The Doll Forum

We know that most people store them hanging in closet, but there are many ways to store a doll, especially when you don't want others to see, help us understand more answering to this pool

Mine all hang out locked in the spare bedroom. Usually have one or two hanging out in my room.

My three stay in my bedroom, two in my bed (I sleep between them) and one standing (leaning against the wall). My closets aren’t suitable for doll storage.

My elderly mother (she’ll be 90 this year) lives with me for most of the year and finds my hobby quite amusing - she has shown me how to plait hair and I can ask her for advice on applying makeup.

But I do close my bedroom door if we have visitors who don’t know about my girls.

pretty amazing!! would you like to share more of your story and dolls! we'd love to learn more about your story!

Jenny stays in my bed and I shut the door to my room when guests are over, which is rarer than a solar eclipse...

I have 36 dolls now.
Normally my company comes over to see them not me.
Otherwise I try to hide people from them
by making them all look down
and not watching the door like they normally do.

love it! yeah, based on survey most people don't want to hide them. We hope to be able to help growing the family if you want!

I have an old bar table that I do not use and it is almost as tall as my doll so she can stand behind it in my clothing storage room. I cover it with some white fleece blankets and she's gone until further notice.

I've never felt the need to hide my gals. Most I do is make sure they're presentable and respectably dressed.

I keep my dolls that do not hang in large cable trunks/flight cases. They are my 3 Ruby13 dolls and a Z-Onedoll. My dolls that hang are kept in custom crates that I built. All of these not only store them but protect them.

More than anything, I would Love to be able to have a couple of dolls out all of the time but my living situation simply will not allow it.

I have been looking for a new home and look forward to the day when that happens which will then make it possible for me to have one or two around more often. Until then I enjoy them when I can which isn't often but it's nice knowing they are there, nearby waiting patiently

I don't hide my doll.
Anyone who has a problem with her is welcome to leave my apartment again.
