Frequently Asked Questions
Most frequent questions and answers
Do you make silicone babies?
Currently we only paint using very soft vinyl dolls with fabric doe suede bodies. Our dolls are weighted perfectly to not only look like a real baby but feel and snuggle like a real baby would. However, we will be offering FBS miniature babies in addition to partial silicone and silicone cuddle babies soon! Watch for updates to come!
Do you offer custom made dolls?
Yes, you can reserve your custom slot with a $150 non-refundable deposit to lock in your slot, that would be deducted from your total balance owed once completed. More information can be found in the “services” tab or you can email us and we will be happy to get back to you.
How much are your dolls?
My dolls start at $550. Prices and expectations would be discussed during the initial consultation. Every doll is different. Things kept in consideration when determining pricing depends on: the sculpt used- limited edition, open edition, sold out edition or if we use a realborn kit vs. a sculpt, size- preemie, newborn, older baby, toddler, weight of the baby, will the baby have- rooted or painted hair?, amount of details and time put into creating your perfect baby, costs of over all materials…
Can you make a doll look like my baby?
Yes, I offer memorial and portrait dolls. These dolls are created using multiple images of the real baby in helping to determine the best sculpt/kit to use in addition to help capture the best likeness as possible.
How long does it take to make a doll?
On average it can take anywhere between 6-8 weeks to paint a doll and another 4-6 weeks to root a doll. I put in upwards of 500 hours working on just one doll to make it perfect. I do not guarantee a completion date as every doll is different depending on what we are doing to create your custom baby and current work load.
Do you have any dolls ready to ship?
As dolls are completed they are posted in our store menu under “Available Reborns”.
We are always working on creating our dolls including ready to ship babies. If non are available at the time make sure to subscribe to our mailing list to get notified as they become available.
Do you offer rooting services?
Yes, dolls I have created can be upgraded to rooted babies at an additional cost. I do not however, offer services on another artist’s work.
Do you do repairs, re-paint or re-root someone else's work?
No, due to the nature of not knowing what type of paint or supplies were used originally, I do not do services on another artist’s work as not all paints are compatible with each other.
I am however, able to offer services at an additional cost for clients that has had a doll made by me for them.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, we offer up to a 60 day payment plan.
The total cost would be divided into three equal payments The first payment being the non-refundable deposit paid at the time you book your custom slot. The remaining two payments would be due on the 1st of the month for the next two consecutive months with the shipping being added to the final payment, once the baby is completed.
Do you offer international shipping?
Yes, we do offer international shipping. Our dolls would be charged shipping costs based upon weight and size. Customers are responsible for any fees incurred for shipping, customs, port or tax fees of their country.
Are you able to do a custom on a sculpt/kit (unpainted) I already own?
No, I do not work on sculpts/kits I did not originally order, due to the rise in fake, counterfeit or illegally copied sculpts/kits.
I order all our sculpts/kits directly from our sculptors or only use verified and reputable distributors to ensure our sculpts/kits are 100% authentic.
