I sent the restringing tips to my husband because I have a molly who wiggles like crazy (although she still stands if you balance her just right) and he said two things "The tools are really expensive, but I'd love an excuse to buy them" and "I'd be to scared I wouldn't be able to get the doll back together."
If figured he'd be jumping at the chance to take a doll apart, but it looks like molly will be loose legs [img]wink.gif[/img] for years to come.

Great thread.
As far as cheeks...I have two tips. One is just plain old blush. Put some on your finger or a piece of cotton knit material, and rub it on. Less is more, as you can keep adding. I am to the point where I just put a bit of my Bare Esscentuals blush on my blush brush, and blush away.
Another thing you can use is a red beezwax crayon. Just rub it onto a piece of knit cloth, then carefully rub it on the doll's cheek. If you get too much, just wipe some of if off with a clean piece of knit cloth. I actually prefer this method, but haven't had a red beezwax crayon for a while!
Edited to say that I use micromesh as well. It's great stuff. Just go easy, as you can keep working on it until you get the results you want.
Editing again, because I can't spell.
