Hello! Today I opened up my newest doll and took photos to share. I’ve always wanted to do a box opening thread and now is my chance . I entered for five of the Volks memorial one offs in October and got a winning email one night which was so shocking and still is . I’ve never won a Volks doll lottery so to win a one off was such a surprise. I usually have a hard time picking doll names but I instantly felt like she is Morgana before her arrival thus this is her name. Haru helped out a bit in the beginning. Shipping box! Another shipping box in the outer box! Haru helping…sort of LOL Getting there!! Her box!!! All unwrapped and ready for opening. Wig, outfit, one off certificate!! It’s so cool to see my name on the certificate First look at the cutie! Getting her dressed before removing the face protector! I couldn’t decide what she should wear so I went for Nono’s outfit. Face!!!! What a cute, round head Wig time! This color is so cute on her!! While I love the ponytail, I wanted her to wear the beret that goes with the outfit so I opted for my favorite wig. I swear it looks good on everyone! And that is the end!!! I’m so afraid to mess up her face up or create those shiny spots from presumably taking wigs on and off (any advice for how to prevent this??) so she’s up on the shelf with the other dolls looking so cute. I’m looking forward to the day when I can take her to a meet!
Wow! I just love her faceup. Congrats on winning her. The round of memorial one-offs were all very stunning - I bet it's such an amazing feeling to win one!! She is so lovely in the wig you chose for her! As far as preserving the faceup, I do notice Volks doesn't heavily seal their dolls well. Best advice I can give is do not touch her face with bare hands if you can avoid it - use cotton gloves.
Awe! She's adorable! Congratulations on the win and being able to get her! Both wigs look really cute!
Thank you, @Dybbuk ! I went ahead and bought some white cotton gloves . Thank you, @RabbidBunnies !! I can’t wait to try on more wigs on her!
