Tina Kewy "Cherish" - my 2nd reborn (EDITED)

 confuse  Please ignore the other post or delete the whole thing  if you know how.  Too many mistakes to make sense.    Anyway, this baby's name is "Isabella"  She has taken me a long time to complete (started last January) mainly because I made so many mistakes.  What I learned:  NEVER put 97% rubbing alcohol on a painted, heat set, baby face-it takes off paint, all of it, in about 2 seconds.  Superior Shine Remover, and Matte Varnish Sealer cannot be applied with a BRUSH and work properly, no matter how many coats you put on.  Never use Elmer's glue inside a partially rooted head because you don't want to loose hair.  It cracks when dry and totally messes everything up when you put on the right glue on, which in Isabella's case, took out about half the rooted hair, twice. I have a new kit and if I live long enough to finish it, I'll post.  Thanks for looking.  Sandy

Isabella is adorable, well worth all the trouble she gave you. Congratulations
on a job well done!!

Thanks for the tip about the alcohol - I had no idea it would remove heat-set
paint. Might be a substitute for acetone to lighten too-dark eyebrows if used
lightly and sparingly. I'll have to try that sometime.

Looking forward to seeing baby number three from you.

Hugs,

Isabella is adorable. :)
And thanks for sharing all your booboo's with the forum. Nice to have that information for future reference. I'm glad she didn't turn out to be a "bin-baby". She's too cute for that.
