Do you do OOAK or doll repairs? #DollChat #OOAK

I’ve been going through my closet, finding things I never seem to have time to work on, and putting them up for sale in my eBay store. I’ve sold several NIB dolls over the past year, some doll shoes, and a number of accessories.

But over the weekend I listed all the goodies I had in my OOAK/doll repair rubber tub. (The tub is not for sale.)

Since I know at least some of you do doll repairs, I thought I’d give you early notice that this stuff is for sale in my eBay store. It even includes two Obitsu doll bodies, which are close to brand new. Each of those is worth $15 or more.

But I’m selling this whole lot for less than $25 (or best offer). So grab it while you can! There’s quite a treasure trove here. Click on the links I’ve provided, to find the listing.

Top left and top center show dolls’ heads on sticks of various kind. On the left, the heads on sticks are projecting from a Mason jar. In the center, we see these dolls from above, and one has her hair in makeshift rollers. Top right shows this doll in close-up, and her head is stuck atop an ordinary ball-point pen. Her “rollers” are made of pink straws tied together with the paper-covered wire twisty ties that are used to seal vegetable bags at grocery stores or trash bags. Bottom row shows a woman’s hand holding the pink paper straws, all cut into small sizes for use as Barbie doll curlers or rollers. She also holds some of these paper-covered wires. — Please visit ChellyWood.com for free printable sewing patterns for making doll clothes to fit dolls of many shapes and all different sizes.

Over the years, I’ve done lots of doll repairs, but now that my two daughters have grown up and moved away, I find myself leaning more toward sewing than doll repair.

I think my girls were the biggest advocates for doll repair and OOAK designs (one of a kind designs). So I’ve been left with a big closet full of doll repair odds and ends, half-finished OOAK projects, and miscellaneous doll body parts.

It’s time to clear all that stuff away to make room for other things in my storage areas.

The photo shows Chelly Wood's sewing room (sewing space) in total disrepair, with fabric and patterns and boxes spread all over the floor, the roll-away bed (sofa), and all the open cupboard space -- every flat surface in the room. — Please visit ChellyWood.com for free printable PDF sewing patterns and tutorial videos for making doll clothes to fit dolls of many shapes and all different sizes.

As I type this, I’m sitting in my messy craft room, trying to gather up the things I just don’t use anymore and send them out the door, one way or another. So please! Check out what I have for sale in my eBay store.

If you’re thinking, “She’s asking too much for that,” just make me an offer! If nobody buys this stuff, it will either go to a second hand store, or it will get thrown away.
