Please welcome my newest addition to the Cradle of Angels Nursery Baby Abigail Ann.
Abigail is a little darling and was absolutely one of my favorite all time sculpts to reborn.
She will melt your heart just like she has mine with her chunky little body and beautiful expressive little face…
Little Abigail was reborn from the Harvey kit by Leighanne Harvey. I loved this sculpt the first moment I saw it and already had Abigail in mind even before I started working. The Harvey kit was created as a little boy and I could only see a chunky little girl with lots of hair…
I think she will melt your heart just like she has mine…

 

 

The Harvey sculpt is a limited sold out edition of only 250 worldwide.
She has been a delight to bring to life.
Abigail is about the size of a 3 month old baby girl. She has the sweetest little wrinkles in those chunky little arms and legs.

I used Genesis Heat Set Paints to create the realistic peaches and cream complexion of a real baby at this age. I gently "mottled" the skin to give a more baby like appearance and I am very happy with the results. Even though there are many hours of painting and many layers to achieve this result it has been worth the time spent. With each new layer I began to see Abigail emerge.

 

I have tried to use the mottling technique I have to make her skin tones appear very much as a small babies woAbigail has a full head of reddish blond hair with a bit of curl. I wanted her to have lots of hair and big blue eyes just like my own grand daughter Sara. Our own Sara was a chunky little thing and when I saw this sculpt I knew exactly what colors I would use.

 

Abigail is weighted with glass beads and soft fiber to give you the feel of a real baby in your arms. You will need to support her head just like a real little one. There is very subtle veining and her wrinkles have each and every one been highlighted to enhance her in the most realistic way.

 

Her lovely thick hair was rooted a few at time with high quality angora. Abigail's hair can be very gently washed and styled. I have sealed the hair from the inside of the head.
She also has a magnet for her "paci" which has been created especially for her. She will have it for her trip home to her new Mommy.

 

Abigail has the expression of a new baby girl that is taking in her world…she is contented and happy just being loved and held. Abigail has lovely long lashes that frame those big blue eyes.

 

The hours spent painting and rooting and putting this baby together was totally worth it to me. I enjoyed bringing her to life.


 

Dressing her was such fun!
She was such a special little girl that she needed something unique to bring out the peaches and cream complexion and that lovely thick reddish blond hair.
Abigail is dressed in a lovely three piece dress set that was designed entirely for her. The short gingham pink dress fits her wonderfully and can be worn with or without the lovely pinafore.
Abigail can wear 0 to 3 month newborn clothes and newborn size shoes.
Each of my babies have been created with love and patience and many hours of hard detailed work.

 

 

 

Once again I fell in love and am very happy to present this adorable little girl to you.
Abigail will go home to her new Mommy with her beautiful outfit and paci and will be "tucked" in for her trip with a few special surprises.
Please remember that my babies are not toys but heirlooms that can be handed down to your own children to cherish and love for many years to come.

Abigail was created with a love and passion for this art form.
Postage for this baby will be $27.00 in the United States and will include insurance as this is a precious bundle.

I guarantee that my creations are one of a kind. I will stand behind my artistry and integrity and again guarantee each baby is individual and will never be duplicated as I mix my own paints and have my own unique reborning techniques. Abigail has been made with the highest quality supplies that are offered in my field.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit to the Cradle of Angels Nursery and will check back in as I am working on my next beautiful little one.
Thank you for visiting and come again…Shhh…Abigail is finally going to sleep…she is a bit tired after her photo session.
