My "Dolly" Experience and Giveaway. WINNER ON ORIGINAL POST.

Post by Tina »

I just wanted to make this post to explain some of the changes in my life which are entirely down to me discovering this wonderful hobby, I say hobby because I have a lot of wonderful things in my life including my dolls but I am not obsessive about them or think they are real babies. :baby:
I got my first reborn 2.5 years ago :elephant: after seeing a doll on ebay, I showed it o my hubby and he said "If you like it buy it" so I did and he has supported me In this hobby ever since, I am also fortunate to have my daughter involved now as she has recently purchased her first reborn :heart:.
And then of course there is Doll Fan, I would say 99% of my experiences on here have been positive and friendly :grouphug: and I count a lot of ladies on here as friends, I have been very fortunate to meet a couple of wonderful ladies through DF and this hobby, Kellie and I have become great friends this year and she gives me some of the BEST advice on all things, not just doll related but life in general, I hope I do the same for her :hug: .
I also have a friend from DF who lives not too far from me and we have met up a couple of times and she too is a good friend to me.
Anyway, I just wanted to share my journey with you all and as a way of saying Thanks to you all I would like to do a giveaway, I am going to Florida at the end of this week and while I am there I will buy a gift for the winner, you can choose from a baby outfit, your choice of size and gender, something for yourself, I will pick something nice for you, or you may choose a MACY'S (USA/CANADA) gift card or Next (UK).
I will do the draw on Wednesday (3rd Sept). I will use a number generator to pick winner.
I will post your prize when I get back home as soon as I can get to a Post Office.

Thanks for taking time to read my story. x :foryou: :hi ya:

THE WINNER OF MY DRAW IS BARBI, CONGRATULATIONS.

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO LEFT SUCH SWEET COMMENTS, THEY REALLY MEAN A LOT TO ME. X :grouphug:

Tina, what a lovely idea!

That's so kind of you, starting that competition.

I've become a DF member last week, but I'm already impressed by that wonderful place here.

Even though most ladies live far away from me, and I'm not a native English speaker, I feel very embraced and warmly welcomed.

I wish, I could also make friendships for reality here, but this won't work, because you guys all live too far away from here.

But I must admit, that I've never seen such am friendly atmosphere in German dolly forums.

So, a big thank you to all of you!

Thank you for such a thoughtful gift. The first thing I do everyday is go to doll fan and read, I love this forum. I asked if anyone on here lives near me and I got one response about an hour away. This is my only way to connect to doll friends and I would be sad without it. Please enter me in your giveaway.

Thank you for sharing your positive experience! Your story makes me feel good about loving my reborn hobby/interest, but it also helps to know that I have supportive family (well the majority of them) and of course a place to share my reborn stuff (doll-fans). I have to agree on how kind everyone here is and how supportive all the gals on here are. Thank you for such a kind giveaway :) I'd love to enter if that is okay.

Thankyou for sharing your experience with us. So happy to hear that you enjoy it, as we all do. :). Having been a member on here for a very long time, I can attest to how awesome the ladies are on here are. They are a wonderful bunch, and I too, have made some lifelong friends, and lucky to have met a couple of them in person. :). This is the first place I check in the morning, to see what's going on, and what's new. Would be lost without it. ;)
I hope you have a wonderful time in Florida. :)

Thankyou again, and please enter my name in your draw.
Hugs Annette
