Hello, we are Dawn & Stacey the creators of Little Born Miracles. We are stay at home moms who first discovered reborn dolls while surfing E-bay. We fell in love with them and decided to do some research and create them for ourselves. They turned out amazing (we gave our first ones to our daughters). We got such a great response from family and friends we decided to make more. We have sold them at nursing homes (the senior citizens fell in love with them it was such a good feeling to see their faces light up when holding them), craft fairs, E-bay and some stores carry our dolls. We decided to create a site so other people could enjoy them. That is how our Little Born Miracles site was created.

The original vinyl doll is taken apart and given a baby bubble bath. All original coloring is taken off and prepared for painting. They are then painted inside and out (with a variety of colors) to give them the real flesh tone of babies. They are then blushed on the outside, every wrinkle and feature to give them that real baby look . We replace the original factory eyes with high quality realistic eyes. They are then given a cloth body stuffed and weighted to feel like a real baby. They are given a baby manicure with tiny white tips on their little hands and tiny toes . Very wispy eyebrows are painted on and then wispy eyelashes are applied. Then they are given a high quality, very soft wig that feels just like baby hair. It can be styled and brushed. Mouths are then tinted and sealed. Their noses are opened very gently so that they can take their very first breath and then they are diapered and dressed (clothes can be changed (0 to 3) months will fit most of the babies). This is just a broad overview of the process. Each baby is made with hours of patience, time and dedication. They truly are Little Born Miracles. Remember these babies are not made as play dolls for little children. They are really for grown ups. The dolls we have made for our children have held up and withstood hours and hours of play by our 3/4 year olds but it is not recommended. Our babies need gentle handling and lots of love, just like a real baby. We guarantee you will love to hold and cuddle these Little Born Miracles and they will bring you much joy.
