What Type of Doll Owner Are You?

I'm a mix of The Doll Photographer, The Doll Storyteller, but most importantly The Doll Mommy.

 

I'm the artist/posing type of owner. I never keep my dolls in boxes, they are always in my little room diorama. I'm constantly changing their poses, revamping the room, getting more items for them. I also really enjoy customizing them and making clothes and items for them.

 

Weirdly, a combination of:
-The Doll Collector "Mufufu, more, MORE! The more the merrier!"
and
--The Doll Favoritist "I only like very specific xxx-type dolls!"
Mostly I chose "bigger dolls" because the damn tinies multiply like..adorable..rabbits. So there is some sanity in my collecting, but not much.
I'd say Doll Photographer, though I just have a little snapshot camera. I had no idea when I started how much I would enjoy photographing them. Though I am not good at it, it's one of my favorite things to do. I do facups and sew for them, but again without a lot of skill, but I enjoy it. The dolls go in their boxes except one or two favorites, and I try to rotate them.

I do have two that are characters from a comic of mine, but the rest go from "no story" to "barely a story". I do like fantasy dolls. A lot I don't take them out much, just the backyard, and not for long.

--The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ I do take them occasionally to meets, and it's hard to shut me up if you look interested in the dolls.

 

Well, I'm a strange mix too xp
First : The Doll Storyteller (because, as a writer, I use dolls to portray the characters I created for my novels) That's so good to see them "alive"

Then, a bit of the doll artist, collector and mummy (I'm a caring person only with dolls XD dramatic !)

 

Well... all I have currently is a wigless, eyeless head, but I already know what type of owner I'll be. I'll likely have a nice space in my room where I'll keep all my dolls and doll stuff, but I know that they wont be cabinet babies...let's just say I'll be cleaning them a lot.

Even the single head I have, I can't stop holding, looking over, and imagining what he'll look like when he's whole. I'll never be able to just sit my dolls up and never touch them; I will be touching them, holding them, posing them, playing with their hair, dressing them, and even taking them apart...just for the sake of doing it.

 

I'm the storyteller/role play fanatic. I wouldn't want to keep my dolls if I couldn't play with them.


EDIT: I'm the mommy too. I have no living responsibilities, so I take out any nurturing instincts on the dolls.

 

All of this^

They usually follow me around the house, and occasionally come shopping with me. Right now, for example, I'm sleeping in the family room so my Nonna can have my bed while she's visiting, and the dolls are slowly migrating downstairs so I can have them around me when I sleep XD They have never, ever gone back in their boxes, except for one doll who is no longer with me. I always like to have them where I can see them. I figure, if I can't play with them and admire them, they're not worth it. So they get a lot of attention ^^

Then I have my artsy side. I love doing body blushing on my Kid Delfs, and a couple of my guys are also subject to face-up practice. Photography is usually spontaneous for me.. if I see good lighting outside I might drag one or two out and snap some shots. Sewing is a ton of fun; except for one set of undergarments, I haven't bought new clothes for any of them... ever! XD The only store-bought clothes they have came with the pre-loved ones.

 

Hm, I guess I'm a mix between doll photographer and worrywart. I'm constantly like "No air, no light, no water, no heat. Don't touch her; she'll break! OHMAHGAWDWHATHAPPENDNOW?! EEEEEEK!!!!1111!!!". I'm getting over it though as I'm getting to know my girl and how tough she really is.

 

I am all of them, except I suppose from doll Admirer because I have seven of my own. Though a big part of the hobby for me is admiring other people's dolls, so in a way I still am!

I'm not a "treat my doll with kid gloves" kind of person. Truth be told that kind of person annoys me. I'm reasonably careful with most of my stuff and I would never fling my doll halfway across the room or anything, but for me, my dolls are meant to be handled and stroked and touched and played with. Of course, I would always wait for permission from someone else before touching their dolls, but as far as my own resins go, I'm happy for people to play with them!

 

I'm vary much the same way

 

C-c-c-combo breaker!!

I am the artist, the collector, the storyteller, and the planner!!

 

When it comes to ball-jointed dolls I classify as a doll admirer--I have a billion dolls, but no BJD's. With regards to my other dolls I am a photographer/collector/storyteller. When I finally get my first BJD it'll be the same way.

 

--The Doll Artist "To enhance the beauty already there creates life of its own."

--The Doll Collector "Mufufu, more, MORE! The more the merrier!"

--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..."

