OK, I posted a website where to buy the reborn baby dolls done by artists that I know will not scam you, but I can't find it now. These dolls are amazing and I love mine that I painted, but I have non for sale. They are for family. Here it is again. Please read reviews. Not all artists are talented. The scammers are everywhere, however, this site is recommended by the artists I know and associate with. This is like ebay for reborn artists, please do not go for the cheap (around $100-200) dolls and websites, people pay hundreds of dollars to receive a horrible looking doll, or they get no doll at all. There is no recourse on these fake sites, once you pay them you are on your own. www.reborns.com is the legitimate site for reborn artists and collectors.

If you are interested in painting your own doll, you can buy the bare kits here: https://macphersoncrafts.com/sculptors you will get an unpainted unassembled kit. You have to purchase various colors of heat set paints, a paint curing oven, eyes, hair, a cloth body, a heat set mixing medium for the paint, heat set varnish, brushes, a drying rack to hang the parts while drying, or while cooling after baking/curing. You have to cure after each layer of paint. When done painting, you have to varnish and cure to protect the paint. It is a lot of work and a really big investment. Please do not buy cheap synthetic hair, or imitation mohair, it is terrible to work with, I learned my lesson, you will end up making a lot of holes in your baby doll and maybe get 1 or 2 hair in. Just be careful, if you want to know whom I bought my hair from, just ask me. I have no secrets. I will share the good things I found. I already did the trial and error part. Also, I love "glass" eyes, Oval fla...

I think I should give her a few freckles, lol it would be cute.

I am actually rooting the girls dolls that is why I can not do too much for my Phoebe. By the time I get to my baby girl my hands are already hurting and stiff and often twisting. I have to pace myself. This is how far I got with Emmie.

I can't stand for her to be unassembled. I just can't. I had to put her together until I can work on her rooting a little more. I knitted this hat and scarf for her

just waiting to be rooted, sorry my room is pretty dark right now. She still needs lashes brows and hair but I already like her ❤

I love how young women try to lecture me about having the right not to be with your kids 24/7 when I would give anything to have my time with my beautiful boys back to where I got sick. Except not to be sick this time. I wasn't sick because I was defective I was sick because of my ex-husband and his long arms. If you don't want to be a mommy 24/7 then get a doll, not a living, breathing child. You can leave a doll without attention, hugs, or love, or your presence for days and nothing will happen, physically or emotionally, but a real child needs your love and attention every day, YES 24/7 365 days a year. They don't realize how mommies who lost time with their children would love it back, every single moment. I had a maternal instinct since I was little, I always watched and protected the children in the playground, I was a little mommie, lol I do understand you have to work because of the times today... but don't try to lecture me about not wanting to be with your ...
