Hello doll lovers!! Did a few makeovers a week or so ago and this girl was one of the chosen. She is the 1963 (?) bend knee skipper doll, I got her at a yard sale for .50. She was in a box of random toys and they guy said I could have her but I told him I wanted to pay him something. She has her original outfit but it is in rough shape. I did hand wash the outfit and got her cleaned up too, I have a skipper already but she is the straight leg so I am going to keep this girl in my collection too.
Like I always do I started off by washing her body with dish soap, baking soda and a toothbrush. I also used a magic eraser on her legs (they had black spots on them). I then washed her hair and conditioned it and let is set a bit. Then I combed through it rinsed it and let her set over night to dry. I also hand washed her outfit and let it dry over night as well. Her hair still has some places that want to stand up but she still turned out really good especially for her age.
