Welcome to my worldMy name is Carolyn Doughty and I live in Preston, Lancashire (in the North West of England) with my five cats and a dog.
I've been making silicone babies for around 10 years now, and I make them from start to finish - I sculpt the whole baby in polymer clay, make a mould, cast the baby in my own blend of a super soft platinum silicone, then paint and root the babies. I also sell my babies as blank kits for you to paint and root your own baby, both full body babies and also partial silicones. You can browse the silicone babies and doll kits that are available by clicking on ONLINE SHOP. I offer payment plans for finished babies, and also for most of the blank silicone doll kits. When I started out in silicone back in 2013, I could find no information about how to make a silicone, so I decided to work it out for myself. I went on a mould-making residential course, and started to teach myself to sculpt. It was over a year before I made a head that was good enough to show anybody, but I was also having difficulty with moulds and materials. It cost me a LOT of wasted money on trial and error, at that time there was no information on what materials or techniques and people who were already making silicone babies tended to keep their trade secrets to themselves. I started my own YouTube channel sharing what I had learnt and encouraging others to learn the craft. I don't believe in keeping things to myself.

Please buy only authentic silicone and vinyl kits. There are a lot of illegal copies finding their way into the market. Do not buy cheap knock-offs, they are illegal copies of artists' work and in buying these cheap kits, you are harming the doll artists and harming the art of doll making in general. I am proud to support authentic reborn and silicone artists.