--The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ "

--The Doll Planner "Every cent, doll, outfit, decision must be COORDINATED MASTERFULLY."

I'm these. I'd like to be the Dolly Photographer at some point when I get a nice camera. I'm also:

-- The Estrogen Enthusiast "Owns nothing but female dolls for one reason or another." (my reason being that I haven't been able to snag the boys of my dreams just yet!)

 

I guess I am a bit of everything too.
- Love to photograph dolls, but plan more scenes in my head than I really get around to taking pics of
- I don't collect a certain type of doll exclusively, unless you call "what I like" an exclusive type
- definitely not everything needs to coordinate; it may clash too
- Doll Mommy - nah! not in the BJD's yet, still trying to find my way

Poo! Questions are harder than I thought.

 

Somewhere between doll photographer and doll butterfly!

 

combo of Doll photographer, doll crafter (must make ALL the THINGS! for the Dollehs!)
and butterfly...

I love going to meets and hanging out with people with similar interests.
(My local Sci fi fandom is very active, and the dolly virus is spreading! whoot... there's 3 or 4 of us now that I know of...bwahahahaha!)

 

A bit of everything and nothing. ^^
I enjoy taking photos of them, I really do. But I don't go into into depth that much and just like doing it, when everything's set. I'm no professional and I don't want to be. I can't make good photosmost of the time. So I'm not *the* doll photographer.
I also enjoy just looking at my dolls without planning photos and the like.
I like making my dolls beautiful. Sewing for them, doing face-ups and body paint/blushing all give me the chance to make them more beautiful. As much as I can, because I'm no pro at that, either. I can try to get better but I'm not that good of an artist to spend all my time on that. I just do it to make the dolls more like I want them.
I'm no collector. I get the dolls I want and that's about it. That has nothing to do with collecting in my opinion. However I own ten dolls now and for some people that's already collecting. ^^;
I give my dolls a life and a character, something that helps me get closer to them and to enjoy them more. And I really like that. When I have all planned out and the doll has a name, I'm happy. I don't go around changing that often, though. It can happen that i change the doll's profile a bit but it just happened once that I did a major change. So I'm not constantly telling new stories.
I own dolls from five different companies. So much for favourites. ^^
Going out with my dolls is not really my cup of tea. Although I know some people in my area who own dolls, I don't really like going out with my dolls to public places or someone's home. I'm afraid of the dolls breaking or being stolen and since I can't really attend a doll meetup without a doll, I don't go there.
I'm not seeing my dolls as child substitute. I like them really much and playing with them is fun but that's taking the whole thing way too far.
I look where I get stuff for my dolls and even the dolls themselves but I'm not that obsessed with planning.

 

Another great thread. I am first off: "Mufufu, more, MORE! The more the merrier!"

My hope/goal is to use them for artistic purposes. My work is a free lance artist so that would mean they will be "career dolls" eventually. Right now I'm having to work and stay focused on my other art stuff [commissioned portraits, etc. to PAY for the dolls] -- I haven't been able yet to make the full transition in my home-cottage-industry-set-up to work with them as I plan to.

I try to keep them protected as collectibles that must remain as perfect as possible. That is hard for me because the cabinet collector is the one kind that does not at all match my personality. As respect and care for the little sentient being that my imagination sees them as -- I also try to take good care of them physically. I've had to actually work at comforting myself that they don't mind being in their boxes because I have to store some of them away. ~My collection is extra large~

It just makes me happy to stare at them. It has no sexual meaning to me, but I love to look at them without clothes. I have only one that is realistically blushed and I do have her dressed. I guess I see her sexuality. But for the others, I enjoy looking at their shapes and gently exploring how they move and pose. I still spend delighted hours pouring over the photography of other peoples dolls.

I hope my photography abilities will develop way beyond where they are now.
They are marvelous subjects. A natural extension of my main love and expertise for painting people. This is a perfect wording from the question choices:

The Doll Artist "To enhance the beauty already there creates life of its own."

I would have them posed all over my house but I had a roommate who I wanted to feel at home and relaxed here. For her sake I kept that to a minimum. For now most of them are seated together on a very large built-in bookshelf in my bedroom. Rows of them...back to the more the merrier. I blocked light from reaching them by covering the window so that is my nod of respect to the cabinet keepers. And they are only on high shelves that my pudgy kitty can't reach. Some are behind glass in another room, for their protection.

