Design Your Own Collection with Reborn Doll Kits

For an avid collector purchasing your very first reborn kit is an exciting new venture. This is because you can finally make your own doll depending on your personal style and preference. These kits can be found online at a very reasonable price. The advantage of having a kit is that it gives you flexibility and more control on how you would design your doll.

If you wish to paint your own reborn baby, make sure to have these materials ready: a few pieces of fine paint brushes, odorless thinner, heat set paints in different colors this depends on the type of skin tone you would like for the doll and a cosmetic sponge. Follow these easy procedures:

1.To give the doll a more realistic look, mix a part of odorless thinner with a periwinkle shade of paint that you can use to draw lines that will look like veins. Place it around the temple area; check on some actual baby photos to get an exact image.

2.Make the face come to life by using a mixture of thinner with a few hints of the red and brown shade. This will create a blushing effect that can normally be seen on babies.

3.Do the same thing to paint the lips with red color by using a paint brush.

4.Remember to draw a very fine line along the eyebrows. Dab a cosmetic brush along the area to give a natural look.

5.With your desired skin complexion, carefully apply the paint over the entire body. Always remember to let it sit for a while to dry before applying a new layer.

The most important thing to remember is to let it dry in between steps in order to be sure that the paint is fully absorbed. Once everything is all set, you can start decorating your new collection with fancy clothes and accessories.
