A Full Crib

Right now it seems that most reborn artist are in a lull, including me. After getting used to my babies selling so quickly, it seems strange having a crib full. I suppose most are choosing vacations over reborns - go figure ;)
I belong to a couple of reborn forums and everyone is saying the same - very few sales this month. Of course Christmas is 6 months away and more than likely it will pick up again by early September and maybe even August. The last 3 months of 2016 my babies were practically flying out of here. 

I have adopted out 6 this month (June) so I am not complaining. Three of those were layaways but they still count. 
These are babies that have been adopted out -

Joseph

Gena

Amber

Harper

Then there are those still waiting -

Sleeping Kimberly

Blog Name Change

Oops...I did it again. I went and changed my blog name. 
I have been It's Me Again, Pamela for a long time - but it was time for a change. 

So - how did I come up with Pittypat's Reborn Nursery?

Pittypat Hamilton has been a favorite character name from one of my all time favorite movies for over 25 years. Gone With The Wind. Aunt Pittypat was Scarlett O'Hara's aunt by marriage and Melanie's aunt, as well. She was a roly poly woman with white ringlet curls. Always about to faint and needing her smelling salts. lol Anyway, the name has always been special to me. 
When I first got into computer games, virtual places, chat rooms, etc. Pittypat was always my username. So naturally when I was looking for a name for my Reborn Nursery - Pittypat just sounded perfect.

Reborns: With or Without Hair

So now I have had Reborn babies with hair and without. The first one with hair was Lucy who had the wild frizzy kinky curls and no, I didn't like them at all. Too much upkeep.

Benjamin has painted hair and I do love it. It looks pretty natural. 

Sally Jane is totally bald and  I think that is just cute. 

Paisley Grace will be bald if she ever gets here!

And now I have Jackson - he came with wild  blonde hair and I cropped it short so he is close to bald.

Honestly - I prefer no hair at all or painted on hair. Jackson's is ok - now that it is short. It looks more natural. 

I have seen so many Reborns with pitiful hair but I have seen some that really look good. If an artist knows what they are doing when rooting hair and they use the appropriate type of hair then it most likely will look natural. These artist that use the frizzy stuff (I have no idea what it is) it just looks silly, in my opinion. 
I have seen some that have the little curl at the top like a kewpie doll and those are truly sweet looking. I have seen some that are all nice and even and swirl around on the crown and those look adorable. But the ones that look like Chuckie - just ew! 

So - my preference would still have to be no hair. It is just easier, neater and most of the time - more realistic. 

Reborn Magnetic Pacifiers

It seems my pacifier collection has grown quite fast! Actually I have most of these up for sale. I especially like the bejeweled ones, but so far Mickey Mouse has been my top seller. 

I found this picture at Hobby Lobby and thought it would be a perfect way to organize my paci lot and I just added the hooks. 

If you look closely, you will see an adorable crocheted white pacifier, which I did not make, but would love to learn how. I bought that one on Etsy. Very sweet looking.

I am always on the look out for really cute pacifiers. 

Brotherly~Sisterly Love

They are so much fun to dress up and pose together for photos. When Paisley Grace gets here it will be triple the fun! I am going to start on my first Reborn kit next week - I haven't decided if it will be a boy or a girl or if I am even keeping them or not - if I do a really good job, I may not be able to give them up, but if I don't do well enough to make a nice profit, then no point in selling. 

Benjamin is a chunk compared to Sally Jane.

She is so petite~

They just look so stinkin' cute together!

My First Reborn Surprise Shower Gift Box Is Ready to Ship

I was so excited to be able to make up my first surprise gift box! This one is for a Reborn baby boy - and his name happens to be Tucker - the same name as my grandson. I didn't have time to personalize anything because she needed it shipped right away.

So - what am I surprise her with?

All My Reborn Children

I just started a new Facebook page called All My Reborn Children  and am hoping to post daily pictures of my babies and grow a following outside of Instagram, my blog and YouTube videos. I love being a part of the Reborn Community and so many people know little to nothing about Reborns and how they can be therapeutic so its just another way to reach and teach.

If you visit, please like & share! Comment & add your own photos. Thank you!!

Lucy Claire Has Arrived!

She's here!  Lucy Claire arrived today in a huge heavy box filled with cute clothes, headbands, shoes, blanket, bracelets, paci and I couldn't be more thrilled.

In her original photos she looked like she had kinky reddish blonde hair, but it is pretty wild in real life and very blonde. We will have to do something with that hair! You can see her original pictures here .

I have already changed her into something that I bought for her. She is wearing her little red bracelet which was sent with her - she also has a blue one. Very cute! She has a pretty big wardrobe since she came with so much and I had already shopped for her. These photos show what she arrived with.

She is very much lighter skin than Benjamin, but, remember, Benjamin is a boo boo Reborn, so his skin coloring is a little "off".

You can see the difference is size. She is 9 pounds and he is 5 1/2. He is 19 inches long and she is 23 but he looks much smaller to me. He looks like the newborn he is and she is more around 6 months old.

She is a hefty little heifer!

I e-mailed with the lady who made her and she told me all I had to do was spritz her hair with water and the curls would jump back in, which I did and they did. Much cuter.

The Fun of Dressing Baby (Reborn)

Oh, the fun of dressing up a Reborn Baby!

Such cute clothes!

I don't think my son had as many cute clothes 36 years ago when he was a newborn.
