At the request of several board users, I'm putting up this thread for people to list their American Girl websites, esp. if they don't have the links in their signatures.

How to spot an AG Clone by Angie of Gillygals.com
AG Clone Identification
This doll restoration tip section courtesy of Anne - Kitschywoman:
If you want eye transplant tips, a good site is...
http://www.prillycharmin.com/restore/1eye_replace.htm
I used those instructions successfully for an eye transplant.
------
There is not a lot of mention on this board about how to remove scrapes and scuffs from vinyl. The best product I've found is called Micro Mesh. It's a flexible, fabric-backed sanding medium that is far finer than ordinary sandpaper. I sand gently with the 1800 grit, followed by the 2400 grit. This will remove the shiny scrape/rub and restore the matte finish to the affected area. I would not recommend using Micro Mesh on painted eyebrows or cheeks, as it will remove the paint. You can find Micro Mesh online or in local hobby shops that cater to modeling enthusiasts.
------
For general cleaning and "goo" removal, I've found nothing that works better than a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It's nothing short of phenomenal.
------
For ink spot or dye mark removal, Oxy 10 acne cream (or any acne cream with 10% benzoyl peroxide) is quite effective if you're patient about it. I apply a dab to the affected area and sit my patient in a sunny window or outdoors, if the weather is nice. Every evening, I remove the cream and I reapply the next morning until the spot is gone. I recently heard that if you can keep the cream from drying out (say by covering it with Saran Wrap), it will bleach the mark out even faster. Do not get Oxy 10 on the fabric body, as it will bleach the color from the fabric.
------
For restringing, I use Taffy's instructions, which can be found at...
http://www.justmagicdolls.com/articl...estringing.htm
------
For rewigging, I use the following instructions, also located at Just Magic...
http://www.justmagicdolls.com/articles/rewig/rewig.htm
I prefer to use E-6000 craft glue to reattach my wigs, as my dolls are around children. I find that Aileen's Tacky Glue has a tendency to "let go" under heavy play. E-6000 glue can be found in Wal-Mart's craft section, and I've yet to find a child who could detach a wig glued using this product.
------
I do lip/teeth repaints using regular 99-cent acrylic paint that can be found at any craft store. The key to getting a smooth finish with no brush strokes is to use acrylic paint extender to thin your paint to a watery consistency. Then I apply several thin coats of paint until I achieve the desired level of color.
------
For cheek repaints, I use stenciling creme (also available at any craft store). I prefer the maroon color, and I put a very, very tiny amount on my fingertip and apply it to the cheeks with my finger. It will not go on evenly, but don't panic. I then dampen a washcloth with non-acetone nailpolish remover to thin and spread the cheek paint until I get the effect I desire. If I don't like it, I completely wipe the paint away with nailpolish remover and start over. Once the stenciling creme has set for a few days, the color is permanent.
I've also heard that lipstick pencil works well for cheek color, but I've never tried this method so I don't know if it has the permanency of stenciling creme.

I have listed in my signature, direct links to my most recent album(s), as well as a link to my profile where all of my public albums are listed.
Hopefully by sometime in January 2007, I will have added a portrait album containing portraits of all of my girls. [img]graemlins/rose.gif[/img]

Hi, everyone. My website is:
Just Magic
It's an informational website (nothing for sale) about 18" vinyl dolls of all types, including American Girl, Magic Attic, Just Pretend and so on. It includes a "Doll Restoration Wizard" with detailed instructions on how to clean vinyl, restore hair, rewig, etc. It also has doll comparisons for 18" dolls of all types so you can see how they compare to American Girl. If you collect Stardust Classics, Carpatina or Magic Attic, there are very complete collector's guides (along the same lines as Meg's/AGPlaythings).
My other website is Maria's Doll House. It is all about my personal doll collection including lots and lots of pictures of my giant doll house for 18" dolls.

Hi everyone,
my pictures are on Webshots, I have several albums and I am presently working on my Colonial Girls album. Since I love taking pictures of my dolls as much as I love collecting there will always be something fun to look at. Maybe it will be a new costume or a new room setting or just Pictures of an interesting a trip...Please stop by and look at ALLMYSTUFF

I don't know if this will work but here goes...Their are several albums now. I don't knkow how to name them...or actually where I go to put a title to each one. The one with the girls all in red and white are photos with Traveling Felicity and some Halloween shots. I redid one album after figuring out how to reorder and do captions right.

my website is a very unusual one- it doesn't only have the American girls, but features my sister's and my doll collection of around 50+ dolls and stuffed animals who all live in the doll town, Pleasantville that we have created in our house. The website tells the stories of the stuff that we've made them do, LOTS of pictures of them and their houses and activities, and information on each of them.
Enjoy!

It'll probably be helpful to post this here so it'll be easy to find if one of you needs to restore your AG. If you have any further questions of how to do it just PM me. I am more than happy to help.

These orders must be called in or ordered by mail (on a return or order form). They cannot be placed online. NLA means that it is No Longer Available.
You can call AG or email CS to check if replacement parts are available.
[email protected]
If you find a new code or correction, please just post it here or PM me, and I will update. It is very helpful if it is typed in upper/lower case with item name, then number, then price, because I am trying to just cut and paste. Also, if you can tell me which outfit/book/season it goes to it won't be put under other.
Also, please check the list to see if I already have it. It is easier for you to check the list before you post than for me to check it each time for each item. This will help avoid duplicates. If you are just updating (price change, NLA etc), please let me know that.
