Some of us have very special dolls that we have
gotten over the years, whether it be from a family
member that has past or a gift from your childhood.
Do you know how to care for them and clean them?
Here are some tips:
Porcelain Dolls:
These dolls usually have some decorations on them,
don't worry you won't hurt them. Use warm soapy water.
Use a wet eraser to remove marks on the face. When
you are displaying your dolls avoid sunlight as time
goes on this will damage them.
Celluloid Dolls:
These dolls are perishable meaning they are easily
breakable and become brittle over time. Avoid heat
with these dolls, and never store in a sealed case-
it will bust.
Cloth Dolls:
My grandmother has alot of these vintage dolls but was
always afraid to clean them. They can be worth thousands
of dollars so I see why. Avoid sunlight at all times
with these dolls. If you notice dust on the cloth, get
a old toothbrush and use on the dress.
These are a few tips to help stay tuned on how to
clean other types of dolls.
