Tinkerbell Nursery

since 2004

Helen Jalland| ENG, United Kingdom

I have been reborning as Tinkerbell Nursery for 22 years and started at the very beginning of the reborning world when we were using ready made factory Berenguer dolls to strip the factory paint and reborn! I have seen the reborning world grow from very small shoots to where it is now and have been proud to develop my own techniques and style. I have reborn prototypes for many artists and doll kit suppliers over the years. I worked with my sister Linda Murray producing kits for our company 'The Cradle' for several years and also worked with Ashton Drake with their range of 'reborn' dolls and worked prototypes for them to base their range of dolls from. Reborning is a real passion for me and I still get excited every time I start reborning a new kit and still try to improve in every area as I go along. It has been a career for me as well as an incredible hobby and pastime which is how it started. I shall never want to stop!
