Oh, what fun! So happy to view a box opening on your channel! She is really a pretty baby, and I love those big brown eyes! I know you will fix her up like new, and can't wait to see what you do with that wig!💇
You'll make her great, can't wait for the best reveal of her. Glad you were able to purchase another one. 😇😻😃 Love that particular baby. You'll definitely make her great again 😉 You got to keep this one, maybe do a twinsies day with me😉
I hope you got a bargain on her, just saying. I'll look forward to see her transformation!! She really does have a beautiful face!!! All the best to you on this project!!
Congratulations Sharon! She has a beautiful face. I can’t wait to see what you do with her. She will be beautiful! I’m sorry you are disappointed, but she does have a very beautiful face. Blessings! ❤️🎀🌸🥰
She has a beautiful face those eyes are gorgeous I think I have that kit I have collected a few favorite kits but I am fairly new to reborning so I haven't rebornned her yet. Love your reborning videos very helpful.
Whoever did the painting has never seen a black baby before. The palms & bottom of the feet should be lighter with pink under tones.. Please clean off most of the paint on her hands & feet.
The film on the bottom of the foot might be varnish that wasn’t allowed to fully dry before baking, or wasn’t blended/blotted enough with the sponge/brush.
Her face and skin tone are very beautiful. Just needs a little TLC. Then she'll really be yours. I've used white charcoal from Amazon and Gain dryer sheets in a kitchen garbage bag to get rid of the smoke odor. Please post when she's been spiffied up. She looks precious without the wig too!
Congratulations!! She's so cute and sweet 😍. I'm sorry she has things wrong with her. I hate the smell of cigarette smoke. I hope you can get out of her.
New subscriber here,and it was a great and informative video! I’m sorry it was disappointing though! She’s quite beautiful though,and I hope you were able to get the cig smell out!! Enjoy your weekend!❤️
Awwww, so sorry she has some things wrong with her. Ugh, the cigarettes! 😫😫😫 That is the nastiest ever. She’s super cute though and if anyone can fix her up, you can. Fingers crossed she’ll look like a new baby once you are done. Congratulations, my friend! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
She already is a new baby. I worked very hard on her. I replaced all her original weighting/stuffingthrew; I replaced her cloth body; I washed her in Dawn & baking soda; I clipped her rooted eyelashes; I gave her a coat of air dry matte varnish; I re-tipped her nails; I painted hair on her; I repainted the bottoms of her feet; I gave her some eyebrows; I lightened her lip color a bit; I varnished the tiny holes where the wig was fastened and now you can barely see them. She is my favorite Kyra to date, and I've reborned 6!
I kept holding my breath as I was watching this video because this was almost identical to my experience with my first reborn. It was almost uncanny really, hard to believe that it was a different person from the one I interacted with.
Her feet and and hands should be pink on bottom and her palms. I think they wanted all the same color. Real AA babies are not. She is adorable bald. She is beautiful
Her husband is probably a smoker or the carrier was smoking around the package. I always ask for people to wrap the baby's up in bags. You can put her parts in baking soda for four weeks after you empty the glass beads out of her doll limbs and rinse her glass beads in dish soap and bleach. And put the rest of her body in the washer after you removed the glass beads to. But sorry you're baby arrived like that. Ive had some doozies to and I've cleaned the baby's myself.
I really hate it when people do that to a doll 😮😮😮. I’ve been wanting to order a doll but I’m scared to. That person lied to you about the smoke smell. Yikers. 😮
@@lifewithsharonb5138 jeeeeez…..so sorry that you had to experience that! What was the name of the person and their reborn nursery so I can alert other about it on my FB page?
@@TheAimlesslyWanderingSoul She was a seller on ebay. This doll was in her collection and stored away and neglected. I was glad to rescue her and give her a make over and a nice place to live! I've had her for a few years now.
Were you able to get the smoke out of her? I bought a full body silicone doll in 2021 who smelled like smoke and was fully wrapped up so I couldn't tell! I've never gotten the smell out of her and I understand how you feel! What happened since?
I took her completely apart, threw out all her weighting and stuffing, bought her a new cloth body, put the clothing I wanted in the wash, soaked her vinyl parts in Dawn, put baking soda inside her vinyl for a day, put a baby powder wafer in her body, and I don't smell it anymore. I love her now!
So…..was she sold to you as brand new? Did you buy her sight unseen? Was she a custom? I agree her palms and feet are way too dark, but that should’ve been obvious in the sellers pics. I feel embarrassed for the seller😒. She sure has a beautiful face. Lovely baby. Sorry you were so surprised and disappointed.☹️
No, she wasn't sold to me as new. No, she wasn't a custom. Yes, the seller should be a bit embarrassed about the smoking issue, but she was nice enough to send me some personal gifts. She will be a good project for me. I like having projects to do, especially reborn ones.
The seller did not tell me the truth about someone in the house smoking cigarettes and she needs to be worked on quite a bit. The bottoms of her feet are missing paint, blotchy paint, etc. Her wig was supposed to be unattached, and it was attached with pins, leaving small holes in her vinyl. That's what's so terrible.
@@detraabbott- A seller who lies about cigarette smoking is the problem here. A seller who doesn't tell you a wig is attached with PINS making holes in the vinyl is the problem here. A seller who sells you a doll with a diaper cover that is stretched out in the waist and is full of imperfections and too large even for a toddler is a problem. A seller who sells you a doll with a wig that is a 'rat's nest' and cannot even be combed is a problem. As a matter of fact, Detra, you have suddenly become a problem to me, so I would appreciate it if you would simply not watch any more. There are plenty of other videos for you to watch.
I cannot believe the remarks you made about the things smelling like cigarettes. I certainly hope she DID NOT WATCH YOUR BOX OPENING as I thought it was tacky. And to say the one gift was terribly used, too big and went into the trash. I will never watch another video made by you.
Hun, you need to stop zooming in on the camera, it was all blurry. And it’s very frustrating to watch…..please, for future videos, just leave it on, we can see it very well without the blurry zoom. BTW, I am very sorry you got such a badly painted baby.
@@lifewithsharonb5138 cameras are very difficult to work with or get a decent one. I hope you have success with a new one hun. Did you fix that baby up? She has a beautiful face but def needs some work. Please do a follow up video if you fix her and please tag me so I can see her. Good luck xx
@@carolharris9609 Yes, she's all fixed up. There are several videos of her on my channel. She's the only black baby currently in my collection, and I really love this sculpt.
I fixed her up. She looks great now. Her wig is gone, she has painted hair. New cloth body. Used several products and got the smell out. She's a great little doll now.
Oh, what fun! So happy to view a box opening on your channel! She is really a pretty baby, and I love those big brown eyes! I know you will fix her up like new, and can't wait to see what you do with that wig!💇
She’s beautiful and I know with your talent she could only get more beautiful!!! ❤❤❤