I am the exact opposite of the planners and Doll Favoritist [your wording -- "I only like very specific xxx-type dolls!] I like learning from the Favoritist. And they are a mystery to me. I've even branched out to Blythe, Momoko, Jenny, fashion dolls, antique dolls...I'm reminded of how I liked all the cliques back in high school. All kinds of people AND dolls fascinate me.

I've been a serious hermit in recent times, finding my social outlets mostly on line. But lately I've started to open up and get together with a few humans and their dolls. Looks like my dormant butterfly tendencies may return through our shared love for the dolls.

Even though I have a near ton of my own dolls, I still spend hours "lurking" -- I fave and REfave my favorites on Flickr. Have to re-fave to bring certain absolute favorites back to the top of my favorite pages.

AND<< I do like to write. Kind of obvious when ever I answer any thread. Eventually their stories will emerge. I have a lot of stories to tell.

 

--The Doll Collector "Mufufu, more, MORE! The more the merrier!"
Guilty! My wishlist grows longer all the time.

--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..."
I tend to write stories about my dolls. Generally, they all have a past and personality.

--The Doll Mommy "I love them to death and that's all there is to it X3 !"
I guess I want to be this, too. I'm more attached to some than I am others but so far I haven't kept a single doll for more than a few months. It's always love when they arrive and then I gradually notice flaws. >>

I'm also a bit of a lurker even though I have dolls. I'm not at all confident in my photo taking abilities so I don't really post my dolls on the forum. I'll work up to it!

 

I am totally the Doll Butterfly and the Doll Storyteller!
I love enhancing all of my dolls character profiles and story lines as I bond with them more! I also LOVE hearing other people stories and characters they've created! its just so much fun!

 

I'm the obsessor but I don't take many photos or "play" with them. I just like sitting with them. And looking at them.

 

I'd be the storyteller. Everyone has a full bio and intricate personalities and there are multiple stories going on and interacting with each other in my dolls, including the ones I don't own yet but intend to someday.

 

Oh, I thought I should also mention I do make stories for all my dolls (or try to) so I guess I'm also an obsessive doting type XD

 

I'd say I'm a combo. Mostly the first two and a mix of the last two. I collect, I love dolls period and love the meet-ups cuz I get to oggle other peoples dolls.
Than there's the story-telling artist side. That I've tacked on because it's fun! But I never intended to be that sort of doll collector!


--The Doll Collector "Mufufu, more, MORE! The more the merrier!"

--The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ "

--The Doll Artist "To enhance the beauty already there creates life of its own."
--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..."

--The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ "

 

I'm definitely a doll mummy. I love my resin babies, and I play with them often. I'm quite a hands on owner.

 

I am collector, artist, photographer, and also a bit of a planner and admirer, though I do have dolls..

I'm still very paranoid about possibly damaging my dolls, because I am very much aware of how clumsy I can be, and also because, even after a few years in this hobby, I haven't gotten over the price of these dolls. Therefore most of the time I keep them in their boxes and dressed only in light clothes and wigs, or not at all. I do have a small cabinet with glass doors that gets indirect light, and the dolls I'm working on are displayed there.

 

Oooh I like this thread!
I'm pretty sure I'm mostly an Artist and Storyteller but also a bit of a Butterfly and Planner.
It is my goal to become more of a Photographer among all that. XD

It would be interesting to hear what people thought I was... as I don't know if certain aspects really are all that apparent about me. 8x

 

I'm equal parts the "planner" and the "admirer" and am fairly certain my admirer status comes from my insane need to meticulously plan every little detail until I'm satisfied. I could very easily lapse into the "collector" status, but since I honestly don't want to be drowning in dolls my obsessive planning comes into play so my obsessive buying doesn't.

 

Even though I only have 4 and I never see myself having a horde, I feel that I'm a "doll collector." I have a little bit of many aspects of doll owners; I do like to take my dolls places, I love photographing them, making photo stories, both putting them on display and carrying them with me - but ultimately I just like having them. xD They look pretty and they keep me feeling inspired. They're a constant reminder that I need to write more because they each represent a character from a story I want to write. I love the thrill of obtaining a limited doll and customizing it to be exactly what I want. I enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that one of my limited dolls would be worth more after I bought it, but I also enjoy the fact that when I buy a basic doll, it's mine for life because there's really no point in selling it. I have a practical side to my doll collecting - having a budget, trying to make good investments - but ultimately obtaining dolls is fun for me and I can see myself accumulating them over the many years that I'd like to be involved in the hobby. ^^

 

Like others, I'm a bit of a mix...

