Brianna arrived in our nursery as a 20-inch Berenguer LaBaby doll. There we showered her with love and attention to transform her into a beautiful lifelike
baby.
First, Brianna was given a warm, sudsy bath to create a clean, even surface. Then she was dyed with a
combination of rosy dyes to give her skin new life. Her skin was blushed and shaded with oil-based
colors that soak in, so they don’t require a sealant and blend into her skin tone naturally. Each crease
and roll was given special attention.
Every tiny part of Brianna was cared for. She was given downy baby brows to frame her sleepy eyes,
and delicate lashes to perfectly match her hair were carefully rooted and secured from the inside of her head.
Her tiny finger and toenails were shaded and given the finest of ivory tips,
then double-sealed with a chip-resistant semi-gloss finish. Brianna’s nose was opened and backed with felt for depth.
Brianna was reassembled with a jointed cloth body. Each limb is weighted with poly pellets, and her body is weighted with both sand and poly pellets, so she will
feel like a real baby in your arms. Fluffy fiberfill in the limbs and body make her snuggly soft.
Brianna's hands and feet were weighted with sand and sealed with silicone. Her head is weighted with poly pellets and will now need support when you hold her.
Brianna was given extra-special realistic baby hair. All her paint hair was removed; then three shades of soft mohair were chosen to make the most realistic combination of highlights and lowlights. The hair is rooted follicle by tiny follice and gently conditioned for extra softness, so it feels like a real baby's when you cradle Brianna's little head in your hand.
Briana's hair was sculpted to frame her peaceful, sleeping face and precious little ears. The hair was sealed from the inside with strong, clear glue, so you can wet, gently brush and style it to your heart's content.
You can even curl it with a warm curling iron.
Brianna is dressed for the pictures in a disposable diaper and newborn size outfit (not included). I tried several outfits on her, and this newborn size fit her the best.
Brianna has been reborn from a child's toy to an adult's collectible. She is
not suitable for rough play.
