Must be 18 or older to purchase doll. Please do not ask me for a free doll or to lower the price.
My dolls are very for the quality.
I will only send to the address PayPal has on file.
I will be glad to email you a safety picture of the doll so you know I am the artist and I have the doll in my possession.
My doll is NOT meant to be a play toy for a small child. Also, if you have any chewing pets, please use care with my doll as the limbs are filled with fine glass beads.
Up for "adoption" is my version of the adorable realborn kit, Charles, from Bountiful Baby. If you are not aware of what a realborn doll is you may want to check on Bountiful Baby website. The kit is a first quality, not a second. I will include the "certificate of authenticity" to prove this.
I have used only genesis heat set paint on my baby doll. This paint bonds with the vinyl and does not flake or fade out. The paint will withstand the test of time.
Charles represents a small reborn weighing in at about 5 pounds 8 ounces and 20 inches long. He wears newborn size very nicely. He will be such fun to shop for.
Charles looks amazingly real. I have blushed the parts and given them delicate undertones just as a real newborn would be. I've attended to every crease and wrinkle and given the parts very delicate and realistic veining. I have given the limbs lots of mottling tones representing a very new babay.
My choice of hair for Charles was to give him a very natural and realistic head of painted hair. It takes many hours to create painted hair of this quality. I love the look of painted hair on a doll representing a newborn. It sits close to the scalp and still shows the skin through the hair. I paint the hair with brushes with the fewest of bristles. The style has lots of swirly movement and lots of baby hairs towards the temples. It is perfect for someone that wants to put on lots of baby hats and caps.
I have weighted Charles to pose and feel like a real baby in your arms. I have used only high quality items for stuffing and weighting the cloth body and the vinyl limbs. I have used fine glass beads to weight the limbs and capped and glued to prevent any leakage. I have weighted the cloth body with plastic poly pellets enclosed safely in a strong nylon stocking which has been surrounded by quality fiber fill. The arms and legs are jointed and can be carefully positioned for posing. I've weighted the head with plastic poly pellets enclosed in a strong nylon. The head also contains quality fiber fill and has been sealed to prevent leakage. The head can turn from side to side. Please be sure to support the baby's head just as you would a real newborn. The limbs are attached to the cloth body with cable ties. Where the ties end I have put fabric stay put on the endings.
Please be sure this is the doll you want as I DO NOT TAKE ANY RETURNS OR EXCHANGES.
The layette for Charles will include the clothing he is seen wearing, custom certificate of adoption (please let me know if you want to choose the name for baby and the name of the adopting parent). It will include a layette blanket, extra diaper. I include my own personal care sheet for keeping the doll in pristine condition. No other items or props will be included. I always include an extra item. The hand crocheted cocoon will be included.
If you have any questions at all about how Charles was painted, assembled or photographed please contact me. I am an honest and upfront seller and would appreciate the same from any buyer.
