I have been working with a local doll maker on finding ways to repair the Crees wax dolls. We are now able to offer service to fix scratches and marks, like fingernail marks or little chips and imperfections. We can also strighten crooked limbs, this happens especially to the older Crees dolls.
We are still working on a way to remove the seam from glued on fingers, So hopefully sometime in the future we will be able to offer finger repair. <
Some of the proceeds will be used to fund this site.
Pricing for the service: Please also include return insured shipping cost.
Hands- $50
Body - $100
Extensive Body Repair $175-Up
When mailing the body of the doll if the hands are not damaged please send only the body of the doll. Remove all clothes and undergarments (But leave the elastic that holds the middle together).
Anything you mail must be insured
Please email the site Admin@creesandcoedolls.stirsite.com if you are interested in a repair. Please send photos of what you need fixed.
I scratched this design into her head as an example. You can see the gooves its a deep scratch from scissor tips.
This is the repaired head. The scratches have been removed.
This area is under the wig, It was already ruff. But you can see the repaired site is smooth now.
This dolls neck had heat damage. Her chin was resing on her chest. We were able to repostition her head to the upright pose.
This was a standing doll. Her legs were warped from heat. We were able to reposition her legs so she is in a sitting postition. We also reshaped her arms to a bent postition to rest in her lap.
