This is my latest addition to Jewels Doll Castle and my newest favorite hobby! I adore rerooting!! I hope you'll
love some of the "girls" I've recreated. Being an absolute purist at heart, I never thought I'd do this. But I've had
too many sweet dolls cross my path that had a child go too far with a pair of scissors. I felt compelled to give new
life to some "girls" that would otherwise just beg to be adored again! And what fun!

I only use KatSilk Saran hair & KatSilk Nylon hair for the best results!!
KatSilk is a registered trademark of RestoreDoll.com

I will eventually offer this service, so if you have a request, let me know & I'll send you my price list.

You are more than welcome to ask for the "before" pictures of the girl(s) you're interested in so you can see the
transformation.

Ideal Suntan Tuesday Taylor
Cognac/Mahogany Saran Reroot

Get ready to be blown away! This child is off the charts! If you're
looking to shake up your Tuesday collection with a splash of red
hair, then I've got your girl! The cognac color is a little lighter
than it pictured. It is beautiful. The mahogany is a very rich
color. I love this combo and this is the first time I'm offering
one for sale. And her head still swivels properly! So you can
change her from Mahogany to the Cognac red as much as you'd
like!  The doll is all original otherwise. Great face & body!
Lashes look nice! All fingers and toes are excellent. Both knees
click & hold 3 positions each. Her dress is the gold lame` gown
from the Stashine Collection. It is not a mint dress but an
excellent display. I pictured a slightly rubbed spot on the front.
The dress has a few rubbed spots. The waist/bodice looks wide
and there is some fraying to the gold ties behind the neck but
still looks incredibly shiny and pretty on display! Tuesday is
wearing her original white shoes in good shape, but they do
have a couple pink spots on them. Still very good shoes. $70
Ideal Tiffany Taylor
Partial Titian Reroot (Brunette side is original)

This girl had a gorgeous head of hair originally. Broke my heart
to cut away what was left of her blonde hair. She had had a
severe cut on the blonde side to make bangs but there was no
saving it! So I decided she was an ideal (pardon the pun)
candidate for being a redhead. And it came out beautiful! Her
brunette side is all original (remember, I'm a purist at heart)
and I wanted to leave that alone as it was in wonderful shape
and full! The titian side is rerooted with nylon hair to best
match the brunette's texture. It's nice and very full and I gave
her curls to spice it up a little. Her face is all original and very
high color! She has all of her lashes but the left eye lashes can
actually try to sneak in the head a little. I've been very careful
handling her to not lose them inside the head. She displays
fine. I just want you to be aware to not push on them! They pull
right out into the proper position (I have 2 that can do the
same thing, so it's not unheard of). Excellent body, but the left
had has a scuff/scratch mark on the index finger and the
middle finger has a prick on it. Faded looking green spot on
the right arm not far from the inner elbow. All toes are fine.
Legs look nice. Bodysuit has a wear mark on the lower front
left and some wear by the left breast area. Otherwise it's good.
The skirt is pretty nice and vivid. A few wrinkles but looks
pretty good. The loops are original so it stays on the bodysuit
securely. Shoes are very nice with no stains! Tiffany does have a
headband that I created for her, so she'll arrive wearing this to
keep her hair from flying around in shipment. It is not original
but does a great job. S
OLD
OOAK Live Action PJ
Excellent/Near Mint Condition
Ok, this kid is gonna kill me when I have to pack her up & ship
her! I'm in love!! She's a brunette now thanks to a child cutting
her original hair short. I gave her her original style with the tiny
braids and brown versions of the glass beads for the braids!  
Thankfully, that is all that happened to her in her youth. The
face is all original with beautiful makeup. Her face is not
tanned, yellowed or dark. My camera made her look a hair
darker than she is. Her complexion is a clean bright peachy
pink!! No earring holes or attempts. Gorgeous straight
eyelashes! The body is very nice. Knees bend 2 and 3 positions &
elbows bend too. Toes do point but like so many, they won't
stay pointed. They ease back to the flexed position. All fingers
& toes are nice. She's not cut, chewed, pricked or abused. She
does have a gentle lean on the right leg from standing in a doll
case for a while, but displays nicely. No green ear or stains. And
PJ will come as you see her dressed in "Firelights" #1481 from
1969-70. It is in excellent condition. The right strap has been
replaced back in the seam. It seems to be in place pretty well
and there is a dark spot on the inside of the suit from the
repair. But you cannot see that on the outside at all
(thankfully!). So I do advise to take on and off a doll carefully.
No blown seams! It's bright and clean. The 2 hook & thread
closures are intact & in good shape. She has only the 1 at the
waist closed while she's in my care (don't wanna split the top
loop thread). She is wearing Skipper flats since her feet won't fit
open toe or pilgrim shoes. They are a modern pair and are
genuine Mattel. PJ is a beautiful girl & will be a wonderful
addition to your collection! currently listed on ebay. If you are
interested in a buy it now price, feel free to contact me directly!
OOAK Malibu Barbie
Excellent Condition
This is a one of a kind Malibu Barbie professionally rerooted by me in
Hazelnut brown. It was a perfect match for her original in great
shape. She is marked Made in Korea on the rear. She is in great shape.
She is marked Made in Korea on the rear. She is not a Sunset Malibu
but a later edition from the early 70's. She technically should have
the red swimsuit but since one was not immediately available, I gave
her a blue suit with the yellow towel. The suit is in good condition.
Not mint. A front lower leg seam has loosened up, a few snags and 1
restitch area on the back (not done by me). Still very nice blue color.
Most are much paler. This is a slightly darker version. The towel is
very nice. The fringe is curly but all there. A little handling time but
overall good. Barbie's body is in great shape. All fingers & toes are
great. Knees click and hold 2 positions each. No pinpricks or chews.
Body looks very nice! Barbie's makeup is perfect. No rubs or
retouches. 2 super microscopic specks on her forehead (from the
factory). The main flaw on her face as you can see better in the lower
left corner picture is a greenish/blue spot right by the edge of her
lower left lip. I debated on whether or not to try & paint a little bit of
a wider lip to conceal it but I like to keep things as original as
possible unless direly needed. So if anyone is interested in this girl
and would be interested in a retouch for the lip, I'll gladly do it. But
for now, I'm leaving her as is. It's very small. And the hazelnut color
brings something out in her, that I was really impressed with. She's
beautiful in person! $40
