Face Protectors?

[ZennaBug]

I am getting ready to send Amber's head off to Texas for a faceup.  But I need a face protector first.  Where on earth does one find something like that?  I looked on eBay, but they don't have any small enough for her (her head is more or less PukiFee sized).  Help?

Denver doll maybe? Did the artist request a face protector to be sent? I've mailed BJD with just bubble wrap loosely wrapped with no damage to the face up.

I was at Denver Doll on Friday, they don't have any.    The artist "highly suggests" that I send with a face protector.  Do you think that bubble wrap would be enough to protect her, even with eyelashes?

Junkyspot.com has 60/70cm doll face protectors for $2.99(?)
Usually, Fairyland just wraps tissue paper on faceups, if I recall... it's been a while since I had a FL doll.

Fast food drink dome plastic cup lids also work in a pinch.  With proper tissue paper wrapping.

Well, she's only a 21cm doll.  Those would be big enough for most of her body lol.    But the lid idea sounds promising actually.

I had a Multi head Ante ( between a Puki and Pukifee ) and the artist sent her home with a small paper cup face protector lol.

That sounds like the best cheap option.  I'll see what I can come up with.

The head was sent without a protector, if I would've thought of it I would have included one in the package. Ah, well... I've had heads sent just in tissue paper and/or wrapped in strips of bubble foam. Since the head is so small, you could prolly use the bubble half of one of those toy pods. Y'know... The things you get cheap toys in out of those gumball-like machines.

That's a good idea too.

I found one in my doll stuff Zenna if you want it. I have no idea how to ship it though.

[ZennaBug]

Ooh, that would be awesome, Vertefae!  Would it be safe in a bubble mailer you think?

[Vertefae]

It might

PM'ing you.
