The real Traceysbabies.....

Hi, I'm a working mum, of two little monsters, and I have been collecting dolls for as long as I can remember. I have always loved them, and as a child could never have enough. I don't collect any particular kind of doll or artist, but my collection is based entirely on whether I like a dolls face, expression, or whether it reminds me of someone...so as you can imagine, I have allsorts of waifs and strays in my collection.
Unfortunately, my husband does'nt share my love of dolls, and on his suggestion that we have a clearout, as he does'nt enjoy sharing his home with millions of dolls that "look at you!", I decided to list a couple on ebay, and was amazed that they sold really well. there were people out there that shared my love of dolls. Unfortunately for my husband, I discovered that I could buy even more!!! I like to clean them up, redress them, and will shortly be attempting to reborn my own babies... I have been looking into it, and have been doing a tutorial on the art of reborning, so keep a look out for some of my own wee angels coming in the near future. I love my hobby, still enjoy the collecting and my little daughter loves it too.. she helps me dress them and choose clothes and names etc...so who knows, it could be the start of a family tradition, kind regards, and thankyou for your interest.
Many of you will know that I now reborn my own babies, I don't claim to be as good as some of the proffessionals, I'm certainly not up to their standards, but I'm enjoying what I have been doing, and do my reborning to the highest standard. I like to take some of the vintage babies and give them a new lease of life, as well as the berenguers, and more real looking babies. I have sold quite a few now, and had no complaints...(yet!). I have been really getting into it, and am always on the lookout for likely "candidates". Thanks for keeping on looking, and buying, hopefully I will be able to continue offering these wee ones for "adoption", as long as there is a demand. I have also begun to buy and sell playdolls as I enjoy getting these wee ones and revamping them, giving them a new lease of life. Many thanks, Tracey.
