| June Bug is seen in a photo from 2010. |
After removing June Bug from her display shelf this past summer, I noticed her limbs were floppy. She needed to be restrung. I took her to my husband for said repair. The following two videos cover the repair request.

June Bug's shoes were deteriorating and her white tights were dingy. The following video explains the remedies.
The first restringing resulted in tautness in both legs. My husband decided to loosen those strings and fabricate new arm strings because the arms were still loose. It took a while for him to accomplish this because a more pertinent home improvement project required several weeks of his undivided attention.
Restringing Completed!

| All good again, almost. |
After her dad completed the restringing, he brought her to me along with the extra elasticized string. I was lying in bed at the time and took the above quick photo to document her return.

She is so cute!! I love that you put the doll with her. Thank goodness your husband can restring these dolls for you. Hope to see some fun dolly stuff in your Christmas haul. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Michelle! I love her. I really appreciate my husband's ability to fix or repair almost anything around the house and in my collection :-) . If he doesn't know how, he'll research the problem until he finds the answer that will solve the issue. I thank God for a "thinking" man.
