Welcome To The World Baby Juniper My name is Lisa Olson and I have been sculpting dolls since 2006. I start and finish my dolls by myself from beginning to end, everything is made here in my home with my hands. I have sculpted her, made her mold, poured her mold in eco flex 20 silicone, painted her with silicone paints and put her together with a soft cloth body. A very labor intense and expensive process, but I am truly pleased with the outcome and hope you love her. This type of doll is what is known in the industry as a Cuddle Baby. This means that the doll has a cloth body. Some cuddle babies have realistic hands or feet as well, but most are all cloth like this sweet baby is. I want you to to be clear on the distinction between silicone babies and vinyl babies. A true silicone doll is soft and squishy and there are different types of softness in silicone. A vinyl doll is hard. Some companies market their dolls as silicone vinyl or even straight out say silicone when in fact it is vinyl. My baby is REAL SILICONE.
