I just want to formally thank everyone for coming to the Workshop. It was wonderful working with everyone, meeting new people, and sharing thoughts and experiences.

The workshop will only get better in time. So feel free to bring any unfinished project with you to the next one. Even if the topic on hand does not pertain to the workshop, we are here to help you!

Thanks everyone and enjoy that amazing weather!

Questions about the Supplies!

Here are some answers to some questions brought up for supplies:

By the "paper kind" of duct tape, do you mean the blue painters tape?
Painters tape is fine to use.

What size rubber bands should I have?
Any sized rubber bands really. If you have the skinny kind, bring a lot! If you have the fatter kind you only need a couple. ;D

If I don't bring an SBL doll, should I bring an RBL, EBL or ADG?
Feel free to bring any blythe doll that you would like help on. We can help you with not just how to open them but general questions on how to do other things.
