I loved my Baby Beans when I was little …I remember vividly taking her on holiday and sleeping with her …I was never into baby dolls …but loved her ,
I have no idea what happened to her …lost on one of my house moves I suspect …which is a shame …I was always do careful of my childhood favourites ..but she is long gone … so when I saw this little waif …who was the spitting image of my old BB ..I had to rescue her
Poo thing had been loved , she had obviously lost her beans and had been repaired …so after a bath ….I carefully repaired her feet , replaced her stuffing with kapock , and new beans …I could remember how she felt ..and how she cuddled …then I made her a tunic and new hat to match her new feet , carefully covered her holes , and replaced her hair …it was half gone ..and I was sure my girl had paler hair ..although this hair was very dirty and discoloured
…I’m so happy with BB …she sits by my bed now ….and I do love her , she brings back so many memories
