Berenguer Babies

Berenguer have been designing dolls for over 60 years and have a very large range of reborns. They produce very high quality life-like dolls that are a joy to hold. Once you have picked one up you will find it very hard to put it down again, it will be so real.
Jose Berenguer began designing dolls in 1944 and his son, Salvador Berenguer, followed on from his father and by 1967 was designing dolls too and still has major input into the artistic direction of the sculpting of all the dolls they produce.
He is remarkably creative and strives for perfection in every doll he designs.

Teach Yourself Reborn Artistry

Reborn artistry is not something you are born knowing about because it is a fairly new subject. Like most things, you need to learn how to do it. The easiest way, apart from having your own private tutor on hand all day, is to buy a book or two and follow the instructions at your own pace.

When you buy an ordinary book you have to wait quite a few days till it arrives and that can be very frustrating. An ebook on the other hand is very easy to buy, it just needs downloading to your computer so there is no waiting. The time it takes depends only on the speed of your internet link and then you can get started immediately.

There are ebooks on almost everything you could possibly need to know about reborning – how to join up the arms and legs to the body, how to apply the hair, how to insert the eyes, how to make the skin colour look the way you want it to, etc.

Don’t wait till tomorrow, get started today.

Lifelike Dolls Magazine

I have always been addicted to house magazines which show you how other people make their houses look like homes or like picture postcards, or even in a lot of cases, like something out of a film set.  I like to pick bits from here, and bits from there and add them together to try and make my own style. I have never consciously put into practice what I have learnt but I do enjoy dreaming of what my ideal home would be like and I guess some of the information has rubbed off on me over the years.

Lifelike Dolls magazine is like that. It has a little bit of this, a little bit of that, and a whole lot of the necessary information required to make or collect the items for a beautiful reborn doll. If you are an experienced reborner or collector you could submit photos or an article of your successes and your failures (I am sure there are some that you are not quite so happy about).  If you are new to the art, all the information you could possibly require is here in these pages.

Perhaps you are having trouble rooting the hair onto your doll or once it is in place you really do not know how to cut it so it looks really natural.  I mean, face it, wool strands that have been sewn onto a vinyl head are hardly likely to look like a little baby’s hair are they?  Something has to be done to make it look more natural.  All the info is here at your fingertips.

You can ask questions and receive answers to them, pick up patterns of clothing to dress your doll in and there are tips galore.  If you want to go to a doll show to see other people’s work on display, the dates and venues will be in this magazine.

There are step by step tutorials about almost any subject relating to doll making and collecting.

Really, it is a marvel, and if there is something you want to be in it but cannot find, let them know and they will do their utmost to include that subject in a future issue.  Lifelike Dolls Magazine is a magazine about reborning and sculpting and is published every second month. They accept articles, photos, etc. from reborn artists, sculptors, collectors and writers from anywhere in the world.  A reborn doll made in New Zealand for example follows much the same form as one made in Scandinavia so it matters not where you live, all the information is here at your fingertips or you can submit your information for the benefit of everyone else.

And if you want a bit of relaxation, there are loads of puzzles and things to do included in every issue.

Reborning – Is it a Good Thing?

If you’re not familiar with the term “reborning” then you have probably not been exposed to one of the most amazing types of doll baby ever created. While most dolls have some similar features to a living human infant, a high quality reborn doll is strikingly life-like. People are frequently fooled when they see one of these dolls being pushed in a stroller or being buckled into a car seat by their “mothers.” But the question isn’t whether or not these very real baby dolls are going to fool someone, instead the question is whether or not they are good for the person who purchases them.

Advantages of the Reborn Baby

Women purchase these dolls for many reasons. Some women simply love collecting dolls and find the life-like quality of these reborn baby dolls to be irresistible despite their price tag. These collectors sometimes have dozens of the dolls in their homes. And it’s easy to do that because each doll can be custom-made with the features you want. You can have the eyes open, you can choose hair types, and you can even choose the baby’s weight. Birth marks can be added and so can a breathing feature which, as you might imagine, adds to the doll’s realism. Unlike mass produced dolls, these exquisite babies are each unique and one-of-a-kind just like a real child.

Another advantage of the reborn baby is that its realism can help some women get through difficult times. Women who have lost children or who have been unable to conceive can sometimes find solace in owning one of these beautiful dolls. Because they can be created to your specifications, some women have brought in photographs of their deceased children as infants to have their likeness captured on the doll. In these cases, the dolls can help the women get through the grieving process or the depression that comes with not being able to have your own children.

Because of the reborn doll’s cost, these are not usually appropriate for children. However, some parents have purchased them for their children as a very special gift.

