The Adventures of a Doll Doctor in Canada

Your favorite childhood doll or toy has just been found stuffed away in a box in the basement? It is cracked and dirty and your family urges you to throw it out. But it is full of memories and despite its many flaws, you just cannot discard it. Doll doctors and restoration artists can help. Many of the saddest dolls and toys can be restored. I restore dolls from my home base in Ontario. Wintertime however, finds me packing up a few projects and fleeing to Florida to work in the sunshine!

Renard et Souris

Renard is a cloth badger who has arrioved with his friend Souris to be strengthened.

Renard has traveled extensively and his cloth is suffering.

He has had a variety of mending jobs including darning, applied patches and glue.

His basic cotton fabric is thin and is wearing out in several spots.

This is his tail.

Renard gets unstuffed.The plan is to give him a new striped fabric chest and tail, line the rest of his body and tack all his holes to the lining.

Old chest piece.

New chest piece.

Newly strengthened Renard.
