This is a good rule and I could almost follow it. I just need to paint faster or they need to stop coming out with kits so fast.

I have been on a kit diet for so long. They keep having sales and Iām so tempted. Then I tell myself that they will have it on sale again. I probably have 80 or more in my hoard. But they keep coming out with more and more new kits. I want them all lol

That is my hopeā¦
Some days I want to get rid of EVERYTHING, including my keeprs and not paint anymore.
But I definitely stopped buying from BB even with their 65% sales. I donāt trust that vinyl no no quality control.

What a great rule! But I mostly started to paint keepers and not much to sell .
LOL! and I just bought Raven Lau here, on a forum a min ago.
How can I resist if I wanted her for a long time and $75 is a great price?!

Destashing? Downsizing? 
I knew I forgot to do something. eyes stacks of baby clothes
I donāt have a lot of kits because living in Canada takes away the urge to over order, but I have way too much baby clothes. I donāt know what I was thinkingā¦ actually I donāt think I was thinkingā¦ just reacting to sweet baby clothes. Seriously, I know we all love sales but I think the best advice I could give a newbie is to only buy clothes once a baby is completed. Otherwise you can have thousands of dollars worth of clothes and still not find the outfit thatās quite right for that baby and end up shopping anyways. Even if you find one you love in your stash, whatās the point of putting so much $$ into clothes that sit there for weeks, months, even years? I could probably clothe 10 live infants or more with multiple outfits each. Itās embarrassing.

20 is my golden number. I have zero that I am āholding ontoā for a special reason and none that I couldnāt part with. I sold a few I thought I couldnāt part with and it felt good. That probably makes me a monster 
I think I have 19 right now. 2 are WIPs. I buy a kit almost every time I sell a doll. Sometimes I skip a few times and buy extra clothes and supplies.

I havenāt reached that point. Even with my hoarder craft room I still want to keep every scrap of it all.

I find the total opposite. Living in Canada makes me over order because every time I place an order I want to make it worth the shipping so I go crazy and order lots. I do agree about the clothes. How can you have so many and still not have anything?

I have made myself stop buying them also and these days I feel the same and also feel like I have lost my ability to do to create a realistic baby doll!

I really want to get down to 20, that is a good number.

I panic buy 3 or 4 if I get down to 15. Otherwise, it ebbs and flows just slightly. 
And it all fits in one big box!

You guys arenāt helping at all . So I asked my hubby to help me bring the bins of kits so I can make a list and even if it hurts begin to sell them off.
I just have way too many.

I love your rule! It makes me slow my roll with being impatient for my pre-orders to become REAL orders! By the time one pre-order becomes available, I should have at least two other kits completed and sold. Like the way I put a twist on your resolve? 
I can do this!
