... help really appreciated. I know I have seen this on here loads of times but I cannot find it. dollchitchat/Christo_pull_hair.gif

My new elf, needs her strings tightening a little I think as she is very floppy and unpredictable.

Can any one help me on how to do it? Or where to find a tutorial I have found several on restringing but no way am I going that far. I have done it before I think but I have got bjd nerves lol.

Pics of her are in new arrivals. I am thrilled with her. dollchitchat/AddEmoticons10955.gif

This girl's is the best you can see all parts on right side of page and be sure to click pause so you can watch them at leisure. I like her's due to good lighting and she doesn't have music playing and everything is up on table. As for her mom in back ground guess couldn't be helped. Good Luck, MK

You can also suede/hot glue her joints (apparently lol!) - I've never tried but it makes them less kicky and unpredictable. Might be worth searching on here and DoA for instructions - good luck!!

Lol at her mum in the background, do you think she knew she was being filmed for eternity in her dressing gown dollchitchat/AddEmoticons07630.gif

dollchitchat/vdaybouncies3.gif Thank you Marie for the link. Lol. Her Mum may never know. Nice clear video though so I will forgive her.
It is reassuring as I am terrified of ruining her. dollchitchat/AddEmoticons12628.gif

Another thing you can try instead of completely re-stringing her is to open the back of the head and pull the stringing up and make a few new knots in it to hold it tighter in the head ^^ I'm always worried about re-stringing mine so knots work for a while ^^

There is a bjd stall at Kelham who are offering restringing from £5 if you are going, Ruth (and if you are going I would dollchitchat/morevdayb2.gif to meet your Sprite, oh and you too of course dollchitchat/AddEmoticons07621.gif )

dollchitchat/141.gif Thanks H I think that must be what I did before. I will try it again. I don't think I can afford to come to Kelham Kay sorry. iF SOMEONE WAS BUYING OR SWAPPING MY HOUSE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN, a really good excuse but it does not look likely.
