1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

The Resin Rose BJD Expo March 14th of 2015 in Portland Oregon

Jul 22, 2014



    1. [​IMG]

      Hi all!
      :D

      I have a super exciting announcement to make!


      On March 14th, 2015, the Resin Rose BJD club will be hosting an all day, one day expo at Portland Meadows in Portland, Oregon.
      There will be vendors, invited artists, photo ops, contests, and prizes! After the show, we will even have a Swap Meet, for those who would like to participate~


      Portland Meadows is an iconic Portland landmark featuring a horse track, floor to ceiling windows with sweeping views of three local snow-capped mountains, with a spacious lounge for people to kick back and relax. There will be finger foods and drinks included in the registration, as well.

      The venue naturally lends itself to this year's theme, A Day at the Derby.

      The Resin Rose BJD Expo will be held in the Turf Club on the third floor; we will have our own private entrance at the south side of the building. There are stairs, an escalator, and an elevator up to the event site. Portland Meadows will be catering light snacks and a juice bar, with considerations to special dietary needs. There will be lots of seating with four levels of private booths for people to hang out, as well as seating near the food with special consideration to those with limited mobility.
      In addition to the catering we will provide, there is separate onsite restaurant. Portland Meadows also boasts a full bar and video poker separate from the expo space with different entrance, for those feeling a little lucky!
      :wiggle

      There will be a designated outside smoking area, but the inside of the building is smoke free. Also nearby are many hotels for those coming in from out of town, and the location is conveniently off Interstate 5!

      We welcome anyone and everyone, to come join us at the races for a day of fun, shopping and prizes!

      Save the date and check out our website: http://resinrosebjd.com/
      Or find us on Facebook!:
