Testimonials

Margaret's Doll World is a great place to bring your toy repair and restorations Margaret works with careful restoration on my lovely doll (more than 80 years old) and when I returned to pick her up she was beautiful (tears in my eyes). I never realised that somebody could make a repair at such high standards, reasonable costs and dedication. I would highly recommend for anyone seeking to restore their childhood treasure.

Thank you so much for my doll. Just got her today. What a transformation you are very talented and she has clothes as an extra surprise.
You have done a wonderful job, thank you again

My doll has been admired by family and friends - many thanks for the transformation.

Thank you so much for the lovely repair of the two dolls. They look gorgeous and are giving much pleasure to my granddaughter, now that I have washed the clothes. Thank you.

I just cannot put into words how pleased & happy I am for you making such a wonderful job of repairing my doll.

Thank you for the wonderful restoration of my mother's doll - and for prioritising completion. My mother was amazed as she had not thought that she would see poor Betty again!

I have just received my felt Bambi that my mother sent to you for repair. It is amazing, just as I remember it as a small child, and it made me cry. I have owned him for 58 years and, as you saw, he was very sad. Thank you so much,xx

She has arrived! I'm so thrilled thank you Margaret she is absolutely wonderful.
Loving all the little extras. You are a very...... Clever lady.
I'm so excited to give her to my Mum on her birthday.

Poem

Old & Broken, cracked or torn
Wig been cut, looks forlorn
Stuffing seeping from huge rend
Eyes depressed, joints don't bend
Dolls, teddies, dogs and cats
Pandas, monkeys all not so fat
Loved by children and adults too
So frail, so weak, what shall we do?

Call in Margaret with her glue,
In Hospital Ward, garden view
Loving hands, tender care
Your treasure she can repair
Bionic parts can be created
New vision even contemplated
Surgeon's skills beyond the blue
Patient recovered returns to you

The motto of this little tale
We can mend nearly all what ail
If in doubt please check with us
It is done with little fuss.

We also sell Re-Born Dolls
