I just wish they ran bigger. There's no way they fit my 7 year old. The size 7 clothes (tops) barely fit my 3 year old. We bought Camille's skirt in size 7, that was a tad loose in the waist and will fit curly girly when she's four.<br /><br />I love the WW as water play companions. How cute you made it so Ashlyn could tinkle!

Do you think the tacky glue will hold up to the water play?

Maybe you've attached wigs with E-6000 no trouble, but I found an alternative that worked really well. A couple years ago I had part of my Samantha's wig detach while attempting to put on one of the AG braided headbands. When searching for what to use to reapply the wig, E-6000 wasn't recommended as highly as what I came across and ultimately used: Aleene's Gel Tacky Glue. You might find a different brand, but any gel tacky glue is the important part.<br /><br />I've used E-6000 for other projects and I can see why it could be less preferable--it can be more difficult to control, gets very sticky, and dries/gets gloppy very fast, which could be a problem if a mistake is made. I had to use what felt like a lot of glue for a section about the size of two quarters, and I was worried it would soak through the cap into the hair itself. But it didn't. To help it set, I tied the wig down with a shoelace. Some glue seeped out, but since it had a more liquid consistency I was able to wipe it off easily. E-6000 isn't as forgiving in my experience. Samantha's wig handled other headbands with no trouble once the glue was set. <br /><br />Again, if E-6000 has worked for you in the past, go for it. I found the gel tacky glue to be a safer and preferred method. I think I had a little got in Sam's hair but I was able to use water to get it out quickly--something I don't think could be accomplished with E-6000. My hands were shaking terribly and I was on edge the whole time as it's the only time I've done wig repair. -- JenRising Starhopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05361564418391910849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5966560382421058464.post-48801289488770252182017-03-20T11:13:52.907-05:002017-03-20T11:13:52.907-05:00good jobgood jobAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5966560382421058464.post-48623140526852237902017-03-20T09:12:32.951-05:002017-03-20T09:12:32.951-05:00This is so nice.
