39” doll review (clothes sizes, body review)

[@CherishedDollFriends]

You two are so cute. The hole in the doll’s head is similar to how the antique bisque doll heads are. They cover it with a thin piece of cork called a pate and then the wig fits over top. Rachel Hoffman from Virtual doll convention has some good videos demonstrating how these antique dolls are made. Maybe you could do something similar. Pretty doll. I can’t wait to see her new wig!

[@beaedens285]

I laughed so hard I cried when your Mom put the flowers in the doll’s head. LOL 😊😊 PS. The only suggestion I could come up with for covering the hole would be to measure the circumference and then go to the store and see if you could find a plastic Rubbermaid-like container lid about the same size, or one that you could easily cut to fit, and glue it on the top of the head. 😊

[@dollhappy2449]

Thanks so much!! My mom kinda did that….you’ll see when I post the fixed-doll vid this week……she had some plastic type of material at home. 💕

[@beaedens285]

@@dollhappy2449 Good! I’ll look forward to watching it!

[@mjstewart7652]

Thank you, Bea for your great suggestion! What a great idea! Thank you!! (“Mom” in the video.)🤗

i love her , i have masterpiece doll , i just wanted to let you know the reason for the whole in her head is to help with her ball joints these dolls have string for their joints so you can tighten them as they do losen over time :)

[@dollhappy2449]

Oh my goodness!!! Thank you SO MUCH!! We had no idea! My mom wants to tighten her dolls arms….we will search for a vid to tell us how to do this! You are a lifesaver! Thanks again!! 😍🥰🤗🤗🤗🤗

Good evening ladies! I love you ladies charm, humor, and opinions!! I'm soo sorry about London's imperfections and I can't think of anything that would help seal her crown. No, not the sloth or flower lol! Maybe ask Jack and Jill? Lol Seriously, it's a shame how they can get away with not making some dolls correctly. Poor adorable London. She's a huge size dolly! It must be exciting dressing her up! How often do you change her clothes? Stay blessed and I hope y'all find a perfect solution to fix London's brain lol!😇😘🥰💖❤️

[@LindaKirker]

you could 3d print a small dome and put it on the angles head. Hope this helps

ROFL!!! Dubbing Mom with a new name of 'Missy Hot Bottom'! This was another GREAT review, especially covering this bigger doll. YES! That wig is beyond disgusting. i'm wondering if those doll heads move along a conveyor belt with that huge hole on the top? Maybe in order to attach it to the body? Who knows. As for that hole in the head, wow, that IS huge! i went on the hunt for information and nothing was coming up on both the internet nor YT. i'll keep searching. There are doll repair videos/sites that i will check out for you...but knowing both of you, you'll want answers like yesterday because you'll want to finish this project asap! lol! i did ask the question to a couple of repair ladies so hopefully that will get back with me. There is also a YT channel called The Broken Doll who might answer? Hey, i don't have any patience anymore so knowing me, i would do as Missy Hot Bottom mentioned of filling the head with stuffing...but then i would slap on some duct tape and call it a day. LOL!!! i figure the 'hole' would be hidden by the new wig anyway. As always, thank you for giving the sizes! i find it amazing this doll can wear 4T pants yet also wear a 24 month onesie! i'm the same way with wanting my dolls to be dressed for the weather. LOVED seeing Pippin!!! i swear she's a Pom! Ok, putting the sloth in the head cracked me up...reminded me of the head vases from back in the day when adding the flowers. Let me add, too, that your Mom's hair is beautiful! And the Jim Carey look-alike hair, OMG! Talk about LOL! Anyway, this ol' lady needs to head for bed. Thanks again for another lovely informative video AND comedy act! Love & {{Hugs}} to you both!

