Hello everyone! I've been a little ill, so this video is late. Apologies for that! I wanted to show you another vintage toy line you might be familiar with: Cabbage Patch Kids! Today, we have two little figurines in need of repair. It's a simple project, but I hope you still enjoy it and find it inspiring to do your own restorations.
