Reborn Dolls – A little background about Reborn Dolls

June Barlind, a doll collector, was searching on the internet a few years ago for dolls, to add to her collection. She the stumbled up something out of the ordinary. Amongst the usual listing for dolls were ''all these pictures of babies''. Obviously these babies weren't real and being autioned. They were "reborn dolls". ''Reborning'' is the name for the procedure of changing and altering a baby doll to look and to feel as much like a human baby as is possible. Barlind decided to get one. Once she got it, she decided she had to make one too. Soon she started selling her reborn dolls through eBay as well as her own Web site. Plenty of other people have stumbled upon it. One Web site where reborn ''artists'' and their customers get together has over a thousand members. The practice of reborning has grown quickly in the past year and is an increasingly popular hobby (and to some, a business). Here are some examples of Reborn Dolls.
