Hi! I'm Ting, and I am a serial hobbyist. This is a channel to explore and document my hobbies.
At the moment, it is primarily will be BJD (Ball Jointed Doll) focused, with a penchant towards acquisition/unboxing and sewing, but whatever I find inspiring at the time. I'm also figuring out video editing which is a whole other hobby in and of itself.
I hope this to be a record of my progression, and feel free to join me along the way!

I dont think i have ever seen this sculpt from Iplehouse. So pretty 🤩
Omg I didn’t realize it was you despite watching your channel! I was there, as a South Jersey person I’d love to go to a Philly meet up!
That's such a cool coincidence that you guys moved to the same side of the country lol! Looks like a nice meetup!
Yes! It was such a lovely turn of events. The meetup is really nice, and I will definitely be going again in the new year. Yay for more doll friends!
You are very sweet ! Not implying anything ! I am 80 plus years 🙀👵🏻😱OLD ! I just believe in complimenting nice people ! Bad people need our love and help too ! To set them on a better path forward ! Of course that’s if they choose to become a nicer ,better person !
Excuse me madame, how could I purchase order an LLT doll?
The way that I ordered my LLT Doll was to contact them via email, but their preorder periods are infrequent. I would suggest following Julia on Instagram (instagram.com/juliacross666/ ) as that is where I hear about preorder announcements. Based on her recent activity, it appears there should be a opening soon.
Had so much fun hanging out and taking pics! Gabe still has his pinecones hahahaha
It was such a fun day! We’ll have to go back again soon.
You having doll plans and then your dolls immediately vetoing said plans XD Thank you for the update! It's really nice to see the new additions and changes in your collection.
Awww. Thank you so much. It was nice to be able to put a video together. Dolls really have a mind of their own! So opinionated 😆 It’ll be fun to see what stories they tell me.
Have you figured out how to work the hanging light?
I did! At the end of the video I have a small demo of it turning on and off.
I’ll be at BJDC Austin. I will have a booth, Purple Wulf Designs. Please stop by and say hi.
Молодец!:-)
This was a fun video. I love seeing these as well for an overview of the collection. Sometimes there are dolls that I’ve never heard of and would like to add to my collection. Hopefully, 2022 was an interesting year for you.
I love this, im also from texas so I'll have to go to that convention some day! And btw I love your black cherry hybrid doll! What skin color did you match together for the body and head?
Rats, I was looking forward to seeing the booths
Do you have a shop because your doll is pretty 🤩
No, I do not make dolls, but rather I buy blank ones from the artists and style them. This doll is a Raccoon Doll Gene SD (th-cam.com/video/JKUGkmo_i24/w-d-xo.html) and she is on the Supia Dolls Ballerina Body (th-cam.com/video/3fby7z17SJg/w-d-xo.html).
Your doll looks pretty
Thank you!
Liked and shared to my community post. I enjoyed your video :)
That is so incredibly kind of you. Thank you so much!
Fun. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mad respect for your sewing skills. Enjoying your videos!
Glad to hear that the videos are enjoyable. I will back to sewing in the next few months I hope once life calms down a little bit. If you have ideas on what else would be interesting, please let me know. I make things as I experience them, but if there’s something you’re interested in, I can see if it can get worked in and filmed. 🙂
I love that your dolls have underwear. That's so cute and makes them feel so much more complete.
I feel the same way. I do try to give them all undergarments if I can. The thong/panties sometimes get pulled in by the hip elastic/socket though which can be annoying.
Thank you for posting this! So helpful
I hope it was educational/entertaining if nothing else. I still haven't done anything with the sleeping plate. 😅
Nice!
That is quite the haul. The quality looks really good! 😊
It was a lot, and yes the quality is lovely. So many boots!
Those are ao cute!❤❤❤ love them! I hope i could buy my boy a new pair ❤
@@HalcyonStraits i have a 1/3 60 cm doll
Nice! Depending on your doll’s foot length and width, these shoes might be a bit large on them. Iplehouse dolls have larger feet. I hope you’re able to get a nice pair for your doll!
