They've been languishing in dusty bins for decades, but I'll share my best tips and tricks for cleaning them up to look new again! In this video, I'll show you how to wash and dry these older dolls safely, remove dirt and stains, and best practices for cleaning clothes, accessories, and shoes. 🔴 PLEASE SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@AbbysRetroRescue?sub_confirmation=1 ▶️ WATCH NEXT - Cabbage Patch Unboxing: https://youtu.be/gk535In0zss 🛍️ SHOP ETSY: https://www.etsy.com/shop/abbysretrorescue 📺 Check out my other channels: Our Gen X Life https://www.youtube.com/@OurGenXLife Your Life On Tape https://www.youtube.com/@YourLifeOnTape 🎙 LISTEN to our podcast: https://www.ourgenxlife.com/podcast 😊 Say HELLO on my socials!