Disadvantages of the Reborn Doll

Despite the advantages and benefits people receive from these very unique dolls, there are some drawbacks. Of course, price is one of the biggest. Because they are custom-made from very high quality materials, the price reflects this reality. However, the price does mean some people simply won’t be able to afford them.

Another potential drawback is that some people can get too involved in the baby’s realism. Some of the women who have purchased the dolls become very obsessive about them and treat them as if they were real children. While that may not be a bad thing on a temporary basis, it can become a serious problem if it goes on for too long. Thankfully, this is not a common occurrence but it can happen, especially for women who are using the dolls to help them cope with loss.

Berenguer Collectibles

When it comes to Berenguer dolls, there is nothing better or more special than for them to serve as collectible masterpieces. Anyone who enjoys collecting reborn babies would love to have more of the reborn dolls in their collection. If you or someone you know is in the market for a reborn baby from a Berenguer doll then you already know that you are not looking for a cheap baby doll. Since so much time, effort, and talent goes into each and every one of the Berenguer dolls, it is important to remember that these reborn babies are no longer toys no matter how much they look like they need cuddled.

Dolls By Berenguer 410 Little Princess Baby Doll - Size 18 Inch

Dolls By Berenguer 410 Little Princess Baby Doll - Size 18 Inch
A reborn doll is one that is created by an artist who handcrafts every part of the doll to make it as close to real life as possible. Not only are these dolls crafted to look as though they are a real life baby but they are made to feel that way too. Know that you are going to be receiving a reborn doll from someone who has spent a long time practicing the craft, which means that your specially crafted Berenguer doll is going to be of excellent quality and will be one of a kind. No reborn baby is the same, which makes you realize that these are truly something special to be collected.

Many artists will include some extras along with the reborn babies upon purchase. The typical things that are given as special gifts can sometimes include blankets, birth certificates, diapers, toys, pacifiers, and various other things. It will really depend on the artist, the Berenguer doll that is created, and what is available at the time of purchase. Just make sure that you are getting your reborn dolls from an artist that is experienced and it really will not matter what extras you receive, if any, as you will fall completely in love with the reborn doll and nothing else will matter at the moment.

You want to make sure that when you purchase your Berenguer dolls that you are shopping on a secure site. This is because there is never a reason to risk your financial security and personal information. Trust and know that the site you are dealing with is going to only give you the reborn baby you purchased and no trouble attached with it. Even though there are various artists who work on creating the reborn babies, know that they all are a part of a satisfaction guarantee, which means you can usually get your money back if you are unsatisfied. You would of course, have to return the Berenguer doll in the same condition that you received it in.

One thing to keep in mind is that once you begin collecting the reborn babies, you may not be able to stop. While these are not the most expensive things in the world that you could possibly be collecting, the prices can easily add up over time which means that you will want to be careful and start off with the reborn dolls that you absolutely cannot live without. After those are purchased, you can continue from there and build yourself a collection that you can enjoy for many years to come and even pass on to family later down the line.

Dolls Hair – What Are The Choices?

A reborn doll requires a good head of hair to make it look realistic. Although lots of babies do not have much hair when they are born, there is usually at least some there, so depending on what age you want your doll to be would depend on how much hair you root onto your doll. Each strand of hair needs to be individually rooted into the scalp. This is done by the means of a special needle which loops the hair into the scalp and then out again. There are lots of books and videos available to see how this is done.

Join The Pitchy Patch Market

The choices for hair are fairly limited with mohair being the most favored as it’s texture is fairly close to human hair texture. Viscose is also used. Viscose is a natural plant fiber that is sort of like rayon.

Of course color and texture play a big part in your choice of product to make your doll’s hair with e.g. it is no use using a crepe fiber, which is curly, if you want your doll to look Chinese, who nearly all have straight hair. A light skinned doll is not going to have black hair, a dark skinned one would look weird in blond hair.

Reborn Kits & Supplies – Getting Started

I am planning on making my own reborn doll and need to know where to get all the parts and bits and pieces that make up any well made doll. I have looked on the internet and found lots of things but I wanted just one place where I could go and find nearly everything in one place. Hence I have made this site to give me, and you, all the information needed. It will take time to grow as I find out more and more information.

First of all you need a body, head, legs and arms. There is such a wide choice of designs that it is hard to decide which style to make. I have decided that my doll will be about 6 months old. By that age babies are easier to handle, you do not have to hold the back of their heads all the time and they are not quite so fragile. I must admit I am a little scared of newborn babies. They rely on us for everything. Well, all babies do to some extent but once they pass the 6 month stage they are at least able to hold themselves up a bit and can be left on the floor for a while. If you would rather have a soft, cuddly, gorgeous, newborn, then that is your choice.

