Welcome, I am Donna, the artist at Baby To Love Nursery. Two of my many loves are portrait painting and collecting dolls. I am blessed to combine these two passions in the art of creating reborn babies. Each baby is a personal masterpiece and signed by me on its petite bottom. I collect many forms of art and continue to collect babies from other artists as I create my own. My babies have been adopted by mommies in Canada, England, France, Ireland and the United States. I am very grateful to have repeat buyers. Thank you to those who have purchased from me and those who come to visit this new beautiful baby girl.

DONNA LYNN
APRIL 8, 2008
APPROX 4 LBS
19 INCHES
Donna Lynn began as an Esther Kallouz "Cutie Pie" kit. She is #36 of only 300 available worldwide. I am grateful to have such a wonderful sculpt to work with. Thank you Esther! Donna Lynn is a life size baby with 3/4 arms and legs and a doe suede body in perfect proportion for her size. I began reborning her with a warm bubble bath to remove any residue from her head and limbs. After a thorough towel dry I began the painting process using genesis heat set paints. I spent several days applying layer upon layer heat setting after each application. Once completely satisfied with her coloring I added light veining, blushing and attention to all creases and folds to ensure the most realistic skin tones. For Donna Lynn I chose a natural mottled/blotchy baby complexion with a little roseyness. Her coloring resembles that of a baby only a few days old. Genesis heat set paints are permanent and will not rub off or fade. Donna Lynn was a joy to reborn and not complete until she melted my heart. I hope she melts yours too!

Donna Lynn's eyebrows have been hand painted and her eyelashes rooted with the same premium mohair I used for her hair. I also added permanent moisture to the corner of each eye. Her nostrils have been painted for a realistic look with permanent moisture applied here as well. Donna Lynn's lips have been delicately painted, with a light blush color, glazed and sealed with a matt varnish. They also have been heat set and will not chip or peel.





Donna Lynn's head, body and limbs have been filled with contained tiny glass beads surrounded by fiber fil. She has a realistic baby weight and snuggles in your arms just like a real baby. You'll want to cuddle her for hours.

Donna Lynn's hair has been rooted with a light blonde premium mohair from Slumberland Nursery, approximately one to two hairs at a time using a 42 g rooting needle. Her hair has been trimmed leaving the ends whispy to give her an uncut new born baby 'do'. It has been conditioned with "Angels Touch Nursery" spray conditioner and sealed inside with a waterproof sealant. It can be gently brushed and styled. Some minimal shedding is to be expected.


I have given Donna Lynn a baby manicure and pedicure. Her nails have been tipped and sealed with genesis heat set paints and glaze for a realistic "just clipped look".


Donna Lynn will arrive in her little smocked/embroidered white dress and bloomers, with white crochet blanket, sleepers, hair bow, white sweater set with hat and booties, onesie, pamper, pink teddy, pacifer and instruction sheet.
