🎨CRAFTS🎨 How I Restore My Vintage Polly Pocket Toys: Repaint, New Logo, Polishing, & More
People have been asking me how I restore my vintage Polly Pockets so I finally made this video on it!
In this video, I show: cleaning and polishing the compact, logo restoration, and character restoration. As a bonus, I also show how to make custom fairy wings for the fairy Polly dolls.
Keep in mind that if you’re planning on selling these Pollies in the future, the value might go down. When you modify anything vintage, it’s not a guarantee the value will rise, even if you’re restoring them.
But if you’re like me and you just collect these for your own happiness, then you can take your own creative liberties!
The materials are listed below. For all the steps and techniques, watch the video above.
