Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most commonly asked questions about my reborns. Please ensure you have read through these before contacting me. 

  • Where are you located?

    I'm located in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. 

  • What are your prices?

    My reborns generally range from $850 - $1600AUD + Postage, if required.
    Mini or small reborns may be cheaper and larger reborns or toddlers may be more expensive.
    Prototypes are prices separately.

  • Do you have any available reborns?

    If there are no reborns listed for sale on my website, then I do not have any available reborns at this time. Please check my facebook and Instagram for "available" up coming sculpts. Any marked as "available" will be listed for sale on my website, once complete. 

    Check For Available Reborns 
  • How will I know when you have available reborns to purchase?

    I always post on my facebook page and instagram when available reborns will be listed for purchase; and you can always check mywebsite as well. I will also include all details on the reborn prior to the listing so you can make a decision before it goes live. Please keep in mind that once reborns are listed, they are purchased very quickly, so do keep an eye on my socials (specifically facebook) for details, dates, times and links. There are also, no holds. 

  • Can I book in a reborn?

    On occasion and where time permits, I do allow bookings with customers. This is done at my discretion. It really depends on the sculpts I have available, time required and if there are special circumstances that require bookings, such as NDIS orders, memorial reborns etc. 

  • How do I book in a NDIS reborn?

    The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia provide funding for therapy and support services for individuals with disabilities. This includes funding for therapy dolls like reborn dolls. You can speak with your NDIS planner to see if a reborn doll could be included in your NDIS plan as an aid to support your therapy goals. If you would like to purchase a reborn for therapy purposes using your funds, please use the contact form to request a quote. I can provide an invoice for you to send to your funds manager or I can email it directly to them. Orders are still subject to availability.

  • Are reborns suitable for children?

    Yes, reborns are suitable for children but you need to consider their age and ability to care for a reborn to preserve its lifelike appearance. I also recommend painted hair only for younger children while older children can generally look after combi or rooted hair quite well. I would recommend children aged 8 and up in general, but it's totally up to you if you would like to gift a reborn to a child younger that.

  • Do you do silicone reborns?

    No. At this time I don't paint silicone reborns, only vinyl. Silicone reborns are much more expensive to purchase and require different mediums and methods to produce.

  • What is a vinyl reborn?

    A vinyl reborn doll is a type of reborn doll that is made from a vinyl material, which is a type of plastic. Vinyl is a popular choice for reborn dolls because it is durable and easy to work with.

  • What is a cuddle reborn?

    A cuddle reborn is a weighted, painted vinyl head with a weighted, soft posable body, similar to a teddy bear. These bodies are very snuggy as the reborn melts into your arms. This is a great option for children and also for those seeking comfort from their weighted bodies.

    Please see my reborn page to view images on {Cuddle} reborns.

  • What is "Combi" hair?

    Combi hair is a combination of painted and rooted hair. Typically, the reborn will have its hair fully painted and then mohair rooted on the top section of the head only. This creates a more lifelike appearance and can be gently brushed. This option is much easier to take care of than a fully rooted reborn, which requires extensive on-going care.

  • Do you use heat set paints?

    No. I use high quality air dry paints by Ultimate Fusion, which are specifically designed for reborning.  

  • Do you offer payment plans?

    Yes. We offer AfterPay at the checkout and on private orders where requested. Orders are only shipped once full payment is received, including any postage/shipping fees. 

  • How long do reborns take to complete?

    They can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months depending on its features, size and time permitted. 

  • Can I get a refund on my reborn?

    As my reborns are a work of art and are purchased as is, I do not offer refunds for change of mind or lack of bonding. Please see my terms and conditions for full details. 

  • Do you do custom reborns?

    At this stage, I don’t take custom orders but for booked orders, I can try to match gender, length, weight and hair colours where possible. I like to let my creativity flow with each kit and their unique features.

  • Do you do box openings?

    Yes, upon request only and for an additional fee, box openings can be added. As standard, your reborn will come with a wrap, going home outfit and all certificates. 

  • Do you offer any repair, painting, repainting, rooting or other reborn services to collectors or artist?

    No. At this stage, I only paint and sell reborns and do not offer any other services.
