This stunning reborn baby doll has been created from the Real born kit Summer Rain from Bountiful Baby. Summer has been a true joy to reborn. She has a melt in your arms feel. I have named her Isabelle and will refer to her as that throughout the auction. If you are not familiar with Realborns you may want to log onto Bountiful Baby to read about this beautiful art form for the reborns. Please contact me if you would like additional photos. I have many.
I've used only Genesis heat set paint to give Isabelle true life-like skin tones. I wanted to give her the skin tones of a very newborn little one. She has sweet blotchy skin tones and stork bites. I've worked on my little baby doll for many hours, days and weeks to make her this detailed. I gave her very subtle veining, sweet mottling, realistic painted eyebrows and many sweet details. Isabelle was painted with layer upon layer of soft translucent skin tones. She has very soft skin colors on her sweet little mouth.. I OPTED TO GIVE ISABELLE A MAGNETIC PACIFIER. SHE HAS A STRONG MAGNET BEHIND HER LIPS TO HOLD THE MAGNETIC PACIFIER. PLEASE USE CAUTION AROUND ANY EQUIPMENT OR PERSONS SENSITIVE TO SUCH STRONG MAGNETS.
Isabelle looks like she is a baby peacefully at sleep. She was given very wispy and natural looking eyelashes. The rooted hair for her lashes came from Slumberland Nursery. The lashes are securely glued. I would advise being careful about putting clothing over the doll's head and face.
I spent countless hours painting Isabelle with a delicate head of baby fine hair. I lay down layer and layer to build up depth and realism. Painted hair on a reborn baby doll is perfect for someone that likes to put lots of hats, headbands and caps on the dolls. The little style will always look neat and sweet. I added a layer of matt varnish to give the baby hairs a very realistic look. I love the effects I can get when I take my paint brush in hand. I can get very lovely swirls, crown and fine baby hairs. The brushes I use have only the very fewest bristles so I get a very fine line. Most people are so surprised when I tell them baby's hair is painted. Baby has sweet natural looking painted eyebrows.
My home is completely smoke free. I try to include everything covering the making of my dolls. If you have any questions please contact me. Please be aware my doll is not meant to be a play toy for small children. Not recommended for children under the age of 13. With careful care my dolls will last for many years.
I am always very precise with the finger and toe nails. They are very realistic looking. I use a magnifier and paint them over and over until I am happy with the result. The tiny little finger and toe nails on Isabelle were definitely a challenge but I was very pleased with the results of all the time involved. The nail tips are a natural looking color giving the look of a sweet baby manicure. Baby's hands and feet have been blushed sweetly and each crease, fold and wrinkled has been shaded for realism. The vinyl on this baby doll is very soft. Keep doll away from any strong heat source.
Isabelle was given the sweetest little body. . The limbs are full length allowing for a large variety of clothing. The limbs and head can be carefully turned for posing. The doll's limbs are weighted with fine glass beads. The torso is weighted with plastic poly pellets and excellent quality fiber fill. Her head is weighted with plastic poly pellets and quality fiber fill. She is a small baby doll and just melts into my arms. Her realism is amazing when held. No sand has been used in the making of the baby doll. The baby doll represents a brand newborn and her little head does need support
