I am pleased to Introduce my newest little blessing...

Evan

October 20, 2007

Weight: 5 lbs. 1 oz.

Length: 18 inches

Tamie Yarie created the Ashton kit as a beautiful sleeping baby boy, I thought it would be fun to see what he looked like if he where awake, so by altering the sculpt and giving him eyes it was like waking him up. I must say that the task was very tedious and time consuming, but the end result was so worth the time and effort. I absolutely adore him.

 

Please understand that this baby kit is not made with open eyes, I have opened the vinyl, inserted eyes and then sculpted him eyelids to help maintain the realism of the original sculpt.

 

This baby is a true "ONE OF A KIND" reborn baby.

Important Notice

I am no longer accepting custom orders and will not be repeating any dolls or reborn kits. There are just to many beautiful babies being released to duplicate any of them. So if you have fallen in love with Evan, please be aware that this is the only baby like him that I will be reborning.

 

Evan's Special Features

    Evan was originally designed by renowned Master Doll Artist Tamie Yarie as a sleeping reborn kit named "Ashton" and has been reborn by me, Shelli Sebring, here at the Almost Babies Nursery using Genesis heat set artist oil paints.

  This kit is a limited edition of 500 world wide of which Evan is #34. Evan has been hand signed and numbered on his cloth body by the original artist Tamie Yarie.

  Evan was originally created as a sleeper kit, I have opened his eyes to "wake him up". Evan's eyelids were sculpted with Super Sculpty clay and liquid sculpty. As with any "sculpt" there may be a few minor flaws. But nothing that would take away from his beauty.

   Evan is a "OOAK"  (One of a Kind) baby, another baby exactly like him will never be reproduced.

   I have given him a brand new doe suede jointed body. I have weighted his body with poly-pellets and given him extra soft filling to give him a very realistic baby feel when you are holding him.

  He has 3/4 arms and legs and they have been weighted. No sand was used to weight him! Making him easy to travel anywhere in the world. Evan wears Preemie or small newborn size clothing.

      His hair has been micro rooted in a beautiful medium brown premium angora mohair.  It has been sealed on the inside so it can be gently dampened, combed and styled.

    I have applied his eyelashes in a beautiful l medium brown.

  I have opened his nose and backed it with dark felt for the appearance of depth.

       His fingers and toes have been shaded for a natural appearance and triple sealed to prevent him from losing his natural baby nail look.

     Evan has a modified magnetic pacifier. Please use caution around computers, pace makers, etc... These are very strong magnets.

What he will be going home with...

 Adorable Carriage Boutique outfit

 Sleeper and hat

  Modified magnetic pacifier (not shown)

  Personalized name bracelet

  Adoption certificate

  Receiving blanket
