Добавлен 29 май 2023
Maggie to the Rescue is for adult collectors (and the kids in their lives) to enjoy watching doll rescue projects and other fun doll related stuff. With the assistance of Lil Maggie, the videos are meant to be entertaining and sometimes educational. In a time when many of us are stressed, Maggie to the Rescue is a place to come for a little relief. And I hope these videos will help spread the love and importance of rescuing and restoring dolls!

Two old rag dolls from an estate sale are too fragile to submerge in water. In order to freshen them up, I go through a process to get dust, smells, and stains out of them without washing them. Maggie and a big sister look on as an adorable little sailor gets the royal treatment and he goes from Rags to Riches! #calmingvideos #vintagetoys #cabbagepatch #porcelaindoll

One can use boiling water for hair of modern dolls to untangle them.
Thanks for the tip! 💕
Running water into her eyes can cause the mechanism to rust. It is not how Beth recommends cleaning them.
Hi! Thank you. I totally agree about water with lots of dolls! I'm learning to just use a baby wipe when possible. But in this case that awful fungus had to go. The denture cleaner was recommended by a professional doll restorer specifically for Crissy eye mold. It worked wonders. No scratches (like other methods can create). And I got 100% of the water out of her head. BUT that part I need to do without removing her head!
Thanks for sharing knowledge!
Thanks for watching! 💕
Do you take dolls and fix them for people? Could i ship you one? 😅
Interesting! If you want to send me an email at maggiesdollrescue@gmail.com we can discuss!
Omg Loved Your video what kind of doll is maggie and Chrissy what makes dolls get covered in mold you did an amazing job keep up the good work Blessings
Thank you so much! 💕 Maggie is just a little generic doll I've had for years. My guess is the mold is from being in a moist environment. Often dolls kept in basements will get moldy. Thanks again, so glad you enjoyed it!
Rubbing alcohol removes and kills eye fungus.
Thanks for the tip! I'm curious if you know what kinds of doll eyes it's best for? My eye doc said not to use alcohol on my plastic glasses lenses so I just translated that to doll eyes. But maybe that's different?
thats so exciting you could find homes you wanted as a kid
It was! Thank you. 💕
Wow!! This is wonderful!
Thank you! 💕
Great job!
Thank you! 💕
Can you please share that vacuum you use? Love your videos!
Thank you! I meant to say it's a keyboard vac! The brand of mine is PeroBuno 3 in 1 air duster & vac, my husband got on Amazon.
What a wonderful restoration! I agree with you about plastic! Thanks for the inspiration & tips to rescue dolls from the past!❤
Aw, thank YOU! 💕
They are so cute! They look happy!
@@harrietwalton3314 Thank you! 😊
This was so cool! What great tips for fabric dolls. I hadn’t even thought about restoring them before. I like to buy plastic dolls second hand and make them my own usually. They turned out so great.
Thank you and so glad you're giving second hand dolls a second life! 😊
He looks so good! I love sailors and it’s so fun to see these classic dolls fixed to perfection, such an upgrade!! Thanks for making this video!
@Timlesstoybox Aw thank YOU! That means a lot. 💕
What a fabulous little salor man ❤ such cute dollies 😊
@@nolasdollsandaquatics9386 Thank you! 🥰
I think your little sailor doll looks great. I'm going to try the corn starch on my Bradley dolls dirty legs.
@kathrynmatson6533 Oh that's a good test! I often see them stained. Love big eyed dolls. Good luck! Let us know how it goes! 💕
@@MaggieToTheRescue Thanks I will 😊
My brother was in the Coast Guard, and my Mom made him a little sailor doll that looked like your little sailor doll. I love this!💜💜💜 The doll was kept in a shadow box. He was so cute.
@@pllennox Awwww! I LOVE that she did that!! Maybe this doll has a similar past. Thanks for sharing. 💕
I so love how you restore these dolls! I usually don't buy used stuff dolls as I have so many allergies. But I could use this method on some of the stuffed dolls I already own. Wonderful job!!
@DebsDollRoom Thank you! If you have allergies, I do think a little vacuum could help (if your dolls aren't washable in water). Appreciate you watching! 💕
I love how you love and restore these dolls. He’s just adorable and I’m glad you rescued him! 😊
Thank you! Your support means a lot! 💕
I read one time that the spray carpet cleaner in a can that you spray then let dry then vacuum could be used on cloth dolls. I have never seen this technique done and I have never had a doll to try it on myself. Have you ever heard of this?
