She has arrived to be re-strung.
She is a vintage British doll with a hard plastic head and a composition body.
Her arms have their original stringing hooks.....a cool looking metal gizmo that lodges inside the arm.
But, alas, her legs have lost their stringing hooks.
Now I have to invent something as I cannot duplicate those metal gizmos and I do not have a metal fabrication shop down the street.
So this is my creation made from a sawed off nail and some wire. It will get secured across the leg opening with a couple dabs of glue.
The new leg hooks work and Dorothy is back together.
She has also has had some dental work for her loose teeth and got her sparse eyelashes plumped up.
She is ready to go home.
