    Never saw that pencil trick before! I have no antiques, but I have a Bye Lo babie from the 70's. Her body was destroyed when I had a whole in the roof and it rained on her. You did a wonderful job!

      So sorry about your Bye-lo's body. If you still have the head, maybe you will find a replacement one day? 🤞 Thanks for watching! 💕

    I still have my Kader baby doll, her name is Betty and she is 55 years old! I love looking at these old dolls, just thinking about a little girl 100 years ago getting one for Christmas or Birthday and all the joy and excitement they would have had opening and playing her with them.

      I just looked up Kader dolls. Omg, so cute with a litte tuft of hair?! I'm so glad you still have Betty. 🩷 And I imagine the same...the child playing with the doll. So nice when we can preserve a little of that history. Thank you! 💕

      Aren't they the sweetest! I need to watch your videos to see what paint to use on her hands. I usually just mix acrylics, but yours looks better!

    I agree with you that seeing the age on the dolls is so fascinating! The few that I have restored, I have left most elements of the doll as original as possible, even if it looks really old. I’m glad your doll was shipped safely. 🙏🥰 Your dream baby head turned out really nice. I still have my baby doll from childhood. She is a vinyl doll with cloth body and baby blue sleep eyes. I got her when I was 10 so I have had her for 50 years!❤

      Ok, first I just have to say I can't believe your age, you look amazing! You should do a video on your beauty secrets! And second, I love that you still have your baby doll! That is the sweetest!! ❤️

    Awe, I found your channel trying to find a tutorial on how I could restore my Bye-lo baby. She was given to me from a friend who was cleaning out her cellar. She was a reproduction baby from the 90's, so not that old, but her face is now broken. I almost have all the pieces, but I have no idea how to restore bisque. Hoping I might find a little helpful video in your collection. I did try to find a replacement head on ebay and ended up buying two more bye lo babies cause they are just too cute! No luck in finding a spare head yet. Thanks for the video. I am really enjoying your restorations.

      Hi! Such a great question! I need to do a video and experiment with porcelain repair! I've actually only tried repairing one truly shattered bisque doll. I carefully used superglue to glue the pieces back. And then I filled in tiny cracks with a mix of white glue, cornstarch and plaster and delicately repainted those areas. But I'm sure there are professiinal antique restoration folks out there who have years of experience. If you are definitely going DIY, you might want to practice on a cheap porcelain doll from a thrift store first? Hope this helped. Good luck! Keep me posted!🤞💕