That sounds really promising! I'm going to look into it. Thanks so much! 💕
I use alcool in order to clean my dolls.
I don't want to offend you.....but why don't you wash the bodies or the whole doll and the wigs with hot water and laundry soap and sanitizer? They are very dirty, if you wash them the chocolate colored water comes out! I'm the ones I find at the street markets. 'used I wash and disinfect all of them, including fabrics, hair, clothes and padding....It makes me sick to touch them first...and they are often really filthy! I see in various US videos that they place them on beds, sofas, rugs, carpets , ugh, why?
Hi! Unfortunately, these sweet dolls are too old and the fabric and yarn have "dry rotted" and would fall apart in the wash. That's why I did the video! 🥰 They had no dusty smell at all, so I was lucky on that count. 💕
Old dolls like this one are filling with poor material, with the water you will have stains and they do not dry too. Some dolls have wire inside their body. And the fabric is usually too old to be washed.
@@estm7481 So true. Thank you! 💕
Another wonderful transformation! You really breathe new life into these forgotten treasures. It’s always a joy to watch you work with an abundance of care and patience 👏♥️👏♥️
Aw, thank you!!! 🥰
I love your dolls and your cleaning tips will come handy for restoring cloth dolls. I recently found a vintage Little Red Riding Hood Tipsy with Granny and Bad Wolf (3 in 1) doll. She is made of cloth and I was hesitant on how I could clean her but now I will use your tutorial to give her a nice makeover. Thank you so much for your videos. 🥰
Acqua calda e sapone ....a meno che non sia una Lenci Torino.
Depending on her age and the condition of her fabric, you may be able to wash her! But if she's very old, a makeover is probably best. Good luck! 💕
@@MaggieToTheRescue Thank you!
@@alanomerle2707 Thank you!
I love them and as usual, you have done a fabulous job with them!
Thank you!! 🥰
How wonderful that you rescued these adorable dolls!! I shy away from stuffed dolls and animals when I am getting stuff second hand because I don't know how to fix them up but this helps! I agree about the overwhelming amount of plastic, and while I do buy new dolls I try to thrift things more often to help keep plastic out of landfills and the ocean :)
@SmallPlasticWorld Yes! Same. I still buy so many things made of plastic, but trying to use thrifted items when I can. I also shy away from stuffed animals because we live in an apt without a washer/dryer. But I do manage to hand wash & dry sometimes. Thanks for comments & for watching! 💕
Cornstarch and makeup powder, who knew?! I started sewing cloth dolls in the late 70s, and remember seeing patterns that looked like these dolls. Simple paper patterns with no photos, just line drawings. Haven't sewn in years now. Your dolls are adorable.
That's wonderful. Do you still have any that you made? With fabric from the 70s I assume you could hand wash or throw in a machine? Thanks for watching! 💕
@@MaggieToTheRescue I don't think I have any after a few moves, gave them away. I made a mermaid lady once with teal tail and clamshell fabric bra. Baby dolls, even modified a flat doll pattern into cats, adding ears and a tail. And upside down dolls. All my patterns gone now.
@@karen4you The Mermaid sounds amazing! I hope she is somewhere making someone very happy.
Those dolls are adorable. You did a great job cleaning them!!!
@@GrannyNoodles Thank you!! I love them too. Imagining the hand that made them as well as the love they've received makes them extra beautiful to me. Thanks for watching! 💕
@@MaggieToTheRescue I agree! It was a pleasure!🤎
I love cloth dolls so much!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Never thought of using baby wipes on the eyes. I am so happy I found your channel!!
Thank you! And glad I found your channel! 💕
This is so nostalgic for me as I played with Barbie and the Rockers and plus I had their music tapes and stage! Thank you for restoring and taking such great care of these dolls 💛
@heatherwoods296 So glad it brought back happy memories! It's such a fun & dynamic Barbie line. Thank you for watching! 💕
Thank you! I am rebuilding my grandmother's german doll. She has ball joints as well. I suspect she is a JDK but I am still trying g to identify the marks.