I wonder if they have been painted in as dolls of colour generally have lighter palms and soles of feet
Absolutely
I cannot wait to see her rescued so excited....
You’re doing a great job!😊

I think she is beautiful
I love the yellow knit ! I don't plan on changing the clothes on mine tho..
Congratulations!! She's so cute and sweet 😍. I'm sorry she has things wrong with her. I hate the smell of cigarette smoke. I hope you can get out of her.
I like the color that she have now not to dark
Yes she needs work but her face is very sweet and worth saving
New subscriber here,and it was a great and informative video! I’m sorry it was disappointing though! She’s quite beautiful though,and I hope you were able to get the cig smell out!! Enjoy your weekend!❤️
Welcome, and thank you. Yes, she is spruced up and loved very much now.

I hate pure white nail tips. Looks so unnatural on a baby
Yes, I know. I fixed them.
Wow

Wow, that is so uncanny. Thanks for telling me! I would never have thought that!!
Did you film a box opening of this doll? If so, please send the link. I'd love to see it! Thanks
@@lifewithsharonb5138 unfortunately I did not. This was a couple of years ago before I started my channel :)
Her feet and and hands should be pink on bottom and her palms. I think they wanted all the same color. Real AA babies are not. She is adorable bald. She is beautiful
The baby Love
aww shes very beutiful
Thank you! I think so too.
The bottoms of her feet, and the fingers and palms should be a darkish pink.

Hello! Did you ask to send photos to you before you ordered, dear?
No, but I asked if she was a smoker to which she said no. There were photos available. I kinda knew she would be a project, and she will be worth it!
Thinkin the doll smokes 🚬
I wouldn't buy a used doll unless I knew the person real well Smoke,pets or uncept house you may get from a stranger.I hear this a lot on youtube
I really hate it when people do that to a doll 😮😮😮. I’ve been wanting to order a doll but I’m scared to. That person lied to you about the smoke smell. Yikers. 😮
Yes, that was the most difficult thing about this purchase.

Hi Sharon I like you Chanel
Thank you. That's very sweet of you to say so.
I LIKE HER WITH NO HAIR

Heartfelt on both ends
I hope you post after you fix her
I have. Many times! Her name is Mavis.
Aren’t the inside hands and feet bottoms supposed to be flesh colour?
Yes. Or pinkish.
Smoke? Omg
She is cute Bute definitely needs work.
The baby is beautiful, but that wig has got to go. She actually looks better with no hair to me, but I love bald babies.
I gave her painted hair. I love her now!
😂
Is this one someone sent you to fix?
No, I bought her.
Hope you did not spend a lot on her 😢
No, not by today's standards anyway.
Why Terrible!???😮

So sad ...
I fixed her up and love her now!
Hand wash baby soap and conditioner.d
Put her back getyouremoney back
She's all fixed up now and being loved & enjoyed by me.

That's certainly your prerogative. No one HAS to watch ANYONE'S videos.
Don't watch then bully

BTW, I am very sorry you got such a badly painted baby.
It's not the zoom. My camera seems to have a faulty auto focus. I'm so sorry it is so frustrating. I am looking into a new camera.
@@lifewithsharonb5138 cameras are very difficult to work with or get a decent one. I hope you have success with a new one hun.
Did you fix that baby up?

Good luck xx
@@carolharris9609 Yes, she's all fixed up. There are several videos of her on my channel. She's the only black baby currently in my collection, and I really love this sculpt.

Get you'reoney back
I fixed her up. She looks great now. Her wig is gone, she has painted hair. New cloth body. Used several products and got the smell out. She's a great little doll now.
This is NOT a good job sorry
