I came across this article written by a lady named Joyce Moreno.
She has been making dolls and anything to do with dolls for over 50 years. Joyce goes into detail on how she started reborning back in the 1980’s.
Its a great read and its good to know how it got started and the different ways people react to the dolls.
One thought on “History of Reborning”
When my daughter died I was searching for a way to keep her memory for her twin sister. It was then when I found the reborn baby dolls. This was 10 years ago… I messaged a lady about a baby and even though at the time I could not afford a baby of this magnitude I was determined to save for one. Joyce Moreno contacted me and she was very sweet and kind… she told me a lot about reborn babies and the way she got it started. It was Christmas 2006 a year after my baby died that I received a package in the mail. It was a beautiful reborn baby from Joyce Moreno. The most amazing little baby I could ever imagine receiving. It was so much like my own child it took just about 9 years for me to be able to even take it from the box and hold it. She was an amazing woman and I am very blessed to have a baby in the memory of my daughter from such a loving woman. Her memory will go on forever and especially in the reborn Doll world. She inspired me to give back to those who would greatly benefit from a memory baby. RIP Joyce Moreno!
