Doll Making Supply: Glue

February 16th, 2010 by admin | Filed under Doll Makers' Supplies.

Those of us involved in the hobby of reborning put a lot of time, money and effort finding the right supplies. We have to use a lot of tools and chemicals (paints, glues, etc.) and in the case of reborning a lot of wear and tear on your wrist and hands.

What type of adhesive is best to use in making your reborn doll?

The favorite choice in my reborner’s tool kit is Aleene's tacky glue. This can be found at many craft stores. Also Use craft glue specialty E6000 I would recommend if you are making a doll with a hope of selling, as this is a high quality adhesive with a very strong bond.

A lot of planning and craftsmanship goes into making the face of the doll, look realistic. The baby’s eyes play a major role in crafting the face and its expression. There are different dolls with different expressions and all look real, because of the care taken in choosing the right eyes and skin wrinkles around the nose. If the eyes are closed then lot of attention goes into creating the perfect eyelids and eyelashes.
