ok so after unboxing my newest addition to the BJD WIP crew this afternoon, i really wanted to get my dolls organized. so i took everyone who is currently disassembled and in mid-modding off of the various work surfaces in my art room, bagged them all up (some of them were already in gallon freezer bags) and... the result was this box. which contains seven disassembled 1:3 scale bjds. NO MORE PROJECT DOLLS, this needs to get cleared out. wtf, self 😭😭😭
a goal that i have been working on that's kind of connected to/a co-goal with finishing my dolls, is redoing my art/doll room. my house in itself is basically a giant WIP that i live in, bc when i bought it many years ago it was old and in super shambolic condition (hence me being able to afford it) and i'm still sloooowly working on fixing it up (bc i also can't afford to just top to bottom redo a house in one big go like house-flippers do!) when i first got the place, i had to completely gut the room i use as my art room and there were some rotten old pipes that were beyond my ability to DIY that needed repair...then once i got some basic drywall up i had the idea that i would let it be a super neutral white box situation to help with both light and minimizing visual clutter so i could focus on stuff better. after some years of that...i have realized i hate it 😅 there is a reason no other part of my house is a neutral/beige/white/minimalist space, and it's bc i hate that style. so i recently painted the walls a nice strong blue, and i am working on actually finishing out and decorating the room so it doesn't feel like a soulless cubicle
and part of finally making the whole room how i want it, to me, is having my dolls all put together and looking nice in their display instead of being in bags and piles all over the place 😅 so getting this parts box worked thru and emptied is, in my mind, an element of finishing my doll WIPS and finishing my room
all of which is to say i have a lot of shit to do 😅
