    Thank you SO MUCH for your lovely comments. I assure you I read each one of them and feel incredibly GRATEFUL for your support 😊❤ (unfortunately, I can't reply to each of them as I used to do because the channel has grown so much! But I will address all the questions ASAP).

    Oh my gooood, STOOOP, THAT IS SO CUTE!!!!! I am in LOVE with the final result, and I think the darker pink in the mane worked so well!!!

    Wow! The before looked like a very unhappy Applejack after taking an involuntary mud bath. The end result looks like a brand new pony! The bows are pretty cute and they match the pony well. :)

      I thought it was Applejack at first as well.

    The rabbit tail looked quite cute actually! Very good intuition with the marks not being rust and for trying acetone, it did look a different colour and "pattern" from rust. The hair bows were adorable! Don't be embarrassed 🥰

  • @MyPets777

    The bows made this pony even cuter :3
    I think they suit her very well! I love pink ponies and yours turned out great!!

    The ribbons were so cute!!!!! I petition you call the peroxide treatment the “pony pick-me-up”. Not very descriptive, but cute 😊

      I love it!! Thank you for the idea 😊😊

    Bruno is adorable. I have a pure white old boy called Tari. He is my darling cat and always with me. He too is thin from age. He's 21.

  • @samanthaellenrook9199
    @samanthaellenrook9199 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    Your Bruno is a double of my Gordy. He's also a very old gentleman, and very scrawny (although he could eat for six). He's not scary, just a bit care worn, like an old teddy bear.
    The pony came up great, I'm impressed by how well her pink came up. The ribbons are cute. The playsets always came with ribbons like that, so it's very in keeping. ❤🐈😸

    Don't be embarrassed about the bows! They're adorable! And they fit so well with the pink pony, of you had said it's what she came with originally, I wouldn't have questioned it. They're the PERFECT shade of blue for that shade of pink.

  • @moonlightwite
    @moonlightwite ปีที่แล้ว +8

    The hair bows are perfect for her, don't be embarrassed! They remind me of the G1 Pony cartoon where some of them had bows on their tails.

    It was interesting seeing you reuse the tail this time.

    She's beautiful again, & your little cutie Bruno is such a sweet boy virtual gentle hugs and kiss to your cat. He may be old he still a handsome cat.
    I do hope to see Demon Sunset, Flurry Heart,

    I want you to know I just ordered the g3 star catcher (with cloth wings) and crystal princess desert rose ponies that I had as a kid, with intent to restore them. I'm very excited. They were my favorite ponies

  • @user-wl3fs4im8f
    @user-wl3fs4im8f ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Don’t be embarrassed over the bows, they were a wonderful touch!! I love her shorter mane, and I also think the darker color looks nicer on her as well. Sometimes restoration is a lot of happy little accidents. 💖

    the transformation was incredible, peroxide + UV really are magic! i also got strangely attached to a G1 starshine i found at a thrift store for 2€.. the pony was in horrible condition, nail polish, paint, all hair cut as short as possible, no face & some cancer spots! shes currently in peroxide treatment (i dont have a UV chamber yet, im lazy hehe). i decided to keep the short hair, i find it charming! i want all the best for her, i'm so excited to give her a face and a symbol again :D

    So cute. I couldn't belive that it was supposed to be pink. Amazing 😍 the Bunny tail was so cute. It inspired me to do a Bunny Pony. Can't belive i haven't thought of this earlier. I Love Bunnies 😍
    And yes i did the haircutting too when i was little. But now i am 31 and still cut my Hair but now i can do it the right way 😂

  • @sirencalloftoys9162

    I love the bows! They look wonderful. Many ponies in my childhood had contrasting ribbons. I think the blue is the perfect choice.

  • @rrgoodwill2914
    @rrgoodwill2914 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The blue bows are actually a perfect addition to a pony named Cotton Candy. Some of the actual candy also comes in blue as well as pink (at least in the States--any other countries have blue cotton candy/candy floss?).
    Love these videos. It's amazing to see how much you're able to clean up these ponies and give them new life! 🤗💜

  • @zeldakasumi
    @zeldakasumi ปีที่แล้ว

    You cleaned her up so well. Amazing!
    I would love to see a "victory rolls" hairstyle done on a pony with a shorter mane like this. It would be challenging to get quite right, I'm sure, but I think it could look cute.

    what a lovely restoration; I love that you made it a little unique with slightly darker hair so that it feels like a brand new pony. After seeing it in such a sad state at the beginning, it's so nice to see it shiny and new looking and so full of love and care towards its restoration

    Just wanted to say that watching your restorations made me want to try and find some of the ponies I remembered having as a very little kid (Melody and Firefly specifically, among others). I managed to find them all and having them brings me a lot more happiness than i expected them to bring.
    I found them quite well cared for, so i only need to do a little cleaning, but i love the new life you give to these ponies. Thanks for sharing your work and skills!

  • @brittanymchaffie7604

    Yay! Another video! I have a Cotton Candy original plush. I wonder if this pony was in a box next to something rusting, not from the tail but from something else?

  • @jackdawjames7696

    @ACDBunnie ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job 🙂 I love the blue bows. They make the pony look so much cuter! It adds a little pop of contrast and makes the color of the body and color of the mane look more similar / makes those colors look like they go together more. It's nice to have that little bit of blue break up and add a little variety to all the pink, as much as I like pink.

    I love your taste when cleaning up these ponies. I've never had an interest in mlp, or pony restoration at all, before your videos. So while my perspective isn't one of a preservationist, and I can understand the value in restoring the ponies to their factory beauty, I really enjoy your personal touches. Not every pony is perfect, but the bows sure are.

    Yisela, I have to tell you how your videos helped me. I went through a difficult time last year and through your MLP restaurations I got into collecting as well. It makes me so happy and I am very thankful to you for sharing your love of MLPs and other toys. Love from Germany 💕

  • @KitsuyuutsuR
    @KitsuyuutsuR หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love these videos so much! ❤ I was about 10 years old (I think?) when My Little Pony was first released and Cotton Candy was one of the original 6 (I didn’t have her then, my first pony was Blossom). When I’m feeling anxious, these videos always make me feel so much more relaxed… I still have some ponies, none were my originals because my mother threw them out. They were either bought on eBay or bought when they rereleased them and I had specific ones I was looking for (all the ones from the first cartoon and I’ve finally gotten them all now). Periodically, I take my ponies for a wash. I use shampoo and container on their hair always. I’ve always taken such great care of my ponies, even when I was a little girl. It makes me sad when I see them in such horrible condition, which is why I love your videos so much. To see them so lovingly restored brings me a lot of joy 😊❤ Depression and anxiety melt away when I watch you take such great care of them and that’s worth so much to me. Thank you for everything you do! 🥰

    She turned out really fantastic, and the shorter mane works well.
    I actually personally really like how the faded pink hair looks on some ponies, you might try that look out if you ever get a duplicate Cotton Candy.
