*glows with happiness* I ordered my first Blythe today. She's nude, and needs her scalp glued back on, but I am so so so excited! She was a previous custom, and I have to find clothes for her. I just-squee!- yay!!!  Here's the eBay auction I won. http://www.ebay.com/itm/201379984135?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Congratulations! You got her for a great price too. Make sure to post lots of pictures when you get her!

Oh, one question: what size clothes fit Blythes? Like, Barbie, or MH, or Pullip-size?  I'm trying to prepare for my girl to get here.

Congrats CrystalMist . Great deal. I know some Pullip dresses/tops may fit, but the Blythe legs are thicker so the pants won't fit. MH clothes would be too small. But seriously just pop by etsy and you will find more Blythe clothes than you can ever buy, and in all sorts of price ranges . Blythes have the cutest outfits and hats there is in my opinion, so I don't bother giving them clothes from other dolls, unless I feel like using a stock dress from one of my Pullips .

They can wear vintage skipper and sindy too

Licca clothes fit blythe too, don't they?

[Vertefae]

Yes, licca fits too

[CrystalMist]

Thanks! I'll look out for those.

I got my girl today! Fortunately, she came with clothes, so I can hold off on buying new clothes. She's so much bigger than I thought~ I remember the same thing with my Pullip! I'm also considering getting her a new wig- her hair photographs well, but in person it's crazy unruly. But it has charm!

She doesn't have a name yet, any suggestions?

Spam! (okay, not really.)

She looks sad, but I promise she's not!

Congrats, she is very cute . I think her hair is nice .

She has a weft right? You should be able to wash and condition it with people conditioner. Don't brush it but use a wide tooth comb to comb the conditioner through. Form the curls with your fingers how you want them to look, then let the conditioner set over night. The next day rinse it out with cold water. Reset any curls that need it by forming with your fingers. Let her hair dry. You can also hang her upside down to dry if you want a bit of bounce with the curl. Be careful to not let the water get into her eye holes.

Wow! I didn't know I could do that. Yes, she has a weft, and due to it being summer, and me not having anything else to do, I think that I'll try it. I have it goes okay!

She's lovely!  I love those red curls...let us know how the spa treatment turns out!

[Vertefae]

And my Mandy is lost! Do I just have the worst luck or what?!

[Buzzingbumblebee]

Oh no . I hope she turns up soon.

I won Cherry Sunset Beach *cough* . I wasn't sure about her but figured the outfit is very cute, I don't have any swimwear for my dolls. So I thought it was better to be safe than sorry as I'm sure the prices for her will be bonkers second hand.
