I was so pleased to find Diane’s Website and to learn that she re-strings all kinds of dolls. My lovely Sindy ballerina has had a visit to Diane and has been safely returned all fully re-stringed and just like she was when she was new! She poses beautifully once again. Diane was kind enough to let me know when she had arrived and also when she was about to be posted back to me. I’m a very happy customer and highly recommend Diane if your doll needs help!
