Arrrgh!! Help me do a last minute check to make sure I have everything before my doll comes!

AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! My VERY FIRST

bjd is arriving this Wednesday and I'm freaking out! I didn't want to deal with exspensive vinyl dolls or resin because even the thought of staining one of those scares me, so i got a plastic Proudoll instead. Plus, I'm a dark-skinnned girly and wanted a tan doll.(after reading those Danny Choo rants, I think I'll pass on Smartdoll). That doesn't mean I won't care for my doll though. I made a list of everything I'm going to buy.

• 5 silicone wigcaps(with these lil velcro grip things on them;btw they came in a pack) from amazon
• A VOLKS USA wig 9-10"*
• A stand from amazon
• a wig from etsy 8-9
• a ton of clothes
• some eyes from amazon
• some eye putty from VOLKS
• a stain protection turtleneck thingy from etsy
• and the doll

*I know the doll isn't 9-10, but I wanted the wig and it only came in that size, so I decided to layer wigcaps to add a few inches(something like that) is it reccomended? I haven't ordered the wig yet because I want to be sure.

PLEASE HELP

I can't speak as to the wigcap layering plan, but everything else seems like a good idea. I will just say to check the measurements of the clothes to make sure they fit before you buy them.

Congratulations. Good list but don't forget you will also need food and (especially) snacks for your new doll.

It looks like a good list, I will just say though that the wig caps are probably not needed to be honest. When I've had wigs with that extra inch, I was able to just pinch the back and throw a little hand stitch there to shorten the band size. You won't notice it under the hair. 

Congrats on your girl! And enjoy!! 

Thank you so much everyone! My arrives today and even though not all the accessories are here yet, I'm really exited. 😄 I might try layering wig caps, but l think hand sewing (@sunlightandtea) might be easier for me if the wig trick doesn't work out. Thanks again! 💕💕

If it’s a standard 1/3 sized head then I don’t think you need to layer the wig caps. It’s always best to buy the standard size for a head (which would be 8-9 inch in this case), but you can often go one size up without too much of an issue. One silicone cap should be enough to stop it from moving around, but it might look oversized if the face is small…
