Hello doll lovers!! I did more doll makeovers this week!! Wow! Two weeks in a row, it is a record for sure. Today I worked on the barbie fashionista #54 with light purple hair. I got her in a lot of dolls off of ebay and they were pretty dirty but that is half the fun making them pretty again.
As always I started off by washing her body with dish soap, baking soda and a toothbrush. Then I washed her hair with dish soap, conditioned it, let that set for 10 min. Then I combed through it and let her air dry (I should have boil washed her cause of the indent from the hair tie that was in her hair, I regret that and will do that before she is displayed).
I got lucky and she was still wearing her original outfit, shoes and necklace. I was super happy about that because I really like my fashionistas (well any doll really) to have their original outfit and shoes if it is possible. Of course when buy used dolls you run the risk of them not having the right clothes (or clothes at all).
