Larger dolls and some special edition/limited edition dolls will be priced higher according to weight, size, and extra time required to complete. Please contact me for a quote and time frame.

All of my 'babies' come standard with single outfit, onesie, diaper, blanket, soother, and birth certificate ( name chosen by yourself).

** I do Require a non-refundable deposit of $300.00 for security per doll before beginning work or ordering sculpts etc. (average sized doll, larger dolls or dolls that require a lot of intricate detail such as customized outfits will require a $350.00 deposit)

The Deposit is applied top the final price and is non refundable and non transerrable ( please see my 'Terms and conditions' Page)

I take the deposit before doing ANY work on the doll ( including searches for portrait 'babies') or ordering any materials. In the case of a portrait baby ( one that has to resemble a photograph), if  you feel that we cannot agree on a close enough match, AND no final decision have been made or materials purchased, then I will refund the TOTAL deposit.**THIS IS THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO MY POLICY with regards to the deposit being non-refundable**

Decisions must be made within 2weeks of paying deposit, or price changes may be put into effect, also changes to completion dates and deposits may be foreited.

The balance will be due on completion at which time I will send pictures and request payment. I do take layaway payments ( If this is required please discuss at time of plcing your order). Your 'baby' will ship when payment is received in full.

I take orders on a first come first served basis with the order and deposit. Once I receive your order and we have agreed a sculpt and final price, I will let you know what time frame you will be looking at for your completed 'baby'. Time frame will depend on the volume of orders already received/booked etc. I allow myself 2-4 weeks for each custom order so as not to compromise quality. Extra time will be required for 'twins' and some 'babies' requiring extra detail....etc such as custom or elaborate outfits and accessories etc.

NO 'baby' will be duplicated, once a doll is 'adopted'  there will never be another exactly the same. I never use the exact same technique twice which keeps by 'babies' as individual and unique as a real baby so you can be assured that your 'baby' is a one of a kind in it's own rights, although there may be similarities to another especially if the same sculpt has been used.

 

**If you are looking to have a doll made to look like a photograph, I spend many hours searching fo ra sculpt that most closely resembles the baby's features in the picture. I will send you sggestions for your 'baby' and TOGETHER we will decide which one you would be most happy with. Please remember that I will be choosing from someone elses sculpts and that it may not duplicate 100% your baby, some compromises have to be made. The ONLY way to have an EXACT match is of course to have a mold sculpted from YOUR picture ( which I don't do).

I do also do my best to match as closely as possible skin tones, hair color and 'styles' etc.

When the 'baby' is complete it will resemble as close as possible the baby you are trying to 'replicate'.**

Descriptions of 'Extras'

Voice Boxes- Small unit that sits inside a pocket inside the body which makes an appropriate sound (for 8-10 seconds) for the 'baby'.

Heart beat Units- small unit that sits inside a pocket in the doll's body to similatethe sound and feel of a baby heart beat.

Body and belly plates- you will see samples pictured above with prices. FFor posing purposes. You may need to drape clothing or blankets to disguise fabric at the tops of limbs etc as these accessories sit or wrap around the fabric body .

Spine- This is just what it sound like. It is flaxible and is sewn into the back of the doll's body. It may give very little support and is mainly or effect, if you run your hand down 'babies' back you will feel the little vertabrae. It is completely flexible.

Squishy Baby fat inserts- Silicone insert that sits INSIDE the fabric body to give a firmer yet squishy more realistic feel to 'baby's' tummy.

Breathing mechanism- Unit sits inside doll body to similate braething motion as chest rises and falls.

Heat Packs- Small pocket filled with a solution that warms when a little disc inside is cracked. Can be recharged by placing in hot water. Sits in a pocket on 'baby's belly to give feeling of warmth.
