My mother use to keep her dolls clean with butter and she would rub them down until they shined. Sadly, all her dolls are gone and I had to start my own collection. If the cut is deep, you can use a little wood filler and touch the area up with matching acrylic paint. I do, however, like the idea of pastel colors to do light restoration.
This helps to mask cracks but doesn't prevent from further cracking
Thank you I have a doll that has a crack in its face and this really does work and helped
Just found your channel. This video was awesome. I was gifted a very old comp doll and now at least I know what kind it is which is a start thanks to this video. ❤
Great process really worked amazingly well for me in a couple of restoration projects.
Oh my! I just bought a papier mache doll from 1830. She has a great deal of cracks and problems. I am going to try this method on the BACK bottom of her shoulder plate as a test. Thanks for the tip!
Very useful! Thank you.
How can you use a liquid cleanser without rinsing. Won't it get sticky. The doll i have is severely crazed. I was wondering if a thin layer of resin would be ok to use. I'm not interested in restoring, im not selling it. I just want to keep it from falling apart.
I have a new Effanbee doll. She will be my first attempt to follow your instructions!
It would be really nice to know what she means by “household cleaner.” It would likely be a liquid right?
How is that better than water?
I went to another video and someone was using a product called "Go Jo" which is a hand cleaner, I hope this information helps.
Denise Russell she said , "household cleanser, she talked about abrasives, not liquid.
if its that badly cracked i just repaint them, sand it smooth or just remove the paint completely (depending if paint is lead if its lead i just chip everything away)
Great advice, Thank you.
Thank you! Does it matter what brand of oil pastels and household cleaners that are used?
It should not. Just something good quality and gentle.
Ruby Lane I recently used this technique and it worked amazingly.
Oil pastels never completely dry, so I'm wondering if dust adhering to the patched lines is an issue
Don’t we have to worry about lead contamination with chipping paint on pre70’s dolls, and especially the really old ones from the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s? What kind of household cleaner is she using?
Ok idea but that wont stay put and rub off. Is there some sort of sealer that you can spray on the
face that will keep the skin looking smooth without the cracks reappering over time??
What kind of oil? Do you seal it?
i sand them down and repaint them takes longer to fax as i rebuild some of my haunted dolls
I have an old composition doll that has cracking doll eyes. Could you please do a video on how to repair them and paint them? What works the best?
Beautiful outstanding amazing Presentation 😘 😘
Someone recently told me this method is also great for wooden dolls like Schoenhut.
Is that true?
yo tengo una así, que líndas
thank you-I just want my Shirley Temple doll to stay in 1 piece & look as nice as possible-(I have no intention of selling her-so this is just for my own enjoyment)
Great!!
We need help with a k22 doll
My mother was gifted a Peterkins peekaboo display doll when she was a child. Recently shes been gifted to me. Im afraid the cracks are too frequent and severe now for fixing this way. I have her in my room which isnt too hot or cold but now im really worried about further cracking..(you can see the cork under her scalp poor thing)
Do you have one on fixing cracks in stuffed animal's eyes, I dropped my lemonpy and now his eyes are cracked
wow thanks for the video
You are welcome!
Hi I have a new sillicone baby girl a false friend made the. Side of. Her lip have a little tear aherip got red patches come. On. What do. I do and what toi buy to sort this. OUT I live it uk
Does it matter if the cleanser is unscented or not? Stupid question but it’s better to be safe than sorry
They use gojo now
To clean composition dolls
Ruby Lane.... How do you mix the chalk and pastel together??...crush a bit of chalk and mix??
the oil pastels are already the mixed product, you don't need to do anything else.
What kind of household cleaner did you use to clean the doll first? I didn't catch that in the video. Thank you!
You could use diluted Soft Scrub or diluted Simple Green.
Can I use that on my plastic doll??
After warning us not to use water...could you please answer the questions posed on which cleaners to use specifically. I too don't feel confident to take even the first step without the right tools.
We like Soft Scrub.
Thank you, that helps a lot.
I have a dent in the head of a doll. Is there anything I can do?
❤👏
were they Shirley temple dolls
yes, they were.
Where can I purchase the oil pastel sticks ? Thanks
Matt Proctor you can usually buy oil pastels in art stores
Any craft store! Good luck!
Hobby Lobby sells pastel sticks, or any craft store near you.
WHAT household cleaner? there are hundreds! Be specific please.
You could use dilluted Soft Scrub or diluted Simple Green.
@@rubylane don't you have to rinse that off?
Household cleaner,? what does she mean ? bleach ? hard floor cleaner ? window cleaner ? etc etc etc Vagueness does not explain anything.
We like Soft Scrub.
Taylor I like how you assumed that it would be an all purpose and antagonized someone for asking for specifics. You have issues you should look into how to fix em while your looking up how to fix your dolls
Never, ever put dolls in the attic or the basement two areas which will destroy dolls. Try to keep them in a box with tissue in a climate controlled environment. If you have a glass display case, this would be ideal. Never store composition dolls in plastic bins and remember these dolls need lots of care.
