Oh my goodness, you did a great job cleaning and touching her up. The added color to her cheeks and lips is perfect. So pretty!!! Thank you for sharing the process.

She looks amazing! She went from looking scary to looking alive. Adorable. Great job!

Although I am not myself involved in doll restoration or creation, I appreciate the artistry, skill and techniques taught here. Sharon, your tutorial style reminds me of Bob Ross: enjoyably serene, pleasant, fun, educational. You make it easy for a novice to this art form to understand the steps involved, and then to give it a try for themselves! Plus, with your pioneering use of acrylic on plastic, you have forged an easier and a less expensive medium for others to copy. If there was a star rating system for your tutorial I would award it 5 stars out of 5!!

Hi Sharon. So nice to see you again. I truly hope you are doing well. I have exactly the same doll & I took her off that body & changed her eyes. My dolls eyes were gold! Anyway if you want to change her body you can order plugs. I got mine at MacPhersons, but I’m in Canada. Then you glue the plugs in the limbs with E600 & you leave a bit out & this will give you the ridge you need for the zip ties. Hope that helps 😊

It’s wonderful seeing/hearing you tonight ❤❤❤ She’s adorable 🧸🍼🧸🍼🧸

Hi Sharon. What a cute baby doll.

I can't believe how great you made her look now! Especially the shag hair style which totally fits with the era in which she was made! I just got done reborning a baby and some of the matte got shiny in a few places. I took a dull thin emery board and sanded the shine off and it didn't hurt the paint or finish at all! Just a tip in case you ever reborn again and that happens to you!! Totally enjoyed this video, Sharon!🙂🦋🌞🌸

You did a fabulous job on her. She looks adorable. 💞

Hi Sharon 💟🙋🏼‍♀️💜, What a lovely job have you done on this vintage Dolly from 1984‼️🩷👶🏻💕 She became absolutely adorable❗👍🏻👣😃 It was very nice to watch the whole 'reborning' process from the beginning to the end❣️🤗❤️ I'm also very glad to see you here on You Tube again. I'm curious about the name you've in mind‼️🥰 Wishing you a very blessed day🙏🏻💞. With love 😘, Annette

My favorite part of this video was the hair washing part. I watched it a few times. Great ASMR for me.

Some vinyl discolors to that orange color and the lips loose their color. You find the same with some Barbie dolls from the same time period. I find you did real well, she looks much closer to what she would have looked like new. I thought she looked familiar. My oldest daughter had a doll like this. Yes she came from Spain, we got her in Germany.

Sharon: this doll was made in 1984. Remember, this doll is 40 years. Me: I’m doing everything I can to forget the fact that 1984 is 40 years ago. 😬 ❤❤❤
