In the dizzying array of choice and potential within the hobby it can be overwhelming sometimes. Let’s play with an exercise in restraint/focus by pretending for a few minutes that we have some insane and harsh limits in a few aspects of our doll hobby... Write your answers to all (or a few) of the categories below and remember...there can be only one! 1. You are evacuating, you can bring one doll, who comes with? 2. Everyone’s clothes have vanished! You can only have one set of clothes for one doll from now on, which doll is it? What will they be wearing? 3. Wishlist crash! You are only ever able to get one more full doll, OR one head for a body/body for a head, OR one set of option parts to complete an existing doll...what do you choose to get? 4. Suddenly your dolls go bald but for one...and a single wig remains for them only. Which doll, which wig? 5. Tech Glitch! Your camera can only register one doll, so it is the only doll you can ever photograph from now on...which doll is it? 6. Your family, SO, room-mates etc, hate your dolls. They will tolerate one, but you have to keep it in a special locked box that eats up half of your available creative or home work space, which doll do you keep? 7. Your dolls somehow lose their faceups completely. You will only keep the one you can paint the very best. Which one is it? 8. Suddenly, your dolls are all bald (again!)! You can keep the one you are able to MAKE the very best wig for in their own designated style, which doll is it? 9. You have to make a pair of shoes for one doll or they will never have any shoes at all, which doll would you choose? If they do not wear shoes, substitute a significant item that they do need to wear or have, but you must make it or they can’t EVER have it. 10. Your best friend, SO, family member, etc (preferably someone close to you who knows your affection for your dolls) chooses the doll they think you’d like best to keep if you could only keep one, which is it? (Ask them, you might be surprised at their answer!) Post photos of any you’d like. It’s not required...but...you guessed it...only one! Did any of the choices/answers surprise you?
1. My SD Bobobie Apollo girl Connie. She is my favorite and my oldest, and I would be devastated without her. 2. Again, Connie. I would keep her in her favorite hoddie and pants with her hat and glasses. Maybe her scarf and shoes. Her red wig and her gold carrying bag. 3. I would get Connie her female body so she can fully transition. 4. Connie keeps her red wig. 5. Well I guess I would say Luna. She is the most photogenic of my dolls. 6. Honest answer? i keep the dolls and cut out the loved one. They dont really love you if they give you ultimatums like that. 7. Ooh... Connie. 8. Lorelei because her head is shaped weird and she needs a custom wig 9. I would make Cadance some greek style sandals. 10. He knows me. My husband picked out Connie.
