- Hi dolls! In this week's video I'll show you how I restored this vintage Allan doll :)
As usual, no two people are the same and there are a multitude of techniques one can use; if this is not how you would've personally done it, please avoid leaving rude/patronizing comments (I don't read them and they get automatically reported as spam, thank you!)

You have a very steady hand and more patience than most people. I love how the doll turned out.
Thank you very much! ❤️
I love old doll restorations. I have several vintage liccas and it brings me so much joy to see a tired old doll get a new lease on life. I enjoy your restorations and i hope you do more of them!
Thank you! I really enjoy doing restorations and would love to do more, however due to the high price tag of vintage dolls I find myself somewhat limited, but it's fun to alternate between custom work and restorations :)
Yes, I would love to see more and he turned out to be so handsome !! Looks new again.❤❤❤
Thanks!
Fantastic! I have both Ken from 62 and Alan from 64, though Alan disappeared after that, in my opinion, he is the most handsome vintage male doll ever produced by Mattel. I truly enjoyed your entire video including the caring for the clothings as I often do the same thing with every piece of vintage clothing I acquire. For me it is a Labor of love and highly therapeutic, and perhaps just as much as admiring them in their unique beauty and silent reverie standing in their display. With Gratitude and Appreciation for the work you do. Thank YOU!🙏 PEACE
Yess, I feel the exact same way, it's like in some way it satisfies the caregiver instinct haha. Thank you very much for your kind words! ❤️
Please make more ASMR videos with these dolls. Best channel ever! Found you from “the insider” channel. Now I’m going to watch the rest of your videos💙 this is so calming & really eases my anxiety. Thank you.
That's so nice to hear! Glad I could help in some way! Thank you very much ❤️
Poor Alan, all those cuts I was wondering if he was in a knife fight with GI Joe. 😅 He looks super handsome now.❤
Ooh, I like that storyline! The marketing team should've gone with that haha
Thank you ❤️
@@DoeDeerWonderland 🥰
I can't help it, I giggled a bit when you brushed his bum 🤭 What an amazing job! I can't believe you were able to restore the color of his arms, he looks like you just took him out of the box 😲
Haha I'm glad that bit didn't go unnoticed! Thank you very much ❤️ I'm very satisfied with how it turned out
This is honestly one of my favorite restorations, I know it's not a girl doll but Alan has such a sweet face and like you said kind of reminds me of vintage advertisements. I think restoration is so important and interesting and your videos are always so calm and nice to watch especially when I'm trying to chill out. Never stop!!
This is so sweet, thank you so much for the encouragement! :)
Great restoration, I had two Allan dolls, so I repainted one blonde with blue eyes...he's very handsome. Watching your vids inspired me to do so. Thank you!
Oh I love color variations for Allan!
“What you see isn’t a bondage technique, even though it may be” 😂
😅😂
hello, nice job I like the dedication and love you put into restoring that Allan, I have mine too and I take great care of them.
Thank you so much, really appreciate it!
I thank you so much. Because your CZcamsing me on how to restore dolls Barbie doll. 🇺🇲☮️🦋🐞🐝
🙏🙏
Glad to see Allan gets a little attention. Great work and a lot of patience. Thanks
Thank you so much!
"before the vintage barbie stans come for me" I howledddd
My only note is the acrylics - avoid Apple Barrel, it stains, and stains spread. I used one of their reds to paint lips back on a #4 and it stained immediately.
Yeah I know, fortunately I don't use Apple Barrel because they don't sell them in the UK
Or if they do I've never come across them 👀
@@DoeDeerWonderland They (And "Folk Art" brand) are the primary offerings at Walmart here in US/Southwestern US.
I very much enjoyed your vid. It has inspired me to retire my Ken's and allans
Haha great to hear, thank you for watching!
Didn't mean retire. I meant restore
Yes please more Kens and Alans
Noted ✨
Wow, all of your work is truly remarkable, and your videos are entertaining!
I love watching restoration vids of all kinds, but yours videos are more my flavor.
"What you see here isn't a bondage technique, though it might be" 😏🤣 that got me good.
Thanks!
Thank you very much, I'm happy you enjoyed it ❤️
Another first class job.
You must have excellent eyesight and patience to do such fine work.
Beautiful result.
