EBAY AUCTION FOR SYDNEY

Sydney is about to be born!

I have been working several weeks now on reborning the Sydney sculpt by Jorja Pigott.  I finally got her hair finished today and her body put together. Her head is not attached in these photos as the glue is drying inside but you can see the idea of how she is looking. I realized after I took these pics I need to gloss her mouth and nostrils too and have since done that. Tomorrow she will be ready to attach and weight her head and get her photo shoot to go up for sale.

I can not tell you how much I love this sculpt!  She was such a joy to reborn!  She has such perfect little features and her drawn legs make her so snuggly!  She just seems to melt right into your arms when you are holding her! 

When I saw the original prototype at EXPO in Oct. that Jorja had reborn I knew then that this was a baby I would want for my own collection.  I ordered one kit to reborn to keep and this one to reborn to sell.  She is a limited edition of 1000 and this baby is #190.

Time to update

I spent today moving my website to a new address that is a little easier to remember.  It is still hosted by webs.com but the address now contains "lildumplins" in it instead of anjsmiles which makes more sense when doing a search. 

The address for the new website is http://lildumplins.webs.com/

If you visit the members page on my website you can sign up there to be on my mailing list and be notified of new babies available in the nursery.

Another project of mine this weekend was to install Movie Maker on my computer and make a movie clip of my reborn baby Deijah who is still in need of a new Mommy for Easter! 

Here is the movie clip:

I am in love with Sydney!

I have been painting on a Sydney reborn doll kit by Jorja Pigott.  I saw the prototype for this baby in person at EXPO back in the fall and fell in love with this face!  Now that I have been painting on her I love her even more.  She has such wonderful facial features and a perfectly shaped head!  This one will be going up for sale when she is finished.  I will do the brows after I decide on a hair color.

Here is a photo of how she looks so far. Click on photo to see larger image.

RAIN RAIN RAIN AND HOW TO GET YOUR OWN CUSTOM LIL DUMPLINS BABY

This past week was such a rainy mess!  I thank God for the rain that comes to wash away the pollen but the ground (and me) can only soak up so much rain!  Waking to thunderstorms morning and night had my kids irritable and my dog howling!  I was so grateful for the sunshine that showed up yesterday.

When it is raining a lot for some reason I move in really slow motion and lack motivation.  I decided to spend one day sorting through my reborn kits and washing many of them to prepare them to be painted.  I just sort of kept going and lining them up on the counter.  When I came home from picking my daughter up at school I took a look and giggled at the site on my kitchen counter.  I took this picture and call it "What's on the prep counter in your kitchen?"

Wouldn't it be fabulous to treat yourself or someone you love to a Lil Dumplins baby for Easter or Mother's Day?  I currently have some openings to make custom reborn babies.  I have several lovely kits in stock and would enjoy the opportunity to make a custom reborn for anyone who is interested.  If you are interested in having your own custom made Lil Dumplins Reborn, go to this page on my website to see photos of the kits I have in stock at this time.
