Hello everyone! I have not updated my dolls for a while and realized it’s already May!

Some people are wondering if I am still making dolls, and yes, I am!

Lately I am making more dolls without dress or exact copy of dolls from my website so I don’t post them as a new doll.But I finally have a new doll to post and here she is. She is custom made 20″ A13T doll in red dress.

She has striking brown eyes and wearing rich dark red dress made entirely from antique material. These antique fabrics are hard to come by but very important to give doll ” aged look” and I am very pleased with the result. Please vist my front page bebesbysayuri.com to get more detail view of this beautiful doll.

I wish all mothers “Happy Mother’s Day”!

My very first Mulatto Bru Jne

I am very happy to introduce my newest creation 19″ Mulatto Bru Jne dressed in antique burgundy dress.

This is my very first Mulatto Bru I ever made and I am very happy with the result.
I never thought about making Mulatto Bru before but I had this special request from one of my customer so I gave try.
She turned out gorgeous with this burgundy silk and velvet dress made from antique material. It matches perfectly with her mocha skin tone.
I painted her eyebrows wider and darker than pales skin Brus because that’s one of the trade mark of mulatto Bru.
She is created from the same mold as other pale skin 19″ Bru dolls but you can see a big deference in her facial expression.
I truly appreciate my customer who gave me this wonderful opportunity to create this doll. Thank you!
To view this special doll, please visit at bebesbysayuri.com .
My work pace is still very slow but I am very thankful for being able to continue doll making after my back injury a year ago.
I am not able to post new dolls very often anymore but I always welcome pictures from you to add on ” photos from my customer” section.
If you purchased doll head from me and assembled and dressed them by yourself, please email me pictures of finished dolls.
I would love to share your talented work with all of my doll fans.

 Hope all of you will have a wonderful Holiday season.

I just finished my specially ordered custom Bru doll and she is up on my website now.
Many of you probably heard about or own the book called ” Precious Dolls” by Ursela Brecht. This book features one of worlds most beautiful doll collection.
I had a special request to recreate a Bru doll looks similar to the one feartured in this book and that’s how she was born.
She has very pale blue eyes with dark brunette hair and teal green silk dress.
It is very challenging job to create the doll looks like certain antique doll because each antique dolls have deferent facial expressions and painted differently.
I think I was able to capture the essence of the ” look” of this certain Bru doll by using these pale blue glass eyes and perfectly styled mohair wig.
This wig was custom made by wig artist Leni. She did a superb job recreating antique look wig for her. Thank you Leni!
I also used teal green antique silk fabric to create her dress. This darker tone dress and dark wig really make her face stands out.
I am very happy with the result.
She look so deferent from other Bru dolls I have made in the past and I am sure you will enjoy seeing her too!

My Newest Creation little Bru Jne 4 14″ doll

It’s been a while since I added comment on this blog.
I had back injury early this year and was taking a break form doll making for few months.
I am now well enough to get back on doll making ( but slowly) and I am happy to introduce my newest creation.
She is tiny 14″ Bru Jne 4 with striking blue dress.
I used all antique material to create this dress and wanted to emphasize her narrow waist and beautiful bisque breast.
You rarely see reproduction Bru dolls with Chevrot body in this size so I wanted to make her as gorgeous as the larger size Brus.
I also love this head mold because it creates classic ” Bru-like” facial expressions.
It’s hard to get feeling how little she is from pictures but her head is smaller than your palm. Actually nice size to work with since I can’t lift heavy molds yet.
I will be making more smaller size dolls for a while and my work speed will be much slower till I fully recovered.
But my passion for creating beautiful dolls are still the same. I hope I can continue to share my love of dolls with everyone through my dolls.
Please email me for any questions or comments!
I love to hear from you!