Au contraire, my eyesight is terrible and I often get super frustrated with how long it takes, but I do try my best! 😂 Thank you 🙏
He turned out amazing.
Thank you :)
For Halloween next year you should dress up like the little old man that fixed Woody in Toy Story 2 and do a video. That would be a fun video to watch.
The amount of comments involving the old man from toy story is alarming, should I be worried? Lmao
@@DoeDeerWonderland I don't think so. You're still so young. What is amazing/alarming/surprising? That you have the talent of someone that has being doing this for over 50 years. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I love it. I find it very calming watching your videos.
🥰So cute. Love the video. Thanks for sharing.
Yes,I would love to see more like these.
Thank you! ☺️❤️
Love this restoration! Very adorable Allen. I love mine too. Isn't repairing and cleaning the old clothes so Satisfying? Love doing that myself. Yes please more videos like this one. :) :)
Thank you! I love mending their little clothes too, it satisfies some weird motherly instinct 😂
@@DoeDeerWonderland yes for me too :)
I also love these dolls.Your work is amazing.Thank you for your Instruktions!
Thank you ❤️
I find most of your videos to be naturally ASMR anyway. This was pleasant to watch. Allan turned out great. Your little tin of sewing closures reminded me of my Grandmother’s sewing box. Great idea to use them!😊
Means a lot, thank you! 🩷
He have always be a favorite!
💯
He looks great
Thanks!
He looks great and newer lol 😃
Thank you ☺️
😊
I love how weird and wonderful you are! These are the dolls of my youth…I’m 62
Thank you for following 🤗
I love these videos . So relaxing.
Thank you very much!
The way he looks now, I don't see how your Barbies will be able to keep their hands off him!
Well he's taken (spoiler: it's not a Barbie) 😂
@@DoeDeerWonderland 🤣
Can people send you their dolls to get restored (for a price of course)? I have an Allan doll that needs restoring and this was so well done!
Yes of course! You can message me on Instagram @Doedeerwonderland for details :)
Love the backstitch tip! 😀 Love the vid!
Thank you! ❤️
Found you from the insider video and I thought your voice was *perfect* for ASMR. Happy to see that you’re getting into it! Love your work!
Thank you very much ☺️
Alan was great! I wish his red hair had been flocked or rooted though.
Yess, I would've loved an Alan with brushable hair!
Beautiful job!
Thank you!
He looks sooo much better! I was wondering what you used to change his arms back to the correct color. You said you should try dental cleaner bwfore trying this... thx❤
Thanks! It was hydrogen peroxide :)
Beautiful restoration! I have learned so much from watching your videos!! You are a truly skilled artisan and I cannot wait to see more of your iconic restorations. Question: does the hair developer work on the squishy vinyl faces to help lighten them. This is a common problem I see in these vintage dolls and was wondering if it could help solve that problem :)
Thank you so much!
I really wouldn't, as it could lighten/ruin the face paint.
Only use if the face paint's already ruined and you plan on giving your doll a total repaint :)
~...aLan Lewks happpieee....yaaaaasss mamaaaa
Alan does have a very Norman Rockwell aesthetic.
Yes, you're absolutely right!
Now, Ken and his Best Friend look like new.
❤❤❤❤❤
Sir, I could watch you do this kind of thing all day. I think it's helping me get better at doll redos. Are you in USA ? What glue for the number on his sweater ?
Thank you! I'm in the UK. The glue is just generic fabric glue :)
notifications on and subscribed :D
Welcome! ❤️
Where do you get plastic polish from? Excellent work, by the way 😊
I got mine on Ebay! They should have it in hardware stores as well. Thank you 🤗
what does ASMR stand for. I am old so i am not familiar with the latest abreviations.
autonomous sensory meridian response
Basically just a bunch of satisfying sounds that trigger relaxation
what brand of paints do you use?
Winsor & Newton!
Is it safe to remove vintage Barbies arms this way?
Yes, as long as they're soft and it doesn't feel like you're pulling too hard you're fine
@@DoeDeerWonderland also would boiling water from a kettle work? And will it make the arms loose and do I just click them back in 💓
Yes of course, I usually just wiggle them loose after boiling, it's safer than pulling
If Allen is a boy, why is he looking sideways also? I thought it was for the females to have a secret?
Why are you as a man looking sideways? Is it so you can see other MEN? 🤨👀
