Hello! I'm new here as well as to the BJD hobby in general. When looking around at different forums, this one stuck out to me because of the laid back environment and overall lack of drama. So far, it's the only dolleih forum I am a part of.
I recently ordered my very first BJD after wanting one for a long, long time. She is a 60cm Mirodoll Annie (does anyone here have that sculpt?) and I think I will name her Anastasiya Janne. The thing that attracted me most to this hobby was that it plays into every sort of creativity a person could have. My goal is to make everything I possibly can for my doll (faceup, eyes, clothes, shoes, furniture, accessories), so I certainly have a lot of work ahead of me!
I'm currently a college student living in a tiny dorm, but have already set aside a small place for Stasiya. I imagine my desk will soon become quite cluttered with fabric and pastels But hey, I'm not complaining.
I'm definitely looking forward to meeting all of you lovely people and your dolls! I have already stalked the photostory board quite a bit and can't wait until I can begin posting my own!
