- Regular Cleaning and Maintenance
To keep your reborn dolls looking their best, regular cleaning is essential. Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the vinyl parts and avoid using harsh chemicals. For mohair or synthetic hair, a soft brush can help keep it tidy. If the dolls have clothing, hand wash them in gentle detergent and air dry. - Proper Storage
When not on display, store your reborn dolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and damage. Consider using a protective display case or keeping them in their original boxes. If you are using a shelf, keep them out of reach of pets and young children to avoid accidents. - Limit Handling
While it’s tempting to show off your collection, frequent handling can lead to wear and tear. If you do handle them, be sure to wash your hands first to avoid transferring oils or dirt. When posing or changing outfits, do so gently and avoid pulling on limbs. - Use Appropriate Accessories
When dressing your reborn dolls, choose clothing and accessories that fit well and are made from gentle materials to prevent stains or damage. Avoid items with small parts that could pose a choking hazard or cause injury. - Document and Track Your Collection
Keep a detailed record of your collection, including purchase dates, artists, and any special features of each doll. This will help you with insurance purposes and can also enhance your appreciation of each piece, especially if you decide to sell or trade them in the future.
