Description

The listing, Reborn MARIAH has ended.

This is a reborn baby. I bought this from another artist about 4 years ago. The last two photos are pics of my own work but I stopped doing it ever since my son died in a car crash. Maybe one day I will get back to it. The baby you are bidding on is Mariah. She comes with everything you see on her. She is not a play toy but an heirloom to be enjoyed for generations to come. I'm sorry but I'm not sure where her birth certificate is. I know she is five pounds. Her factory name was Zoe. She was gently painted and baked with genesis paints. Her hair was rooted 1-2 hairs at a time. Her hair can be dampened and styled. you need to treat her just like you would a real new born baby and if you do so, you will have her a life time. I hope you like my auction, she has brought me a few years of joy. I love holding her funny as that sounds. She is simply beautiful. . She comes as is and will be wrapped in a blanket and arrive safely to her new home. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask.

Questions & Comments

Great auction!!! I lost both my parents in 2005 and I was 40 yrs old then. Still have bad days but I feel blessed to have had them as long as I did. My mother appeared to me one night and told me Baby heaven is more beautiful than you could ever imagine--this brings me much comfort:))))). And hannibalmissouri is right-I didn't have children but I have a couple hundred babies:))) they do bring joy to the lives of people who are hurting. Have a wonderful and blessed day!!! My pastor told me. We don't mourn for the ones we lost-we mourn for the ones they left behind.

love this i lost my daughter september 20,2008 she was 4 months and 3 days old not a day goes by where i don't wonder and think what life would be like with her i have always wanted one of these reborn dolls but have never been able to afford it such a beautiful one

Feb 1st, 2014 at 5:05:27 PM PST by

the younger they are the harder I think it is. My son was 24 when he passed but old enough to know life and death. A baby does not know which my heart does bleed for you. I wished I could make one for everyone who has lost ...if I were rich that's how I'd donate my time. but thank you for being a part of it all...it really does mean alot

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 12:03:01 PM PST by

bigblue5471 thanks so much if i could afford to buy one i would i would buy one for everyone if i could its so sad after all the cost of everything its hard to get on our feet still we just finally got her headstone paid off beautiful as ever, i wait for the day that i can have one that looks like my Alivia i pray everyday to be gifted one of these, some think its weird but it would give me a little comfort to have one i no plently of people who say they help them ease the pain god bless you hun and may god watch over you along with your son he is always with you

It truly amazes me how many who have lost. If we never had the internet one really would never know. Now a days, it seems like everything is expensive but the reason why I listed Mariah on Listia instead of Ebay was to give "someone" a chance to afford her. I Know I'm not going to get nearly what was spent but that's ok with me. I got a few years of enjoyment and its time to let someone else adopt her and know what its really like. Everything I list is for someone else to enjoy.. really not the credits to me.. its to try and give back just a little. I have a really ungodly painful bone disease I got from the use of depo provera for ten consecutive years without knowing the warnings in taking calcium everyday.. because of it, my time here is limited.. my things are just things to me right now.. can't really take them.. Its not bothersome by any stretch because people die everyday.. I got more time then my son and I would have traded places with him in a new york minute.. I really do miss him and I know he will be there when I'm ready.. so please.. take a look from time to time what i have out there.. as I said in my very first sale.. I aim to please... and to me, that's what its all about. thanks again, prayers your way as well.

It will be cased and displayed

Jan 28th, 2014 at 11:12:33 PM PST by

you can do anything if you win... but that sounds really nice. I always had Mariah laying on the bed in our guest room... every now and then I'd go in and hold her. she feels just like a newborn.

Jan 29th, 2014 at 9:38:53 AM PST by

f and w such a beautiful baby, I pray you are able to have peace with yourself and be able to make them again as you do good work. I am so sorry to hear of your troubles and just know I will keep you in my prayers.

thank you....i appreciate ur kind words and will remember them cuz u dealt with same thing I'm going through ..and no it doesn't get better with time i agree ..yes talking helps me a little talking bout my Jessica i like to keep her name and all alive ..i write to her every day still on her facebook page telling her how i feel i know its not same as she was here but it kinda helps me telling her. i blame myself for her death cuz as mother i always tryed to protect them from harm...it killing me cuz she died alone in that bk seat and i wasn't there to hold her n tell her it gonna be ok .n that i love her... i was told so many story bout that day but then found out the truth bout her how she died in that backseat .what hurts me is i wasn't there with her when she died ..her boyfriend is in prison now the judge gave him 3 to 9 yrs for killing her cuz was his fault but i don't think that's enough time cuz she lost her life ..he shouldn't have been driving the car anyway that day he was blind in one eye n only parcel sight in the other no permit or license plus speeding doing 80 in 30 road that was curvy... they only dated for a week before the accident ..it should be if u take a life u should. have ur life taken away to by prison forever..he will have his freedom soon jess don't have hers .every day i cry n wonder why it had to happen to her but people tells me cuz god take the best n he wanted. her for a reason ..she loved life loved animals loved to help people n all animals n creatures she had a heart of gold and she was my bestfriend to...now all i have are memories...thank u again for listening to me bout my daughter..and I'm glad i find another friend on listia to confined it ...thank u !!' god bless ...

Jan 29th, 2014 at 6:36:56 PM PST by

God bless you! We should never ever have to bury our own children. My son was 24. It hit me like a ton of bricks when my dad called at 10:20 pm to notify me. He died on the same street I grew up on as a child. The passenger, his half sister died three days later. She was only 19. Not a day goes by the both of them are not thought of. Not a day goes by I don't cry. But they are now on the best place anyone could ever be so I know when its my time to go, he is going to be right there for me. All these horrible stories I am now learning how so many of you have tragedies. It really breaks my heart but at least we as woman can share all we have endured. Thanks for your story, write anytime if you'd like to talk, Far as concealed cash, I already have other bidders and it wouldln't be fair to them to take down the auction. take care and good luck to you!!

