After a tremendous response to my poll question on FB, I have officially decided to raffle off my beautiful baby Lulu Printy (Winter Rose) all proceeds going toward the Heart & Stroke Foundation!
In honour of two of my favourite people: my father & my Albino aunt (who was the inspiration behind this version of Lulu, with her white blond hair and pale blue eyes) who both passed away far before their time – my aunt 9 years ago this past summer, and my father 4 years ago this coming January. Both of whom never lived to see me selling my art, full time.
My Pa, my auntie, and my brothers & I. ❤
This is a foundation extremely close to my heart & that my fans feel the love for this cause too makes it all the more special.
So in lieu of a giveaway, here’s is how to participate and have the chance to own this amazing baby girl! All proceeds are going toward the Heart & Stroke Foundation. To participate, leave your donation of $5 or $10 respectively to be entered to win.
I will be drawing December 1st, with time for baby to arrive before Xmas! ❤ Thank you so so much to everyone who voted! Very, very excited and thankful! ❤
More pictures of baby Winter Rose.
Winter Rose is the now discontinued Lulu sculpt by the very talented Jen Printy! She has been meticulously painted using Genesis Heat Set paints – custom mixed for a completely unique skin tone, complete with blue and yellow undertones, and over five layers of mottling for ultra realism. Her capillaries and blushing is blended well with tiny milia on her button nose.
Her skin has been sealed with matte varnish to keep her shine free permenantly and dewy skin finish was used to create realistic, still soft to the touch, newborn skin texture. Shine was added to the corners of her eyes, lips and nostrils. Baby Winter’s hair was micro painted one follicle at a time using two tones for dimension and rooted using slumberland mohair – the effect being an ultra realistic head of painted hair that will always look and feel perfect, no styling required! I am open to offers on her, as has a flaw under her hair. Painted her hair twice, but both times the paint cracked where the hair was rooted. Have rooted her thick through the crown so it is only visible when her hair is moved. Looks like cradle cap. *see pics. Was selling her for $449 OBO (as a baldy, regularly she’d be $599).
Winter’s body is the custom doe suede body by BB. She has 3/4 limbs. She weighs 7lbs, 4 oz and her limbs and head have been sealed and weighted. Her body is weighted in all the right places to give her an authentic newborn feel (perfect for cuddles). Limbs have been filled with glass beads and polyfil, with glass beads in a sealed sac in her torso and head (so nothing will leak). No sand is in her body so she can travel worldwide!
Her eyes are german Lauscha glass eyes, in light blue, perfectly set to look like a curious newborn!
Winter comes with a birth certificate (customized! You can change her name to whatever you like & pick her birth details).

Pink Hello Kitty onesie & tutu leggings set by Nevada Baby.
