Hello my dolly friends! I have a very fun giveaway this time! I listened to your suggestions and the majority preferred a vintage doll give away, so here we are!

I can't find this doll anywhere can you share the link please
I wish this video actually showed how to wind a bobbin.
Lol ~ sorry ~ this was one of my first ever videos, and I didn't even know how to take video much less edit...so I ended up making it in several parts ~ here is the link to the actual winding bobbin info ruclips.net/video/cV9ctygjP_E/видео.htmlsi=ftTS-Ep0Y3_-5iyB
Thanks I did find the others. Appreciate your efforts.
Pour maintenir les caoutchouc hors du corps au niveau des jambes, je traverse l’élastique en extension avec une longue et grande aiguille qui maintient les élastiques dehors le temps de fixer les jambes. Puis je l’enlève doucement pour fixer l’autre jambe. Pour les bras, je fais la même chose. J’ai appris cela chez Petitcollin à Étain en France. (Restauration poupons en celluloid). Le seul problème, être attentive à la tension du fil.
Love your video it is definitely a deluxe reading doll like you said in the video she's not a uneeda dollikin 21HH is the marking of Deluxe reading doll I have this doll unfortunately one of her knees has been glued so doesn't move
Very nice work! 😊
Omg the ponies and little details🎉
Beautiful thnku for sharing
hey do you know if blythe clothes will fit the 15cm bjds? i know they will be long but width wise
Thank you for this!
We camp 8 months per year and are looking for a mattress. Could you give us an update on your Wilderness RV Mattress? Did it old up?
It did indeed, we are still using that same mattress in our trailer and it has held up beautifully! Also, Since our bed is set up all of the time, it's the only other place to sit in our tiny trailer, so we sit on the edge of it allllllll the time, and the sides have not sagged or become misshapen whatsoever. It is sooo comfy, I love it!🥰💞💝
Did you have Saucy Walker patterns?
I do have a few patterns that are for saucy walker. I will try to get those put up in my etsy. It will be a week from now though, as I am heading off to Women's Conference this coming week. 😊
i recently stumbled upon your channel looking for reviews of Kawaii Japan Shop to see if they were legit, and i watched all your other content which is amazing !!! thank you for sharing your interests and haul!!! i bought so much memo pads to share with my penpals haha ❤❤❤
I'm so glad I was able be helpful! The Kawaii shop is so fun, isn't it? I have gone a little overboard there, lol!😁🤫
Great show, learned alot, oul in eyes, dont get stuff from china.. Only thrift dolls from China...
You’re not supposed to get water in vintage, dolls, eyes they will rust and mold
Hi, Can you tell me where you get your doll wigs? They're beautiful!
Thank you Robin! I have had the best luck finding them on ebay. I have found many gems in purchasing vintage wig lots. Try using any or all of the tag words : vintage doll wig lot nos . (The nos stands for New Old Stock, and means the wigs have not been glued down or used, even though they are quite old!)
@@CarolsCurrentObsession Thank you so much!
Usually old dolls are very creepy but these babies are actually adorable XD
What a precious sweet looking little face she has. Looks a bit like Drew Barrymore with her pouty lips and half smile. Thank you for showing her to us ❣️
doll hog
🤣🤣😂
you are awesome!!! I love that you have restored the most unrestorable dollies
You’re such a great MAGA 🩷🩷🩷
Grazie❤
😊
Can you tel me how to get the old wig and glue off of a vintage plastic doll like that? I would really appreciate it! Thank you!
Ok so if it's an original wig, it should just easily peel up, however if the wig is more recent and has been glued with a stronger glue it will take some more serious action. If someone has gorilla glued the wig down, you may need to peel it off with a razor.
@@CarolsCurrentObsession I just tried it with a 1950s Ginny doll with alcohol wipes on 70 year old glue, and managed to get it off. I was worried about damaging the plastic, but so far it seems to be okay. It wasn't going to come off without some kind of chemical help. Thank you for your response! I enjoy your videos about dolls!
@@suzannebeinart4359 I've never tried alcohol wipes! Would you be willing to come back a few weeks later and say whether it discolored or damaged the plastic? If it works well, then that will save hundreds of vintage doll restoring folks much grief and thousands of hours! 🥰😊🥰😊🥰
@@CarolsCurrentObsession Sure can ! So far so good, but it's only been less than a day!
@@CarolsCurrentObsession It's now April16th and nothing bad has happened to the plastic heads of my old Ginny dolls, so I am going to keep using the alcohol wipes to get rid of the old wig glue!
What about the arms? Usually the head arms and legs are all hooked together.
Oh yeah, I did another stringing doll video in which I showed the arms. I'm sorry I didn't include it in this one. Basically it's the same idea, only I always prefer stretching the arms band only between the arms, rather than using the same band as the head and legs. One of the reasons for that is that sometimes you want to position the the arms a certain way and you can't because the pressure on the legs and head are off and won't let it stay there. Anyway, so measure a few inches past across the length of the chest, then double it and cut to length. Hook one arm hook through, then feed the ends through that arm arm hole, then hook the other arm hook on one side of the strings, and tie the strings as tight as you possibly can, and then tie the knot again. Shove the ends into the body cavity, and voilá, they are done!
This isn’t a kurhn doll
Amazing review. I just bought my first Paolo Reina, secondhand. I want this AA AliExpress version now.
I think you will be pleasantly surprised, and quite happy with your purchase 😊 I know I was. 😊😊 I'm glad the review was helpful 🥰💞🥰
Great job. I did.'t know to use wood filler ti clean the doll. Great outfit. I like the brown wig better.
