Fixing up a baby doll !

The other day I was looking through my old baby doll stuff to see what I could use for my dolls  and I found this baby  doll in pretty bad shape .


This baby doll was my cousin's and then my sister's and now mine  which means he has played with a lot three times and that is why he is so  "destroyed".When I say him I felt so bad for him so I dicided to fix him up .

He had lots of spots and marks and he was estremely dirty here are some pictures : 


Then I took him to the bathroom to get him cleaned up . 
Here is what I used : 

 












First I cleaned him up with soap and a brush . 

Since he was still dirty I used baking soda and Q tips. 













 Here is a picture of him with tissue paper on his eyes to prevent them from geting wet :)

 He was so dirty that my Q tips became black !

Once he was clean I tryed nail polish remover to remove the paint spots .If you do this use non acetone nail polish or it will damage your doll skin .

Here are the pictures of after I cleaned him .All the stains left exept two  which were ink stains.




So here he is all cleaned up !

 Check out my video on my Youtube channel to see the cleaning process. 
I dicided tyo keep this baby in my doll family ( as the only boy in the household!), But I don't have a name for him yet ! I am thinking between Gale , Sam , Leo or Liam . Tell me what you think !
