Here is my Baby Teddy, created using the newly released "Teddy" sculpt by Phil Donnelly. I purchased this sculpt directly from Phil and received the limited edition number 24 out of 150. Doesn't he have the most adorable face? I've thoroughly enjoyed making this baby and I hope you'll agree that he is just so sweet. Initially, when I received the blank sculpt, I was undecided whether to make my version of Teddy a girl or a boy, but I chose to keep Teddy as a boy and kept his name, though you could obviously changed it.

I have taken lots of pictures of Teddy, in natural window daylight which are all available to view via my Facebook page (link - Facebook) and 'work in progress' pictures taken in and around my workshop are available on Instagram for further viewing.

I have used Genesis heat set paints to build up his detailed skin tones, tipped and sealed nails, baby milia on his nose and painted eyebrows, I used 'IArtReborn, Dewy Skin' on his lips and I have lightly varnished the inside of his mouth and nostrils to create a look of light moisture, I also used  'IArtReborn, Matte skin' to complete his soft skin.

I have given Teddy dark blue glass eyes, these are so pretty. I have given him specially made doll eyelashes on both the top and bottom.

I have hand rooted Teddys hair using 'Tinkerbell Creation Premium Mohair" from Tinkerbells, its a lovely brown colour and soft I have completely sealed this inside. I recommend using a new toothbrush to comb using a little bit of baby shampoo/conditioner with water, he will come home with a baby comb.

Teddy will wear first size and newborn size clothing, he is lovely to hold and give a great cuddle, I have weighted him approximately 6lbs, He has a floppy head and weight in his bottom, this has given him a realistic feel, you will need to support him when picking him up and holding him.

Teddy has full length arms and legs on a quality structured soft cloth body and is evenly weighted in his legs and arms using glass beads and virgin fibre fill, I have weighted his head and he has weight in her bottom which is surrounded with fibre fill. His head is floppy so will need supporting, like a real baby.

Teddy is a great size for a cuddle, If you are considering adopting Teddy for a younger collector, please keep in mind that Teddy is NOT A TOY he is ART and contains small parts, he MUST be handled with LOVE. 

 Teddy has a magnet fitted behind his mouth to hold his magnetic dummy  (The magnets I use are extremely strong neo magnets these can be potentially unsafe around pacemakers, PLEASE message me if these need to be removed)

Teddy will be prepared with a lovely box opening, examples of how I pack my boxes for travelling can be viewed on my instagram.

He will arrive in a new box, complete with the new clothing displayed in his photos and his signed limited edition Certificate of Authenticity from Phil Donnelly. He will be presented with tissue paper and ribbons