Exactly what I did google :D And I also wanted to see it compared to a Barbie, because I guess everyone saw a Barbie doll and can a bit imagine the size :)
😂😂😂 you just found yourself in the weird part of the internet 😂😂 welcome...😬😳😂😂😂
@@CarolsCurrentObsession Well, I was always in the weird corners ;)
Isn't that a Sweet Sue "hard plastic" doll, not a composition doll?
I've answered this on several other comments, and I too am surprised about the nature of this doll ~ however ~ no, it's not hard plastic, it truly is compo. I do have another Sweet Sue that is the same size and she IS a hard plastic, and I did a video on her and show these 2 dolls together as well. Even the coloring is different, as would be obvious between a hard plastic and compo doll. But how do I know for sure that she is compo? A couple of things ~ she has crazing, which is not to be found on a hard plastic doll, she knocks or sounds like a compo doll, and, most importantly ~ if you look at the inside of her limbs, you can clearly SEE that she is compo. I don't know what the back story is on her, or where she originated, but my best guess is that she was a transition doll or a prototype doll. And there you have it. A weird one off? Maybe.... I haven't ever seen another compo Sweet Sue in her size. I do have several 18" and 14" Sweet Sue's that are compo as well as hard plastic ones, but this 24" is the only compo one I've ever come across.
This is such a cute video. I'm guessing from your accent you're from Utah or Idaho? You are delightful!
🤔👌🏻🤣🤣 you guessed it, idaho indeed 🤣 you must either be from this area or have known folks from this area, lol, Idaho is not really well known. Well..Well... at least, we didn't used to be...lol... people routinely mix us up with Iowa and Ohio, or think we are a city somewhere in California 🤣🤣🤣
thank you this is amazing just ordered some of this cord! thank you husband sometimes they have good ideas haha
I know right? My genius husband sometimes drives me a little crazy, lol, but I have to admit he comes up with some really genius ideas, too! God bless them! 🥰💞🥰
Have you tried magic eraser?
Hey love is there a link. Im looking for one...
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!!
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰😘🥰
I love this doll.I have one.
A cloudy eye on my wife's 1963 vintage "Rosebud" is what concerns me. The left eye is a little foggy compared to the right. I have seen this trouble supposedly cleared elsewhere by placing a paper funnel over the faulty eye and directing warm air from a hair-dryer. Have you any views on this or would you advise sewing machine oil or maybe silicone oil? Many thanks and kind regards from l'il olde England!
wow so cute
🤣Love your sense of humor! I had a great time watching you! I need to get me some boots too! XD XD In need of some man up too!
Hey! Carol, Thank you for the video! These were exactly the bodies I was looking for! thx for the review
Oh my gosh!!!! So sweet!
Are you disengaging the clutch at all? I'm getting the balance wheel key pulled out, but it doesn't change how the needlebar and feed dogs engage. I also can't tell if I'm doing something wrong or my gorgeous Mrs. Thatcher is just acting her age. She was born in 1919. Thanks everyone.
You did an amazing job she's beautiful
Thank you Micki 🥰🥰😘🥰
I just bought the same doll but she has a different dress. Her hair has years of dust and smells. her wig came off when I was trying to clean her up. can I use any wood glue
Sorry meant wood filler lol
I don't know if just any wood filler would work, simply because I have only used the Elmer's. If you are going to experiment, be very careful about it, and test it out in a hidden place, such as the ball joint that fits into the hip, or something. No worries on the wig, there are many many wigs available on ebay that will fit and look great, just be sure to measure her head correctly, and you are golden 🥰🥰 Good luck on your awesome buy, let me know how it goes! 🥰
@@CarolsCurrentObsession thanks, and I’ll stick to what you suggested. Thanks for everything 😊
Great Job! Thank you for the information on removing cloudy eyes on vintage dolls. Wish me luck! I love vintage dolls too! Love the outfits you make.
Thank you so much! Good Luck, 🥰🙂Let me know how it goes! 🥰
Hello! I just discovered your channel and I have been watching your videos for hours, I am sad for not having met you before, I am from Mexico, I love how you make the clothes and accessories for the dolls, I congratulate you for having so much creativity. Please never change you are special for me.
Dear Julieta, thank you so much! Your comment means the world to me 🥰🥰🥰😘🥰💕💞💕 I'm so glad the videos are helpful for you ~ this gives me energy to post more! Thank so much, my friend in Mexico! 💕💞💕🥰😘
@@CarolsCurrentObsession yes! I like them so much, and I will follow your tutorials from now and forever 😘
Beautiful!🌸💙🌸
Were did you buy it
Why did you stop posting videos?😢
Hi Liz 🥰 Thank you so much for caring! 🥰🥰🥰 I've been in and out of several illnesses lately, and we had 3 new grandbabies born this year, one of which I was caring for for a few months while that daughter was finalizing her exit from a job so that she could stay home full time. I do have several new dolls and outfits to show you all, and I even have some of the filming done, but I hadn't been able to find time to finish up and edit and post. It's probably TMI, lol, but I just started a new medication called mounjaro for type 2 diabetes, and hopefully I'll be back into full swing here in a few weeks. I really miss all of you and I'm really looking forward to posting about these new dolls and their costumes, plus I have a few vintage dolls that I have been slowly but surely working on restoring as well, and I can't wait to show those to everyone as well. 🥰 Thank you again for your concern, I truly appreciate it, and I promise I'll get some new videos out very very soon! I hope you have a beautiful week, my friend! 🥰🥰🥰🥰💕🥰
@CarolsCurrentObsession I hope everything works out for you and wish the best for you and your family❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the sewing machine oil tip, I have never heard of it but it worked great!
I have my Saucy Walker doll that I received for Christmas in 1955. Unfortunately, I gave her a hair cut at some time. What size wig did you get for your doll?
