Kansas doll show 2024

Had a fun time in Wichita (got home just before noon today). I took 16 babies and painted a silicone while I was there. I sold 11 babies (including the silicone) so I brought 6 back home. Just under $9000.00 in sales, so I was pleased. I will attempt to share a few photos… was so glad to see other BB forum ladies there with Katina and Rachel … Caitlyn and Yelena and Amanda…






DAY TWO TABLE… Phoenix became a girl and still didn’t find a home…

It was such fun/ unexpected/ surprise trip for me.
I was so happy to see everyone, especially my close friends.
I just arrived also, so pictures will come later. I didn’t take many pictures of the dolls, so don’t expect my usual giant pictures dump, LOL.
Mostly my pictures were taken with artists and friends, which I am not going to post here.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT ALL MY PICTURES FROM THE SHOW FLOOR ARE MUCH-MUCH-MUCH DARKER THAN THOSE BABIES WERE IN THE REAL LIFE.
ALSO SHOW LIGHT MADE MANY BABIES VERY YELLOW.

Contest babies:

One of my favorites: @Katinafleming 's Peeka as kitten :star_struck: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :heart_eyes:

1st place Peeka winner was absolutely amazing with changing lights inside and visible brain

I loved seeing everyone! We had an awesome time and honestly it was probably my fav show experience to date. Very laid back, chill, just relaxing really. I also was super happy to see most people doing very well with sales. The vibe was super good.

I agree! It is a very laid back and fun show! Plenty of room on the show floor for vendors and not all cramped up. Yet the show room is full of vendors and variety. I enjoyed getting to see the BB girls and visit more with you all here.

This was my most stress free doll show. DOTWE was super stressful for me. I usually have a contest baby for Kansas to stress about but this year I didn’t. I didn’t bring a doll at all. I was free and relaxed, had a great time. Yelena I actually am enjoying seeing your people pictures more than doll pictures anyway.
