CAUTION: These dolls are NOT toys. They contain small parts that pose a choking hazard to small children. Please do NOT leave children unsupervised with these dolls.
These are custom, hand-made dolls. They are made from a knit (doll skin) fabric & come in 4 colors. The ‘joints’ are made with metal buttons, plastic buttons or a combination. Most of the dolls have a fleece insert & all dolls are filled with a combination of new materials: fiber fill, plastic doll pellets & metal bb’s. The faces can be painted, sculpted or left blank. Click on doll photos & options to see the different faces! If you have someone else paint a face on your doll, please have them use acrylic paints.
Please only spot wash dolls as the metal parts may rust, (baby wipes work well to spot wash).
Every doll comes with:
· a diaper (size that best fits the doll)
· a soft fleece hat (you choose the color & type: see doll photos & options for the different types of hats)
· a doll tag (see FAQ for a description of a doll tag)
· a ‘birth certificate’ (for you to fill out). The ‘birth certificate’ is a keepsake & it is not a legal document.
Skin Color Choices:
These color samples are photos, so the color may vary depending on your monitor. If you are unsure of what color to choose, please contact us for fabric samples before you order.

Most of these dolls feel heavier than they look. Like a child that is asleep, still born or died after birth.
**Not all dolls ordered as 'Real' weight will feel heavier than they look, as some babies
are less dense than other babies & the doll may feel the size it looks.
