Celeste Challenge Update

Yes, thank you Pia! Many times I was tempted to buy the string tie body, but never did. I like the fact that the cable tie bodies are American made too.

I wish all of you the best with the challenge.

I just wanted to mention something that might be an issue with open eyes: it might open fine but when rooting lashes I would imagine it would put a lot of tension on the cuts. When rooting regular open eyes the vinyl is thicker there and molded. I could easily see these eye openings tearing with the pressure. I could be wrong. Just thought I’d mention it as I hate to see anyone sad.

Thanks @pia I had no idea there was that much difference either.

What size eyes did you use?

Been reading all your comments because I decided to buy Celeste finally had some dolly dollars and I just saw this comp. how exciting I can’t wait to get mine and start. I had some good ideas for that mouth which make them all more exciting to do now. I was thinking of opening the eyes too, and wow just have to say that one in the comments looks amazing. I’m might just join the band wagon too! Lol

Is the sale still on for the reborn when spending 100?

jeanhai · May 29, 2015, 3:47am

No, it was a one day only sale. I missed it too.

I just got my Celeste. When do we start painting and will there be classes? Or do we all do our own thing? I got a Case awake free!

micholc · May 29, 2015, 5:22pm

You just do your own thing. It just has to be done and 2 pics(head and body) submitted to micholc@aol.com by 9pm eastern July31st.

I did not order the belly plate should I have?

micholc · May 29, 2015, 5:36pm

You do not have to do a belly plate. I don’t think anyone used a belly plate for the last challenge. If they did, I don’t remember.

debora_jenkins · May 29, 2015, 6:52pm

Ty so much I used to be here a lot but I had some issues and am trying to be back.

AmyR777 · May 29, 2015, 7:36pm

I’m glad you’re back! Hopefully, life has settled down for you.

debora_jenkins · May 29, 2015, 9:30pm

Ty I hope so.

otterbaby2 · May 29, 2015, 9:36pm

@debora_jenkins It is good to hear from you again. Hope that things are getting a little better for you. Are you still working as an EMT?

debora_jenkins · May 31, 2015, 12:01am

YEs I am only able to work 1- 24 hour shift a week as an EMT due to my knee and my surgery last year but I am also 911 dispatching also.

dguerrera · May 31, 2015, 8:22am

I am looking forward to the contest as well! I got Awake Kase for my free Realborn from the Memorial Day Sale! Most of my reborning skills have come from doing orangutans and Only very few babies but I thought why not give this a good try…I can only learn from my efforts to do better. I just prepped the Celeste Doll and everytime I look at her I feel chalenged esp with her mouth! If anyone has any suggestions on the best colors to use…please let me know. Looking forward to the challenge with everyone though. Have a blessed day ladies!

micholc · June 1, 2015, 12:54am
