If you are purchasing your Barbie dolls to add on to your collection, then you will want to make sure that you do everything in your power to keep the doll safe from damage. This is especially important if you purchase them as an investment and plan to sell them many years later.

If you wish to keep your Barbie doll in its original box, there is one step that you can take to keep the doll in tiptop condition. You will want to poke tiny holes into the collectible’s box. This will help to prevent any mold or mildew from forming inside the box.

No matter how you store your Barbie, whether it is in a box or on stands, do not store the Barbie dolls in the attic, garage, or basement. The temperatures can fluctuate greatly throughout the year in these rooms, which can ruin the materials the Barbie dolls are made of.

If storing the Barbie dolls in a large box altogether, do not store the Barbie dolls on their backs. You will want to place them face down. This will help to prevent the eyes of the doll for going to the back of their head or even fall off completely.

Most importantly, when storing Barbie dolls for collection, you want to make sure that they are well out of the reach of children and dogs. This will prevent them from accidentally getting damaged during play. You can display the Barbie dolls on shelves high up around the room. To help prevent them from falling or to save on space, you can remove them from the packages and place the collector Barbie dolls on display stands.
