this was an excellent video. i don't collect baby dolls and i have never been intersted in reborns ( i like my fashion dolls best.) but just watching this sparked my interest. :D you've earned yourself a subscriber :)
Hi Nikki ,watching all your videos and just order my first reborn ( Daisy ) cant wait for her to arrive so i can get started , And i must say your videos have been a great help with me just starting out on my reborn Thank you .
Excellent tutorial, I just discovered you through my daughter who has the most fantastic preemie reborn. I got caught out by my hubby dressing her while daughter was in high school so bought me one for Xmas. The lady and her son knocked out loads on eBay b4 Xmas and mine has a fault on the painted hair, all I was offered was headbands and hats or even though her damage, I could at my cost send it back and pay for a different one to be returned to me so I accepted the cover ups and she sent me 3 hats and 3 head bands and I can see where she has thought "she's not having the gerbera clip off it" and one side of those has tiny 'teeth' to stop it falling of and it has two stitches holding it together from where she had wrenched it of. No pride in her work at all. Must have made thousands in the run up to Xmas. Sadly as my hubby bought it, he peeped in the box and left positive feedback. Sorry to bore you, you come across so friendły on your videos and I actually felt like I was chatting to a friend, One day I hope to get Isabella's hair rooted properly. No idea who by as I'm disabled with fibromyalgia and struggle wîth manual dexterity problems. She has closed eyes which is my preference and wears first size clothes whereas my daughters baby wears premature. I'm having a traditional pram restored but it's a family heirloom so when my son and daughter in law have their little one and he or she moves to a buggy then the pram comes back for my next grandchild and I hope for plenty with a brood of 6 between my husband and I. We lost 3 babies together and I found that for years I couldn't so much as hear a baby babble or cry but my daughters 'baby' has cured my depression so as well as the pleasurable side of having the reborns, they are a helpful aid too.Thankyou for taking the time to read this, you must be very very busy reborning your own babies plus helping others to see if I would be able to microroot Isabella's fair and I haven't got the nerves to dismantle Isabella and try. I think I'd have to use a cheap rubbish doll to practice.Anyway, my name Is Gena and I'm living in Lincolnshire, UK. Thanks once more.
Frog Princess2 hi there, I’ve got fibromyalgia too, I’m just starting reborning and I live in North Lincolnshire, I’m going to be learning rooting soon! Hope you got it sorted xx
Thank u sooooooo much I used this tutorial to reweight my Aston drake I got from ebay. And now she feels a lot more like my other reborns thank u. Payton jones
@MrAmericangirllover - his legs are 3/4 length but I thought they where a bit long so I put them on a body that enables him to have full legs. The length in inches is about 9"
will you please do a video like this for a toddler? My Arianna is too floppy and I would like for her to sit up better. I got her a new body with the moveable leg limbs, but fixed arms. I feel like she needs an armerture in her body or some kind of help. my Tibby's body needs help too. thanks. I love your videos.
Would you prefer, stuffing and glass beads or there are vinyl bellies and bums, I got stuck but I'm leaning towards the stuffing because you can get the right amount of weight you need. Thanks!
All doll prices are calculated using the "Custom Order Forms" on my website and price is determined according to the selections made. Price is displayed at the bottom and top of the form and will change as you edit options.
I use moleskin to seal off my head and limbs. The sticky padded moleskin you would put on your feet. Just cut it to size. I never knew what size plugs to buy, a lady on my facebook group suggested it.
Very good presentaion and I cah actually see and hear you. Your babies are so good. thank you. What body are you using in this video? Olove the shape of it!
Please respond: Can u please give me tips on where to buy the rooting tools, body, and the tiny bit of hair for rooting, and last but not least the paint. I am also desperate. REALLY.
cam I ask a question, I have been given a scalp that was brought in 2013 but it has no body how do you work out what size body to get. also how do you work out body size that is already on a baby
If someone wanted to try to make their own reborn, could they use like a wallmart or a dollar store doll as a 'kit' and then try to paint, weight, and root/reroot from there?
Kitty K You can do that. That is actually how reborns were first made. People usually remove all of the paint from the doll and start from scratch like that.
do you have to use a weighting sack because my cousins reborn doesn't have one and also do you have to use the cover things because I've got one and she doesn't
Hi I have a question. I have a doll and the arms are sticking. They are stuck and I can't turn them. I don't know why this happens. I don't know the size of rings for the limbs to keep it smooth. I don't know what to do. Tips?

Do you make custom dolls? I mean the way I would like one to look.I am a handicapped lady and my son is buying me a doll for Christmas and my birthday combined. I also want to know are you in the UK? I am in the US. I think it might be too expensive if you are in the UK. Please let me know. Thank you. Love you Sofia
Yes I make Custom Order dolls, there are custom order forms on my website that let you choose all the details for your reborn doll. There's a link to my website in the description. I live in Melbourne Australia and ship worldwide. Hope this helps. :)
I like them slim,in the body,newborn are wery slim around the bottom of the body,and the doll is easy to post.it they are to skuffede,one can not pose them like newborn.
Καλησπέρα μ'αρέσει πολύ αυτή η τέχνη σε λίγο καιρό θα παραγγείλω υλικά για κούκλες όπως και τα βίντεο το μόνο δεν ξέρω αγγλικά εσείς όταν στέλνετε τα βίντεο έρχονται στα ελληνικά;