0. I just fall in love with bjds, basically. But I guess that's too general!

1. --The Doll Collector "Mufufu, more, MORE! The more the merrier!"
Mostly, I just love the dolls... and it's hard to keep that love stuck on a few! I love all kinds of things about the dolls. They sometimes express characters, but that's not the main thing at all. The dolls come first and I'll maybe give them a character, usually. I love different outfits and wigs and everything about the dolls... so I have to have more than one to play with.

2. --The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ "
I do enjoy the social aspects, online and at meetups and doll cons. I love doing things with the dolls--and preferably with others (since it's just more fun). I'm more introverted than extroverted, but I still like to get out and about--and doing it with dolls is all the better.

3. --The Doll Artist "To enhance the beauty already there creates life of its own."
I see dolls and sometimes I'll just love them as they are in the company photos, but I also love to think of all the other possibilities. I'm not that into taking photos, but it is cool to get the dolls to look certain ways--to dress them up and try to take photos that do them justice!

I've got dolls in double-digits, all sizes, all resin colors, all types, various companies... Most all are limiteds, but I don't take special care of them. They are for me to enjoy, and I'll do what I want with them (although I take basic care of them and I do treasure them above most all my possessions).

 

I think I'm somewhere between the Artist and the Planner, although I'm shooting for photographer, eventually.

I have some new categories to offer to the masses- My roommate would like to consider herself a "Doll Honey-Badger", because she likes BJDs, but doesn't care to justify her collection to others. Or, to put it another way, "honey badger doesn't give a sh!t." (BTW, that link is not work safe, and probably not something kids should hear.)

I also come across The Doll Sampler- a person whose tastes change often, or they're not sure what they want, so they buy, and subsequently, SELL those things very frequently. There's a thread somewhere completely dedicated to this 'revolving door' type collector.

 

I'm sorry, I just LOL'd my head off. Because a) that is hysterically funny and b) it's SO TRUE OMG.

I probably qualify most as the Butterfly. I looooooove socializing with doll people; I'm all over the bloody place at doll meets, I just like interacting. Vigorously. I would really like to move into more of the Photographer area. I don't have a very fancy camera -- it's serviceable and really good for what it is, but what it is is a compact point-and-shoot rather than a DSLR or a superzoom -- but I know there's a lot you can do with a point-and-shoot and I'm happily learning. I'm not a Sampler at all; my collection has been totally static for four years save the one I just got, and he was in the works for a solid two years before I got him. I'm no kind of Artist; I pretty much toss everything to my customizer, who IS, and she creates wonderful things out of my dolls. (Seriously. She has carte blanche to do whatever she wants, since she knows all the characters like the back of her hand and has vision beyond anything I could ever concoct.) I don't need All The Dolls -- I've always said my max would be ten, and I don't see that changing. So Butterfly it is.

 

--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..." and a doll mommy.

 

--The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ "

--The Doll Mommy "I love them to death and that's all there is to it X3 !"

--The Other "My doll is like his own little person, he's not who I wanted him to be, but I'll accept him because he's awesome."

 

I'm the:

--The Doll Photographer "Stunning and still, could anyone ask for a finer subject?"

--The Doll Artist "To enhance the beauty already there creates life of its own."

and I would also throw in:

the uber-careful and cabinet-trophy type of doll owner

Taking pictures is the main reason why I'm in this hobby, I also enjoy working on them and creating their styles and personalities and last but not least, I'm EXTREMELY careful with them. I even use gloves and make sure to watch my hands before touching them...and when I'm not taking pictures, they just sit on their place.

 

I suppose I'm a Collector, Storyteller, and Planner. I'd love to dabble more into the creative aspects of the hobby someday. ^^

 

I'm definitely the type to treat them like dolls. What can I say? I like having them around and at my fingertips when a pose strikes me.

 

I'm definitely the photographer/collector. I already have 5 resin dolls, 1 OT doll and a floating head, 1 on the way and more on my wishlist. When I get out my dolls to "play" with them, I'm always taking photos of one kind or another, be they regular shots or photostories.

 

--The Doll Planner "Every cent, doll, outfit, decision must be COORDINATED MASTERFULLY."

Id say Im most this, I love planning dolls, sculpts, wig, eyes and outfit etc. I also love giving them certain color schemes.