How wonderful! JDK faces are so beautiful. Most have similar bow lips and multi stroke brows. Does she just have a number on the back of her head? If so, you are probably right! Lucky you, and lucky doll to have you to restore her!💕
@@MaggieToTheRescue Yes, She is a D series model 174. The full back of the head says D "made in Germany" 8 with the number 174 beneath that. It took a while but a found a 174 picture. I am seeking a wig for her. Her eyes are brown and her eyebrows ash brown. Do you know what a family would have paid for her in her time? She belonged to my dad's stepmom whom he loved dearly. She was an only daughter.
How wonderful! It's a doll lover's dream to have a beloved doll passed down to them. I don't know much she would have cost originally, but I'm sure any German bisque doll as a gift at that time was an expense and treasured! The Florence & George site has some books that are reprints of original catalogs...maybe you could find out that way? Good luck, so glad she is in good hands! 🥰
Fun !🎎🧚♀️🧞♀️
So happy you rescued her!! When you use rollers do you use anything else to hold the curl?
@DebsDollRoom Thank you! Do you mean a product in her hair? I didn't and so far, so good, but let me know if you recommend something!
@@MaggieToTheRescue I have had no success at curling hair. Just wondering if you used something.
@DebsDollRoom I found alternating warm & cool settings on a hairdryer can help. The small sponge rollers are good cause you can wind the hair as loose or tight as desired. But the biggest help is when the doll comes with some "natural" curl or wave in the first place! 😊
@@MaggieToTheRescue Thanks!
Beautiful MA Dolls! Just love the little Maggie doll! Too cute!
@harrietwalton3314 Thank you! And lil Maggie says thanks too. 😘
Oh my, I am going to look for these dolls!
Sehr süß.🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️👍👍👍👍👍❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹🙏🙏🙏entzückend.
I really like hearing the detailed explanations of what looks different between the antique dolls and the 80s one. Seeing you change her really made it clear.
I'm so glad that made it clearer!Thank you for watching! 💕
I’m 61 just bought a velvet off eBay going to restore ! Thanks for the tips !
@@geethebirdnerd That's fantastic! Lmk how she comes out! I found another Crissy AND a Velvet at my local thrift shop. It was a great day! 😊
Yes, Dollsparts Co. is still in business
They look amazing 🤩
Thank you! 💕
Awww you did a lovely job giving those dolls a makeover and I love the cabbage patch kids dolls 💖
Thank you! I can't wait to get the CPKs cleaned up. 🩷
I am a new subscriber. Can't wait to catch up on your videos!
Thank you! Back attcha. Love the youtube doll community! 💕
Wow, crazy how not a lot can really change the doll!! I have recently become interested in Victorian and Edwardian era porcelain dolls and they are so cool! Pretty different from my usual 1950’s doll collection but maybe I’ll get one.
Yes! I hope you do! I often see them in thrift shops ready for a makeover and their next chapter. If you do, lmk! 💕
I'm obsessed with ur channel 🩷
That's so sweet! Thank you!!!🥰
@@MaggieToTheRescue Omg ur welcome!! 💚💚
What a beautiful dress and boots! I like the Gretchen wigs too. I have used unscented baby wipes to clean dolls for at least 20 years, and prefer them to chemical cleaners unless absolutely necessary! Your doll turned out beautifully!
Thank you!! And glad to hear it about the baby wipes! 💕
It’s kinda sad that porcelain dolls are not fully rooted, but WIGS 😢 just like Korean dolls. Thrift stores has a lot of original 90’s barbies in good condition still unbox 😊
Rooted is fun, but you might like wigs too! Cause you can change hair color and style in a split second! 💕
@@MaggieToTheRescue YES 👍 Rerooting isn’t just fun, it’s also a relief of changing or transforming dolls hair either it’s thick or longer
Oh my goodness this is so cool! Please do another one of these videos! I so want to try this with a porcelain doll I have. Fantastic idea!
Thank you!! I will. If your doll is beloved, you may want to experiment on a tlc thrift doll first. Thanks for your support! 💕
It is a relaxing joy to see your transformations of these sweet dolls. This one was simply outstanding.
Aw, you made my day!! Thanks for your kindness and support. 💕
Beautiful job! She looks so cute, amazing makeover❤
Thank you! 🩷🩷
