Ganesha?



runs

A few hints n toips to get you started.

1) They are easier to dress with the head off (But as you get to know her you feel guilty for doing it!).

2) skirts go on easier over the head

3) Powder them (I use cornflour, some others use talc) before attempting to get jeans on them.

4) body stockings prevent stains

5) Primark size xxs tops

6) Socks on their hands when they go to bed. Hands are real delicate. treat them as though they are made of egg shells.

7) Thermal styling hair brushes and / or tangle teasers

8) A different (cheap) wig for in the bed to out of it.

9) under wig nylon wig caps prevent wig staining

10) Get ready to learn the dark art of womens makeup. You will need a powder pallette, an eye shadow pallet (that has a white) and some quality brushes as you are effectively painting their faces. I also have a selection of lipsticks for them but you can also use eye shadow as lippy.

11) for cleaning off makeup / minor marks. White miro fibre cloth and Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The cloths work better as they age. New dry ones drink too much of the EVOL.

12) Lots of Cornflour or Talc. I apply cornflour to mine with a four inch sable paint brush (the brush has to be soft).

13) Keep her out of direct sunlight. UV light kills them.

14) white sheets and pillow cases in bed.

15) keep her cool. well away from radiators / hot pipes.

You will pick up loads more on here but thats a good starter checklist.

Have fun together and hurry up and tell us what her name is :tu

Shamus.

Mmm, I never forget :21:24:21:21:24

My Callie is supposed to be 32kg and I find it easy to carry her if she is in a seated position

start with her lying on your bed, raise one leg to 90 degrees, then bend her knee down, repeat with the other leg, then turn and raise her to be seated on the side of the bed

move the arm nearest to you away, so you don't damage either her arm or hands by crushing

with one arm under her knees, your other around her back, lift with your knees.

an office chair is a common suggestion for moving between rooms, as is checking the way is clear and doors are open, difficult to open a door when both your hands are full

and do take a look at https://www.uklovedollforums.co.uk/f...ght=protection

I obviously meant the big brain, not the body :24

Plus you get the added feel good factor of hearing them going Wheeeeee.... as you pull them from room to room.... What! Your's don't shout Wheeeee?.... I thought that everyone's did that!

Lol, When my Mother came to stay when she was on her last legs this time last year she couldn't walk at all. I would lift her out of bed (wouldn't have been able to do that without being a doll owner!), put her in an office chair and took her to the toilet that way. She did comment that it was such a clever idea. However did I think of it! :whistle:

Lol, reminds me. When moving the girls around in the room above her there would be quite a bit of floorboard creaking. She questioned what it was to which I responded that it was just the Elves. Bless, she thought I was joking with her :21:24

Shamus you are far too modest. We've all seen you :tu

To be fair my first thought was Nurgle :21:21:21:21:21

Or put tights on them first.

Really?

OK so for anything that has to go over the hip/bum I use this method (I dont hand or stand my girls for dressing)

.Lay her on her back with her legs bent 90' straight up on a low table or the bed.
.Put on what ever it going on (jeans, skirt, Knickers, Bodysuit etc) and work it up to the hips/crotch
.Bend the knees 90' and part the legs slightly, then get you head between her knees and your shoulders behind her knees.
.Straighten yourself up and her hip will rise from the bed
.You now have both hands free to get whatever over her hips

Also Shameless plug but Maddie did cover some bedtime protection ideas