However, Im a bit like the artist and photographer too. Like the artist Id like to do my own face-ups and I already sew a lot for my doll(and incomming doll) and like the photographer I take a lot of pictures of my doll. Im not particulary into taking photographs and such but I love taking pics of my doll. In fact, since I got a digital camera this christmas Ive been taking well over 2000 pictures, 98% of those were photos of my doll |D

 

Hoarder of Tinies. Doll photographer. I ADORE chubby cheeks on smaller dolls. And everyone has to be FRILLY.

My doll sits on my bed, covered with a blanket in the daytime and when I'm not handling her. I'm careful enough, but not a crazy paranoid doll mother that'll keep her resin kids in individual steel cases to protect them from everything. XD

 

I am, for the most part, The Doll Storyteller, my dolls are and will always be characters from my book. It's proving to be easier to describe them, get to know them, when I have a doll to look at, play with, make clothes for. They have a complete biography, long before I have the doll itself.
I'm also a bit of The Photographer, because I love taking photos, and the dolls really are perfect subjects
And, as in everything, I'm always a Planner. I do not ever, in any aspect of my life, do anything without planning it out perfectly first. That's just my nature, I'm a perfectionist and a bit of a control freak, so... well, there we are

 

I'm going to go with other- The Obsessive Doll Noob. I'm still trying to find my niche in doll collecting. I like taking pictures, but I'm not good at it and I'm not all that obsessed with the photography as much as the story and posing. I think I'm probably becoming a Doll Mommy, because I spend a lot of time doting and making clothes and just holding or looking at my girl.

 

^ Well, that's the closest I think. xD I'm definitely a lover, above all else. I love them and love them and treat them like real people. They all have a story and I love learning about each one. I'm a bit of a hermit and like to be alone with just my resin companions and my cat. I always have one near me and am always cuddling them or playing with posing. Sometimes I'll just reach over and hold their hand...that sort of thing.

I also consider myself a financial acrobat. I have managed to pull off doll purchases with little to no money just by planning and calculating my money down to the penny!! I live at home and earn minimum wage so financial planning is key to everything I do.

Lastly, I'm an extremely impulsive buyer. But only when it comes to resin! I was so good at saving before I got into this hobby. Now my savings hasn't grown hardly at all..haha I'm lured in by dolls with history. For example, if they have damage, or yellowing, or have been boxed up for a long time...I just feel bad for them and want to take them home and give them the love they so deserve! ..ok sounding crazy. haha But it's true. :P

That's what kind of doll owner I am. A little crazy, a little impulsive...but totally in love.

 

--The Doll Artist "To enhance the beauty already there creates life of its own."

Omg this is me to the 10th power. I always strive to get the character in my head down perfectly. Sometimes it is really hard and usually takes several years.

--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..."

The dolls are a reflection of my characters in my novels which is very long epic and involved. I believe only one of my dolls is purely just that- a doll not based on anyone. Just a picky fashionista. XD

--The Doll Butterfly "I love sharing and talking and meeting about dolls! ^^ "

Yes 100% my first ever doll meet was the fuel that lit the fire for me for BJD. Also meets are a awesome place to make friends. See many dolls you don't have and just have a awesome time.

--The Doll Planner "Every cent, doll, outfit, decision must be COORDINATED MASTERFULLY."

I'm normally an impulse buyer but with BJD I am horribly picky. I choose dolls very carefully now. As a newbie years ago I bought a few dolls that I ended up really not liking. Now I know what I want and I stick with it. Also this hobby taught me at lot about saving.

Wow this turned into a really loooonnnggg post. XD

 

well, I'd say I'm somewhere between the butterlfy and the photographer. ^^

 

Single doll owner, and I treat my doll like a pet - so I just take it everywhere. I try to keep it clean and safe, but I'm pretty fine with handing it over to friends or something. It amuses me to see other people dealing with a doll, albeit a very small and less-scary one. I'd love to be able to go out and meet more dolly people though, and try my hand at photography and faceups and sewing. The only thing that was weird for me was that I don't really have a character for my doll, but I'm an avid writer and reader. I don't have any interest in turning my characters into dolls, although that might also be because I'm an actor too, and I can portray them myself.

 

i'm a single doll owner, a doll storyteller, and doll artist. i treat my doll as a part of myself, since he is based upon the explorer's part of me.

i display him because to me, he is too beautiful to be kept hidden away. i handle him nearly every day, cuddle him and make sure he receives attention. i am also a bit of a doll planner because i will over-analyse everything before i buy it for him. it must be perfect! every outfit he owns symbolises a different part of his character.

i am an artist which means that my doll is also important in my artmaking and practice. he is my inspiration! i use him as a subject in many of my artworks.

