh wow, I like that basket a lot!

Ive been wanting a scaled laundry basket- but the ones on Shapeways are soooo expensive...

Have you seen the Our Generation laundry room playset?  (I know Target's website says that it costs $49.99, but I've seen it in-store for $24.99.)  It comes with a really cute wicker-style laundry basket.



I went back to Walmart to get the shopping cart that went with the little shopping basket.  These things are far too cute!  I love both My Life As and Our Generation for MSD-sized accessories.

I love that set!  I've never seen it for $24, but my Target always seems priced higher than anyone else-  still, I am suddenly motivated to run down to Target and check!!!!


I LOVE that little basket too- so cute

Don't know that I ever shared pictures of my Big Dipper, Cherish. They've gotten new eyes since I took these pictures... I'll have to snap another photo later.  :P I'd love to see if anyone else has Big Dippers.  ^.^

How on earth do you define The Czech Republic as being a third world nation?

I  love your big dipper, Hannah66665!
Also, I'd love to share my newest acquisition with all of you, Coco!  She was an impulse buy, but siamese kitties are kind of my weakness  :blush:  I wish my pictures did any justice to the wonderful paint job she came with  :heart:
