The Ultimate Guide to Traveling with Ball-Jointed Dolls

BJD carrying bag


Being a ball-jointed doll (BJD) collector, you might want to take them with you on your travels. Bringing a BJD carrying bag is a huge help for bringing your precious dolls along. But traveling with BJDs can be challenging, especially if you are not prepared.

When it comes to traveling with ball jointed dolls, here are some BJD travel tips:

  1. Choose the right dolls to bring. You don't have to bring your entire collection with you unless you really want to. Consider the size, weight, and fragility of your dolls, as well as the theme and purpose of your trip. Make sure your BJD carrier can fit your doll and won’t hold you down.

    If you are going to a tropical destination, you might want to bring a doll that suits the climate and the scenery. If you are going to a convention or a meetup, you might want to bring a doll that showcases your style and creativity.

  2. Pack your dolls carefully. You want to protect your dolls from damage, dirt, and theft during your travels. You can use a BJD carrying bag or a regular suitcase or backpack, as long as it has enough padding and compartments. Wrap your dolls in a soft cloth or bubble wrap, and secure their limbs and joints with rubber bands or string. You can also remove their heads and wigs and store them separately in ziplock bags or boxes. Don't forget to pack their accessories, clothes, shoes, and tools in separate bags or containers as well.

  3. Carry your dolls with you. It is safer and more convenient to keep your dolls with you as carry-on luggage than to check them in as baggage. This way, you can avoid the risk of losing them or having them damaged by rough handling or extreme temperatures. You can also keep an eye on them and enjoy their company during your flight or ride. However, be aware of the size and weight limits of your airline or transportation company, and be prepared to pay extra fees if necessary.

  4. Be respectful and courteous. Traveling with BJDs can attract attention and curiosity from other people, especially if they are not familiar with them. Be polite and friendly when answering questions or comments about your dolls, and don't be offended if some people find them creepy or weird. You can also use this opportunity to educate others about BJDs and share your passion with them. However, be respectful of the cultural and social norms of your destination, and avoid displaying your dolls in inappropriate or offensive ways.
