Her face was super dirty, so I used a magic eraser to get it off. It also took off the face paint. Whoops. I will try and work up the courage to repaint her! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162094116089514083.post-65658794629316023202014-06-04T10:24:28.174-05:002014-06-04T10:24:28.174-05:00Thank you :)Thank you :)MCooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09786051432479756282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162094116089514083.post-6318451687582819302014-06-04T01:45:23.089-05:002014-06-04T01:45:23.089-05:00She looks amazing!

I'm really lucky in that she has not even a trace of silver eye! So I guess I'm just working up the courage to try LOL!MCooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09786051432479756282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162094116089514083.post-44206349250143402492014-04-04T21:27:55.914-05:002014-04-04T21:27:55.914-05:00I was just thinking, but if you hadn't thought...I was just thinking, but if you hadn't thought of it yet, you might be able to make Molly's head go back to normal by pouring hot water in. For a lot of plastic things, I found that they seem to remember their original shape, and if you use hot water, you can often get them to come back to normal. You might be able to use it for her odd leg too if you still have that around. One of my dolls came with an accessory that got chewed up, and I put it in hot water, and most of the teeth mark disappearedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162094116089514083.post-90753268006255182852013-09-04T23:05:57.189-05:002013-09-04T23:05:57.189-05:00Thank you!

I'm pretty happy with her! Her lips...Thank you! I'm pretty happy with her! Her lips were so scary! Luckily the paint I used just comes right off with a wet towel so if you mess up it's not a big deal. I mixed and tried paint on her for a long time before I was satisfied!<br /><br />Congrats on the Chrissa! That's an awesome deal! <br /><br />Someday I'll have to do a disturbing behind the scenes post. You can really see the flattened side of her head with her wig off. My idea is to soften her head and then kind of suspend it with the flattened side down and put marbles in it. I have no idea if it will work! The reason I don't want to try it is that you have to use boiling water to soften the head enough and I'm worried about exposing her eyes to that much heat! <br /><br />Good luck with your Chrissa!

DD got a Chrissa on eBay that is our new fixer upper project. She had nail polish on her lips and when we removed the polish it also took off the original color. I'm already dreading the repainting part! She was only $12 plus shipping so I figure if we really make a mess we can afford to send her off to AG for a new head if it comes to that. ;) Molly's hair looks great too, and honestly I don't notice her face much. I know you didn't do anything to it so maybe it's just that she looks so much prettier all around so anything else isn't noticeable. I'm curious what your idea is for fixing it if you ever decide to try.