Once you have got the body pieces you need to do some serious coloring of them. A baby’s skin has many different hues and a lot of care has to be taken to get the right mix of colors. We want the skin to look real and this takes many layers of paint to get the right effect. Just like a painter of pictures, many layers allows the differing shades to show through each other. Sometimes reborn artists paint a dark color on the inside of parts to give a more realistic veined look but this can lead to what looks like bruising as the color can work its way up through the vinyl.

Once the painting is finished to satisfaction, the doll needs weighting to make it feel more realistic. This is done by adding various products into each part to get them to the right weight comparable to their age and size.

Hair is usually mohair that is planted into the head by the use of a special needle. Each strand is implanted separately and how natural the hair will look when finished depends on the ratio of strands to the inch. It is quite a time consuming task to make the hair but a very rewarding one. With practice you will get a lot faster.

Obviously dolls are clothed and the clothes can either be handmade yourself or if the doll is really life-size then baby clothes will suffice. Some dolls have magnets put inside their mouths so that a dummy/pacifier can be inserted when needed and it will not fall out.

Really what you do to your doll is entirely up to you and what effect you wish to achieve. Whatever method you use, I hope you are happy with the result and a beautiful baby doll is born.

Doll Makers

Doll makers are people, either professional or just ordinary people at home, who make a doll. These days it is relatively easy to make a doll as the internet provides all the things required to do so.

There are places to buy the bodies, the eyes, the sucking mouths, the arms, legs, clothes, etc. There are forums to talk to other people who are also interested in the same hobby.

There are directories that tell you where to buy anything you want so you can make your doll as beautiful as you could possibly dream.

Whether you be a professional or amateur, the design and making of a doll is a unique experience.

Dolls Houses – Does a Reborn Need One?

A dolls house is an essential part of the life of any doll unless it is a reborn doll in which case it will live in the big house with its owner just as if it was a baby. Any other doll really needs a home to be able to function properly in a little girl’s (or boy’s) life. They can be made of any material that is available but usually they are made of wood.

They come in as many different styles are there are different styles of house in the world. Some are big, some small, some one storey, some two or more, tiled roof or aluminum roof, carpeted floors or tiled, etc. You think of something that is in a real house and it can be in a dolls one too.

But our website is about reborn dolls so we do not need a dolls house. Our babies live in the real world with real people. OK, maybe they are put in a corner to decorate a room because the owner thinks it is a nice feature, or they are in a glass cabinet as a display collectible, but normally they are brought up just like other babies.

They are fed, watered, put to bed read stories to, loved and cared for. Nearly everything they need can already be found in the house.

Dolls Beds – My First One

A dolls bed is a must for any self respecting baby doll. When I was a little girl I had a wooden bed that my walking, talking, beautiful doll was able to lie in full length. It was wonderful. 

My dad spent hours making it after I had gone to bed at night so I did not know anything about it until Christmas Day when in my stocking there was an envelope containing a piece of paper which had a clue in it on where I could find the next clue. Luckily there were only about 4 of these envelopes spread around the house. If there had been any more I think I would have died of curiosity and frustration. Anyway, I finally ended up out in the tent that had been erected in our back garden (this was in New Zealand so Christmas is in summer). Sitting up against one of the tent poles was the most beautiful doll you have ever seen and beside her was this gorgeous bed. I hardly saw the bed to start with though as I was too transfixed with the doll.

A few years later, after I had spent many long hours playing with her, my family was sent to Fiji to live. My mother gave my doll to a friend to look after till we returned 3 years later. When we finally returned 5 years later instead of the proposed 3, the lady who had been given the care of my doll told me she had given it and the bed away to someone who needed it more than I did now that I was grown up.

Well, you can imagine how I felt at that news. I was devastated. I have never gotten over it and I am now nearly 60.

Dolls Clothing – What is Needed?

Can you imagine a little baby doll dressed in a soft lemon colored cashmere dress with a ribbon threaded through the neck and underneath it a cream, silk petticoat? Little socks and shoes on her pretty little feet, a ribbon in her hair. Wouldn’t she look absolutely divine?

Yes, OK perhaps that is going a bit overboard, and a bit pricey too I would think. But you can get the same look with ordinary wool, cotton and polyester these days.

There are many places to purchase your articles of clothing for that little precious being. Some stores sell everything from top to toe, others specialize in certain articles.

Perhaps you need a pattern to knit an Arran cardigan for the winter, or perhaps a pair of bootees. Would Grandma knit them for you if you got her the pattern and the wool? I am sure she would.
Shoes, not high heels, she would never be able to walk in those, that is if she is even walking at all yet, but certainly little black patent shoes and white socks on her feet would look lovely whether she is already walking or not. Maybe even some sneakers to make her look trendy. Feet do get cold if left to hang outside the blanket in the pram.
