Oh Angie! You are going to have a load of fun fixing her. It was so easy!!!!!

I bought cord elastic. It was on a spool in the same area as the regular elastic just it is a cord just like is on the inside of the doll.

The inserts I used to crimp the cord I checked on a piece of the elastic first so I was sure it would fit through the brass pieces.

Have fun ladies! Taffy did a great job and it worked for me, so I know anyone can do it!!!!!

Go for it!
