I just finished my first reborn, a sleeping baby, and am really happy with it! I used your rooting video for the hair and now I have an awake kit arriving any day so will be using this tutorial for inserting its eyes. You manage to show inside the head what a lot of other tutorials can't quite seem to capture (awkward angle after all!). Thank you! Xxxx
I know Im randomly asking but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Rowen Asher I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
I'd like to start reborning late this year or early next year. I couldn't find a good channel with tutorials until I came across yours! I will definitely be following your tutorials through my first reborn. Thanks so much!
Though this video was made over 5 years ago, this is still the best tutorial on TH-cam for first time reborn makers, like me! I still don't know if I am going to actually make one, but if I do I will certainly come to this channel for a tutorial.
What an amazing reborning tutorial series - best I’ve ever seen. Almost feels like a cheat to be watching this for free. Thanks so much and many blessings over your life and art.
You are awesome. I have tried making a reborn doll with instructions and came out okay but your videos are so exact. I am glad I just found you and will be ordering the kit to follow along with you. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for all your videos I’m so excited to start my first doll hopefully as a gift for my daughter if all goes well. A lot of the starter kits are out of stock so do you have a list of genesis paint colors that you recommended purchasing to get started I tried to go back thru all of your videos and make a list but I want to make sure I haven’t missed any! Thanks so much!!
I would like to know how to get the neck ring on. I bought the size the kit calls for. This is my first reborn and I have been watching your videos as I paint. Thank you for showing how to do these babies. I would be lost without you!!
Hello. Thank you so, so much for taking your time to make these tutorials! My daughter just got custody of my great, great niece and nephews that have been in foster care almost 2 years. It took that long to get the parental rights removed. Anyway, I had ordered a reborn kit several years ago and never got around to doing it and now am able to do it as a project with this sweet little girl that we have been so blessed with. Could you please tell me the size of the eyes you are using. I couldn't quite hear you. Thank you so much
Hi. I'm going to follow your full tutorial as I paint my baby as I am starting in about a week or 2. As I watch tutorials, I usually get a lot of questions that pop into my head so if I could ask you those that would be awesome. I keep it strictly to reborning and thats it. My question right now is what is the exact purpose for the plugs? Would Polyfil work as a substitute so I don't have to buy plugs? I'm getting the head ring and maybe the arm and leg rings so they can turn but I want to know about the Polyfil instead of the plugs.
Thank you and welcome to the wonderful world of reborning! Plugs simply hold in the stuffing. Tightly packed Poly-Fil should be fine. Some artists glue over the opening instead of using plugs.
CustomDollBaby.com Thank you. I got everything off of Bountiful Baby and I have already started reborning. Your mottling tutorial has helped me emensly. Although, I have done 2 blue layers, 2 purples, and I even did what I call the blood red layer and I still need to do a bit more. Would that mean that my paint is too diluted so it is not showing up as well?
You're exactly right! If you can't see your mottling, you may need to add a little more paint to the thinner. Just be careful not to go too dark. They will get a little brighter after the first flesh coat.
+tanya ayala You have a valid concern. Vinyl releases fumes while it is hot. But the cooled parts and completed doll will be fine. I minimize my intake of fumes by: - Keeping the oven outside of my primary work space. A NuWave is easy to sit outside, in a garage or other well-ventilated area. - Using my oven only for dolls. Some of the chemicals evaporated from vinyl stick to the inside of the oven. When heated, they return to gaseous form and can attach to any food you've placed in the oven. So please avoid curing dolls in any oven you'd also use for cooking. With air-dry paints, there is no heating of the vinyl. However, some acrylics release ammonia and formaldehyde (think nasty nail polish smell) when they dry. So it is difficult to reborn toxin-free. But there are ways to minimize your exposure to them. Hope that helps!
Hi! I love your tutorials!! can you please tell me where can I purchase the cutting tool you used for opening the eye socket? if possible, will you send the link? Thanks!
🌞I was wondering the same thing, have you heard back regards the cutting tool? Hope reborning going ok your way, I'm slowly getting ready to give my hands a try at it☺️🐈🙏✝️ take care! 🧚
I have a question for you, I bought a kit off of eBay, and the kit didn't come with any limb plugs or a neck ring, I tried to look up the kit on the internet but because it's a limited Edition sold out kit, there are no specific details about the kit. so my question is how do I tell what ring and limb plugs I need to order?
I just tried to reverse-engineer it from a kit I have in my workshop. It appears that you measure the flange across (diameter) and add 5mm. So Summer Rain is 60mm across the flange and it takes a 65mm neck ring. Same with the plugs. Measure across the opening and add 5mm. Plugs and rings aren't too expensive, so you might get the next size up or down at the same time just in case.
I am going to start reborning in a few weeks. I love your videos. I will be using acrylic paint was just wondering if you could suggest a brand that works well especially for beginners. Thanks so much
Thanks for your note! I'm not really in a position to endorse acrylic brands, since I haven't tried them. But I have friends who like Luminaire and I know folks who enjoy Miracle Blend, if that helps.
Will we use all those paints? my mom is financing this as I get started and we don't have the money to buy a ton of paint. I'm thinking of getting like an 8 pack of genesis heat set paints off ebay because they are about 45$. would that be good enough? and with those paints that I'll be getting, could I mix them to make a good paint color for the hair? I don't know all that is in the set but there are some darker colors
Please check out my detailed paint review to help you decide what you'll need starting out: customdollbaby.com/reborn-doll-artist-tips/recommended-genesis-heat-set-paints-for-reborning You can get pretty far with the 8 pack. But I do not stick to just those colors in my videos.
Hi! i would like to get a kit. like all full limps that you can swivel or move. but dont know where i can get the good one. can you please help. thank you very much
hi, i bought from u th reborn calculator, n u said we can use it online too, right? u know in a mobile device...well i cant find the wayto use it lso no ven in the google sheet....on of my pc hve no exl so could u tell me how pls both links i got in my email have the same thing, the sheet to use it with exel....thanks

Hi it's a dee, I hope your reborning went well? Have you had a chance to start yet? I've not yet, but I really can't at moment get a few things I need to start half of the stuff I don't. Lol take care! ☺️
Hi Kim, I'm reborning with you and I've almost finished my baby ( I'll send you pictures on "did u reborn with me" ). I'm going to buy my next babies from bountiful babies but, as they don't have everything I need, please, could you suggest other sites where I can buy good items? Thank you very much for your wonderful course, I enjoy it so much!

Your channel and way of explaining is very good. The only thing is the volume of your camera is very law, could you kindly put nit louder? Thank you
I saw your videos and love them. I ordered only according to your suggestions, one concern I have is with the baking is it toxic

do plugs/rings usually come with kits or do I have to purchase them separately??
On Bountiful Baby at least they are separate. But I've seen many artists do just fine without them.
Potassuim_Cation ok thanksss
and where to buy paint thinner?
Do you have to have the plugs and ring? Where do you get them?
Most of the kits when u buy them will say optional
I have an Asher asleep that needs to be touched up and re rooted. Do you offer those services?
Thanks for asking. I'm not doing any ad hoc services at the moment, but I will certainly let you know when my schedule allows for it. :)
