So much going on

There is just so much going on right now - dr. appointments, van appointments to get an estimate and sell it, getting a car inspected to see if it would be good to buy, regular work, looking into going back to school this summer, and much more.

But through it all I am still working on Estelle, and she is coming along so sweetly! I only have a few details to do (nailtips, lips, eyebrows, and the final "pore" layer) and then I'll do some before-hair pictures of her.

A highlight of this week: My 74th baby went home this week and I got to see his mama opening his box :) Her mom video-taped the opening, with the family all around, and it was so exciting and so much fun to see everyone's reaction and meeting him for the first time! I almost cried, it was so great <3

I'll post again when I get the painting on Estelle (I'm going to have to start thinking of her name lol) done.

Dolls So Beautiful forum

This forum is my home, where I can share my life, especially my love for creating reborns (that most people in my non-online life don't understand, though some of them try). If you create reborn dolls, collect them, make clothes or other items for them, or are just curious about them, then this post is for you.

Dolls So Beautiful has been a fairly small group (in the lower hundreds in comparison to the higher hundreds or even more of big groups), but we're ready to share with you and I think you'll love it here. So here's your invite:

My website has moved

Instead of being .weebly.com, it's back to being edenslittleones.com but now it is hosted somewhere else, and so has a new look :) Check it out if you get a minute

New plan

Website Translation Widget

ok, I started the twins and then just lost interest. I think it's because twins take so much longer and so they take a lot of patience. Also I was getting a little... not really frustrated, but just losing interest and the joy of it... because, even though they are twin sculpts, my mind sees them going in different directions and I find myself wanting to paint them differently. And so, since they are not customs and I can create them however I please, I'm going to. No longer will they be twins, but two babies, and I have no idea of the final outcome. I'm going to create the awake one first, simply because he/she is the one currently on my desk and ready for another paint wash.

I'll keep you all updated! :)

Hello 2012

Website Translation Widget Happy New Year everyone! It's now 2012! I made 10 +? babies in 2011, which isn't bad considering I'm working full time and have a family. I know 10 for sure, but the other two I'm not sure if I did after Christmas or right before, so it might have been 12. The first baby was too long ago to remember, but the last baby of this year was Kirabo. The first babies of this year will be tied, since I am starting a set of twins :) Pictures to come in a day or two!

New logo!

Website Translation Widget I have a new logo! I liked my old logo a lot, but it was using pictures of someone's real babies and over time I began to want my logo to show my art. Here is my old logo:

It has stars and a moon (my previous theme), shows that I do various ethnicities of babies, and is sparkly and pretty - everything I wanted at the time. But as I've been growing in my art, I've starting wanting a logo that showed my work and is all me. However, I don't have the skills or know-how to do that, so I only had 5 pictures and a vision in my head. In desperation I posted on Facebook and a friend hooked me up! She's going to take a little more of the top of the blue hood on the left, but here it is:

These are all babies I have made, my art for my logo :) I love it! Next up on the agenda is some new business cards and birth certificates using my new logo lol

Toddler is finally done!!

Here she is, my first toddler. I'm naming her Natasha, and she was just finished today. She was created from the Tibby sculpt by Donna RuBert.
