Reborning Progress

This post is a continuation of my previous post about the process of reborning dolls, so you might want to scroll down and read that post first. I just wanted to show you the progress I have made with my baby. Remember this is my first try and I'm using a cheaper  " make do " method  :)

Doll...as I found her.

After removing her clothes.........

Then after detaching her body........

Body parts, washed, painted , and now hanging to dry.....I know, a little creepy..right?

My poor home still hasn't got its paint job :(

Head has been washed and now has its first coat of paint applied.

Now here it is after much painting...I even painted the hair on this one. The redness is newborn baby splotches, or stork bites as some call them. I see her lips are to dark, I'll be lightening them up some later.
So what do you think?

Next, I'll be working on sewing her body and reassembling her. I'm having fun with this project. Loving it as a matter of fact....I'm ready to go out and find me some more orphaned babies and reborn them as well. I am hoping I'll get better each time. Today is my birthday, a sweet young friend made me homemade snicker doodle cookies, ( notice the baggie on the right in picture) they are yummy too :)   Happy Birthday to me !  Blessings dear friends