I'm really going to miss her myself but I'm hoping she brings as much joy to someone else as she has for me..... and your house burned down?? so horrible =(

I feel your loss from my heart since I've lost a daughter to leukemia. We never get over it, we only get past it as best we can & holding a cuddly reborn baby doll proves to be comforting therapy after losing a child as well as for those longing for a child but can't have one. (The photo's of ur own work show that U are a very talented reborn artist & I'm told by other reborn artists who've lost children that reborning is therapy for them :)

Jan 28th, 2014 at 3:02:05 PM PST by

I really do feel your pain. I think "death" is just the hardest thing in this world to get through. When they say "stress can kill" .. that is very true as it almost killed me. I am so sorry for your own loss. Thank you for viewing my work and thanks so much for liking it. The baby is 17 inches long. Awesome therapy you are right about that!!

Jan 28th, 2014 at 3:56:51 PM PST by

Sorry for the loss of your son ..may God heal your broken heart ..F&W ..My husbands little brother dies at at 19 ..20 years ago but you never get over it but the time has gotten easier

Jan 28th, 2014 at 12:07:34 PM PST by

It will be 7 yrs in October for me and your right, there is no getting over it. For me the pain is over bearing and continues only b/c my son was Caylee Marie Anthony's daddy and I've had a hell of a time just proving it. long story as you could imagine. thanks for your very heart felt words and I will pray for your family's loss as well.

Jan 28th, 2014 at 12:17:21 PM PST by

Thanks for the great description and very detailed photos. She is stunningly beautiful. Makes me want to grab her up kiss her little head!!!

hello my listia friend I'm sure yiu will gets lots of credits for her usely at the last day of your auctioning is when it gets going and the credits go high and when the hours are counting down....i hope in the future u start making reborns again I'm trying to save all my credits i get from my auctioning so i can win one on listia ...I'm trying to find one that resembles my Jessica when she was baby but haven't seen one yet...i have one reborn already that i got from this girl off listia that had screwed me cuz she said she was a reborn artist n was impersonating to be a women in her 30s with kids..cuz she was gonna make me a reborn that resembles my Jessica as baby n i believed her...long story short she was only 15 and scammed me out of my money so i threatened her i was calling cops if i didn't get my money bk or a reborn . i was heartbroken again she used my daughters death to get to me. but she sent me a reborn she had gotten with my money from ebay.but not wut i wanted..so hoping to win one i really want.

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 7:08:01 AM PST by

That story is just the unthinkable. wow. So sorry you had to experience it. The reason why reborn babies are expensive is because when we very first get a factory baby.. we pay anywhere from 100.00 and up just to start the reborn process. After it arrives, everything is stripped. Her hair, her body paint, arms, legs and head are removed.. hair is rooted 1-2 hairs at a time.. arms and legs are painted and baked and that takes much time.. Its not a one time job, its a repeated process. Cloth bodies need to be ordered, little and and toes need to be painted as well... hair needs to be glued on the inside out and so does the magnet to the paci.. trust me, it is time consuming and a lot of work and the key is to make it look as real as one can.. that's just some of what goes into these reborn's. I have an away in a manger baby still waiting to be processed and it appears I am the only one who knows how to put it back together. Most artists will use a cloth body on an away in a manger baby and those babies sell for well over 700.00. I'm thinking about it.. if I do I will let ya know. again so sorry for your experience

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 11:59:31 AM PST by

I had a miscarriage in 2005 and I feel really hurt about that . I am wondering does she move or make sounds like a real baby . I know she's not a toy and I know she's not a real baby but if I had her i would treat her like she was real and she would go every where with me and I would watch over her all the time. What does she all do.

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 10:27:13 AM PST by

sorry for the delay, my dad is hospitalized at this time. Mariah doesn't do anything. sorry. The Courtney doll I made was a breathing baby. I thought was really nice.

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 11:52:02 AM PST by

Feb 7th, 2014 at 5:50:19 AM PST by

I know its very hard. I lost mine during birth and i just cant imagine at 4yrs old or 21 22 yrs old. Id die if i lost one of my boys iv got one at both thoughs ages right now. And i would not make it. I cant beleave how strong u guys are. But thats what ppl say to me about my son that died. But i never got to interact with him like u guys did. And i go on knowing it was all for a reason. Dont know what,but some reason....i do love this baby. I want to get one like this. If i have the shipping im still ttying for it . I have it now. As long as i can hang on to it.lol

Feb 5th, 2014 at 12:35:18 PM PST by

Sorry to keep bothering u,but i had a question, on here arms, are they all the way up or 3/4 up. I was wondering because i am looking at clothes at the dollar store for her, and they have lots of really cute dresses but most show the shoulders ,they are all summer type stuff ,i guess u can put t shirts on underneath them if the cloth shows. But just wondering .. i won the other baby ,bella that was on listia , the one that ended last week or so,and i got her yesterday and love her. Shes older though. She has really long hair so it really makes her look like a toddler ,i love it but still want a new born. Thats what my baby was when it died.,and i really hope to get one. So far im still high bidder, and i plan on going pretty high,even with shipping. Its worth it. Any way thanks so much

Feb 6th, 2014 at 3:36:39 PM PST by

No bother at all... I added two more pics at the end to show her full arms and full legs. She has a very very soft weighted body too. I absolutely LOVED Mariah when I got her too. I will miss her dearly..lol. I am deeply so very sorry for your loss =(