[@dollhappy2449]

We love u Darla! Thanks so very much for trying so hard to help us with the big hole! Lol! She HAS fixed it…..and we will be uploading the vid on it very soon. Lol! Talk about funny! YOU crack us up!! Fill it with stuffing and slap some duct tape on it! Lol! She KINDA sorta did that……we stuffed it as much as we possibly could….then she had some nice soft, thick, plastic stuff hanging around the house and she used that. But now the doll has a soft spot,……we should’ve done what one of our subscribers said to do no use playdoe or something….who thing that would harden. Anyway, the wig covers it and it’s working. 🥰

[@mjstewart7652]

Oh Darla Mae!!!LOL on “Missy Hot Bottom”! LOL! I really got a good laugh out of that! At my age, I don’t think there’s anything hot from head to toe. Thanks for all your research too! You’re absolutely correct….I do tend to want to finish projects “right now!” …..except for cleaning out closets…..lol! 😍🥰🤗💜

[@karenroberts2505]

I busted out laughing when I saw the stuff animal in her head. Just love you guys. You make my day. I hope I can get the time to do some videos as I have quite a collection of dolls. Hugs to you both. Karen

[@kathleenglumpe8554]

These dolls are like Master piece dolls ,which you can't find anymore.

[@dollhappy2449]

That’s good that we have her then! 💕

[@mjstewart7652]

Do you know why the Masterpiece dolls are no longer made? It seems as if a lot of people would be interested in them…I’m very happy to have this doll, even with all her “issues.” 🙃🥰

[@LuckyDucky312]

You ladies are so funny!! I had to really laugh at the sloth in her head!! Lol

[@shirleyann5420]

Some antique dolls have heads made like that. I think it had something to do with their open and close eyes

[@dollhappy2449]

That’s true…..my mom has some from the 50s like that. We just thought maybe they stopped doing that…..but who knows?

[@victoriaboerschinger2891]

So sorry poor London was made rather cheaply. Hopefully you are able to find a away to fix her. I enjoy learning about dolls through your channel.

[@dollhappy2449]

Thanks! My mom fixed her…..I’ll post that short vid soon……but I actually might just wait till she puts the new wig on her and upload all that together in one vid.

[@lisanull900]

Measure the hole, then go to bountiful baby & order a plug nearest the size. A plug should give you some room in order to glue it well into place. That was the first thing that popped into my head. I wonder if the hold is an actual defect.......they covered it with cardboard to sell the doll anyway figuring no one would remove the wig. OH, can you do a How To video when you do her wig plz? !! I'd love to see how it's done.

[@mjstewart7652]

Thank you so much for the idea! RATS! I’d already finished the wig fix when I read your great suggestion. I will remember your idea if the “hole in the head “ issue ever comes up again. Oh, BTW I’m “Mom” in the video. Thank you again!🤗💜

[@dollhappy2449]

I’m getting a doll that’s different from my moms, but the same size……may even have the same problems….so if that’s the case, we will do a vid on her wig change. I am so happy u told us about the plug! I didn’t know such a thing existed! Thanks!

[@lisanull900]

@@dollhappy2449 The plugs are to make reborn limbs easier to move, but if you can find one to fit the hole, I'd think it might work & be more stable for the glue. I'd also suggest water proof glue just in case you should ever need to wash the dolls hair in future.

[@dollhappy2449]

Silicon ,make a mold and glue it on. Get u some paint ,format the color or her and it will be the color of or .

I have this doll to but id never take the hair wig off. But if you want a round plastic peice ive taken porcelain dolls apart before and they have those peices try ebay for those parts.

[@MothersLovingArmsNursery]

many doll kit sellers sell pieces of vinyl for practice, they even have practice heads so maybe order a practice head or talk to the seller and ask for the size of vinyl the hole is? Just a suggestion. Have a nice weekend.

Please I just saw this video. Can you please tell me what size is the new wig????thank you

[@Willow_Harrison_loves_pillows]

Maybe you can use some clay or playdough and shape it smooth to close up the hole.

[@dollhappy2449]

Thank u! That’s a good idea!! We will post a vid of when she’s fixed! ❤️
