antimonia Posted January 8, 2017 Hey, I'm Maggy, I'm from chicago-ish. I love dolls. Resin, vinyl, off topic, on topic. I just have a love. Even some vintage dolls have found their way into my collection that is ever growing. I fell in love with DolfieDreams recently (within the past 3 months) after having a love/hate relationship with them first seeing them. I loved them, but everything told me not to... 'Cause stains. That's my only trepidation on vinyl. SO if anyone can give me pointers, or direct me to threads with pointers, come at me (not that I'm not gonna look myself, you guys just have been here longer lol) anyway! Can't wait to get to know you all! Much love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cauldroness Posted January 10, 2017 Welcome Fellow Midwesterner! If you're interested in meeting local-ish hobbyists, consider joining the ChiTownDollz group (http://chitowndollz.com/). They usually have a meet-up once a month. There aren't many DDs in the group yet but I'm working hard to change that! Doll Photos & Doll Jewelry Sales: Follow me on Instagram!
