Reborn Dolls are life like dolls that are carefully handcrafted by various artisans using multiple techniques.
The art of reborning is not just about painting a doll, in fact, the artists take a great deal of time and effort to produce realistic features.
Some of these techniques include carefully rooting delicate eyelashes one by one, blending paint for the face and limbs to produce various skin tones and blemishes, adding weights for a realistic feel and much more.
They also take the time to carefully choose a name and bundle them up in the perfect outfit. These dolls don't go in a box either once they are finished.
Most artists set aside a special place to display their babies. Some are in their own crib. Artists go to great lengths to create these dolls and also to care for them.
They pay great attention to detail and study their subject matter immensely. Reborn dolls are not cheap, however, the artists do spend a lot of money creating these dolls, I mean thousands.