Hi I wondered what clothes fit the vision body as I have one but it’s my first 1/3rd doll and I don’t want to buy trousers that don’t fit but want to get her ttya clothes and wondered if you had anything that fit her?
Thank you for this video. Can't find 4.5mm elastic cord around. Just see 4 and 5mm :(
Wow! I hate removing faceups but the head looks brand new!
I find wiping faceups oddly satisfying. Just like restringing, the results are immediate, and usually achievable in 30 minutes. Everything else is much more incremental. 😅
They are so gorgeous
Such a pretty sculpt, even without the faceup. ☺
Yes! I agree. I am excited to see what she will become in a capable artist's hands.
That sounds like so much fun!!! I haven’t been to any doll cons or any meetups in person unfortunately. :( I am thinking of trying to get some people together though in my area so who knows. ;) love the cute dress on your Xiao Yu!!! Super sweet and adorable!!
I like the color match of the first one, but think the 2nd one looks best in every other way. I like the head size better and the way it fits onto the neck better. 🥰
Epsilon is the clear favorite, but it’s like home team advantage. I wanted to give Adan a fair shot. I put a poll on Instagram too, and Epsilon got basically a super majority vote there. 😄
Congratulations! It’s nice to see some good photos of these heads! I agree with you and I’m also surprised the RDean head was too small and it makes me wonder if Aiden was resized just like Rei to be smaller.
😲
....
I laughed at those horns spinning at the end. 😂 What kind of sanding thingie was that on your Dremel?
Amazing! I have a Midi Xiao in the inverted colors of your Xi! The light blue is absolutly lovely! I still have to sand mine but oh lord is it alot of pieces lol (+ i had to sand 2 other blooms aswel)
Yes! I really like the light blue too. I almost wish I got it for my midi Xiao, but I like the contrast of the two. Sanding is always a bit of a chore, but they feel so much nicer afterwards.
Cute! :D
Both fade-ups look lovely! Making me want to get a SD doll in my collection….
Liv did such a lovely job on them. SD sized dolls are a commitment for sure--especially when it comes to space. This scale is what I started with, and I'm at the point where it's too much work to change to a different scale. At least this sculpt has a mini version if you collect 1/4 scale.
He is beautiful! I love the Alpha sculp! Blessings ❤️😇
Absolutely agree!! I am still holding out hope that one of the Alphabet heads come on the second hand market!
I just got my MSD Diana in today and I was wondering about the S hook for the head until you said it wouldn't ever fit. I forced mine to fit by somehow getting the larger part through the hole and pulling it through that way, but I'll look into getting a different one soon
Congratulations on getting your Diana! I don’t know if the S hook discrepancy is just Diana or all Dollshe dolls, but I was quite baffled at the weird sizing. If you got it through and it isn’t too much of a bother to take the head off as you need, then it may not be necessary to get a different one. I more knowing myself would be frustrated every time I needed to change her clothes, so I nipped that in the bud. Good luck!
I ended up trying to order from the website, and at the time of this post, there is a minimum of 10 items and ships via UPS Ground.
Ha, first view. Maybe the white one would work as a doll sized floor lamp?
So realistic, and beautiful!
Aren’t they? The artist is going to open an international preorder in June, so if you want to get some for yourself, there will soon be an opportunity.
I really enjoyed watching you I unpack there unstrung doll. It was very easy to see all the details individually. Thanks for the vid
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I should have one more body incoming and then I can do a body comparison video soon.
Really great video!!!! Thank you!
I didn't see that you'd filmed this box opening as well! Congratulations on the doll! The body is gorgeous!
I really like what you are doing! Keep going!!!!🥺💕💕
Thank you for your kind words! I hope to continue on documenting my adventures!
i want frappzilla dolls so bad but they're so limited I just cant get my hands of them 😭😭
Great unboxing! I love my Farrell. He’s definitely a BIG boy! 😅 Can’t wait to see who yours becomes! 💕
