Hello,

I am new to this board and wanted to first say hello to all of you out there. This seems like a really friendly, informative place!

I am just in love with American Girl dolls! I buy and sell and it has become a total obsession! My house is full of them and I can't get my hands on enough of them. I especially adore Felicity and the wonderful accessories for the dolls.

I recently acquired a large lot of bitty baby items. I have no experience with these dolls but am quickly learning to love them as well. I wanted to ask if anyone had any tips on cleaning the dolls? Would soft scrub with bleach take out the color? I have used these on Barbie's and have gotten excellent results. Also AG recommends a solution of water and fabric softener for frizzy hair but have any of you had better results with any other methods?

Thanks and I look forward to reading your replies.

Brenda
