Hello my name is Ellie and I am the artist here at ElliesBabies.
Ever since I was a little girl I have had a fascination with dolls, I began making clothes for them, from about the age of seven, and as a teenager I made my own clothes, including knitting mini jumpers and crochet dresses!
I have always been interested in art in many forms and have painted in oils, acrylics and watercolour as well as different types of 3D art, I have an inbuilt need to be creative!
When my children were small I made all their clothes and had a successful cottage industry making soft toys and rag dolls.
For the last 20 years I have had my own business as a Designer/Dressmaker, mostly making beautiful wedding gowns.
Whilst I was recovering from an operation I discovered Reborn dolls on the internet and knew instantly that I had to pursue this. After much research I began reborning, and I love every minute, my skills as an artist have been stretched and my creative need very much satisfied!
I am now a very happy full time reborn artist and
I am very proud to have won the PRAISE award
Recently, I am really thrilled to have been nominated for the Colliii Awards
This is an international reborn competition and I am one of only four artists from the UK to be nominated!
I'm continually discovering new techniques to create the perfect baby for my customers, and seeing their pleasure and delight with them is wonderful!
I hope you enjoy looking at my 'babies' please feel free to contact me if you would like more information.
