ChellyWood.com shows you how to care for those precious vintage dolls, and more

If you like to get crafty, maybe want to make something creative with the kids, and especially if you've ever made your own clothing for vintage dolls like some of the ones you've seen on BRBTV's Terrific TV Toys series, then you've got to check out ChellyWood.com. It's where you can find free patterns for clothes to make for dolls of the standard 11-inch variety like Barbie, 8-inch, even 18-inch and more. Pretty much any size doll you've got, you can find a clothing pattern for it.

Chelly Wood did a blog post this week discussing the fact that leaving your doll dressed in her clothes can actually stain her body over time, and as an example of this, she cited our own Dusty doll example from the T3 episode of a few years ago. This author's poor Dusty has expelled some chemicals in her joints, so to speak, over time, and for a while her lovely white slacks were cemented onto her. It happens! Chelly Wood talks about that and more. Thanks for the link-up, Chelly Wood!
