Thrift store toy rehab

I have been watching your progress--fascinating!!  What type of paint did you use and does it come off with washing or rubbing? Or do you use inks?

I have been using acrylic paints I bought at wal-mart. For the black I took a marks-a-lot marker and let it soak into my sponge brush then dabbed it on. All the red you see is a sharpie marker that the pint has been cut so it is flat and jagged.
I just put her head back on her body by running a zip tie through the seam that was already there in her neck then cenching it up real tight.
I will keep you posted on the clothes (I am brain storming over them right now)
Thanks for taking an interest. My hubby thinks I should sell the dolls I make on e-bay

Well the one swap that I was organizing is wrapping up now so I want to bring this idea back up front again and see if we still have people interested.
If so I am thinking of starting sign ups soon and then assign partners towards the end of the month and have us send near the end of August.
Any takers?

OK I am going to start sign ups for this swap on 8-1
Does anyone have any certain times that need to be worked into this swap?