 

I must be a planner/photographer.
For me the two are, regrettably, inseparable. All of the stuff I buy is coordinated and interchangeable, while I only ever seem to take Anya out of her case when I feel I have a photoshoot up my sleeve...
So. 1 more planner/photographer over here. >,<

 

I'm certainly a Butterfly in terms of enjoying meetups and occasionally bringing my girls out with me and chatting people up about them. This will lead into Storyteller. Some of my dolls are original characters, some based off of games or other fiction, but I adore them all as their Mommy. Somehow, I ended up with more in my custody than I've planned for, and there's still one I'm eyeing, which I guess also makes me a Collector.

Most of all though, I'm a Tailor. Their wardrobes are overflowing, and they are very well dressed.

 

The Doll Artist
...I was initially drawn to these dolls because of their potential for creativity, and that has never changed. I do everything and anything with them, from modding to faceups to display settings to costume design and much more.

The Doll Storyteller
...I tell my own story through the stories of my dolls. It's a way to express my experiences, ideas and beliefs in a very visual way. They are always on display in my home, in special eclectic settings that read like visual poetry.

The Creature Keeper
...All my dolls inhabit a world that is like an urban fairytale. They are human-esque, but mostly born of fantasy...like a ghost, a flower, a manga or gaming character, the Mad Hatter, a fairy, or Monster High students. It's like having a crew of imaginary friends that are always there for you and fun to hang out with!

The Financial Acrobat
...I've had the patience to build my collection slowly over years, by planning very carefully and budgeting every single cent to bring my visions to reality.

 

The Doll Planner&The Doll Storyteller!

 

I am many!
I am the photographer, taking dolls outside
I am the artist, making pictures and creations
I am the collector, need that one, that one...
I am the woman... that cant let my dolls just sit there. I need to make them thing, show them out for the people by my photoartwork...
And I am the storyteller, writing on a book

 

No cabnet. No stories. No collector.

I let my doll sit where ever they want. As long as it's a clean and they can't get injured.
I'm a horrible photographer, so my dolls have no become fond of cameras (YET). Need a better camera.

 

--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..."

Yep. Storyteller/Artist/Photographer:
"Here are my pictures of my character Doll, which I modded and painted to look like him, and here is his costume and why it looks like it does, given social status and background, and yes I sewed it myself, and here are his weapons and some food for him and eventually I'll get his horse, and here's his lady friend and her own backstory and her weapons and personal belongings and ooh they need some more props and...."
Yeah. I'm a bit nuts this way.

 

i mostly a doll mommy, my boys are like my kids.
yet i am also an artist, beacause i love modding my dolls and makeing them more
life like in a sense.

 

I mostly enjoy my hobby making photostories: all my dolls are odd in their way and I like to put all these individuals togheter and see what happens. They have some sort of angst in their bg, but I don't like to picture it in my stories, I'm more on the sarcastic/comic side.
I keep boxes but they are full of clothes because I don't like to put dolls back in them: they all sit on a shelf in my room ready to be picked everytime I feel like taking pictures. I like to sew for them, but I'm not an artist... if I find something good for them I buy it or delegate to others.
I'm a fan of variance, so I try to not buy too many dolls from the same company: even if I like classical bjds I prefer to own different face and body sculpts, when I buy again from the same company it's usually because I already own a doll in a different size or with another body!
I think I watched too many sci-fi films and anime so now I'm scared of clones... LOL XD

 

I'm not quite the cabinet-trophy type, since I do play with my dolls. But at the same time I do try to keep them nice.

 

I'm a "doll mommy" =) I always admire my dolls despite of my poor photography skills XD I take care of them and clean them when I have nothing to do XD

I'm also a "doll planner" too, every cent is important for me and I calculate my expenses first before deciding on buying a doll.

 

Hmms.... let's see, I don't have a doll yet but... I think I'd be a doll mommy and a doll storyteller. MAYBE the doll storyteller. If not then probably just a doll mommy. I think though I'd be super nervous or something when she first comes, whenever she comes. Hehe, being scared that I'm gonna drop her and other stuff. OH! And probably, maybe, the Doll Roleplayer.

 

--The Doll Storyteller "And this one's Maria Jane, a character of mine..."
