What do you do with your dolls?

Baby Talk

I didn’t start out to be a collector but I have so many boo boo babies I don’t know what to do with them :thinking: I can only keep a couple in my studio without totally freaking people out. I remember my mom had dolls on the stair landing when I was growing up. I’d love to see your babies displayed :heart_eyes:

I have them in a bassinet until they sell. Other than that, nothing fancy. I don’t collect or keep any dolls at all so I don’t do anything nice to display them

I finally appropriated one of the kids toy organizers and put one baby per box in it.

Bad lighting right now, but you get the point, haha. The sleeping ones are lying on the shelves and the awake ones are on top. I’ve also got a twin A in a car seat and an Aloënka that has a doll stand.

I am looking at storage containers to place them in so they don’t get dusty while they wait for adoption.

I have a spare bed in my room at home that I keep my babies waiting to be sold and my keepers on, I always have the most recently made sitting in a boppy on the bed.

I have one on my bed, one in an antique bassinet, and a few in a port-a-crib. The ones I’m selling, I wrap in a blanket and put them in their shipping box with their clothes and accessories to keep everything together and protected.

My 3 right now are in a Moses basket in my living room on a small table. Keeps them away from the dogs who while they don’t play with any of THEIR toys I don’t trust them to not play with MINE. :joy: They’re each wrapped in their own blankets and usually with their faces covered just to prevent them from being sun damaged. I keep their things underneath a blanket in the basket and have them placed on top. Keeps my collection manageable. … so far.

They look so comfy all swaddled up! Love your basket :heart_eyes:. I had one for my youngest and used it all the time until it became a toy basket for my daughters dolls and eventually fell apart :disappointed:. I’ll have to keep on the look out for another one

Thanks! I think they look really sweet like this, and I like how I can easily pick one up if I want to.

@PhotographyForLife I try and tell myself they can only wear one outfit at a time! But my dogs have about 9396782 sweaters and coats and things so I clearly do not listen to myself. :joy: The baby clothes I’ve been able to keep myself good though.
