To test to see if your doll needs to be restrung,
place it on its back and tilt the limbs up at a 45° angle. If the limbs
move after you remove your hands (i.e. sliding down to the floor), then the
elastic has stretched out and needs to be restrung.
Dolls which are properly strung should be able to
stand upright on a flat surface on the first try without aid.
ITEM SPECIFICATIONS:
1 YARD OF COTTON COVERED ELASTIC CORD
Cord is the correct size for stringing 18" dolls, such as American Girl Dolls®
This auction provides NO
INSTRUCTION, simply the elastic cord you need to restring an 18” vinyl
doll with individual elastic joints, such as those had by all 18" American
Girl® dolls.
This auction is to resupply customers who
have bought our original Rejuvenation Kit or already know how to restring a
doll.
If you need instruction on how to
restring and restore your doll, purchase the original Rejuvenation Kit, since
it contains a DVD with detailed pictures, videos, and instructions. Search eBay
for “Rejuvenation Kit” or click on the “See Other Items” link on the top right.
SAVE TIME AND MONEY!
Sending your doll to one of the many
doll repair shops or hospitals can cost upwards of $50, plus take weeks in
shipping and repair time.
Buying the appropriate metal fasteners
from a hardware store is expensive and time-consuming, and the proper sized
elastic cord can only be found in bulk at certain places. It can quite
difficult to locate these items, and they can cost quite a bundle!
The professionals at BAVAS
International have fixed this problem – we have gone to a distributor who
produces the fastenings for a much reduced price. We then buy the cord in bulk
and cut it at the proper length.
This means that you save a lot of time
and money buying exactly what you need from us rather than wasting time and
money elsewhere.
Our items are manufactured and produced
independently. All trademarks and copyrights belong to their respective
companies.
