| Meet Sheri McDonald...I am a married mother of four with nearly twenty years of experience working with people with disabilities. My experience in the not-for-profit sector includes business management and administration, as well as front line work. I saw my first reborn doll several years ago on ebay. I immediately fell in love and admired them regularly. I began researching how they were made but never thought I would get the chance to learn the art until a local craft store started teaching reborn classes. I was unable to attend a class, but my close friend Cheryl took a class and eventually became an instructor herself. She shared her skills with me, and together we decided to create Lifelike Dolls as a new resource for doll lovers everywhere. I currently teach advanced and ethnic reborning classes.

Meet Cheryl Bage… I am a mom of three wonderful children. I live in a small town in Ontario, Canada with my son and 2 daughters.
I have spent most of the last 20 years in computer related work, from teaching at a technical training center to 7 years in digital imaging for a large photography business.
I have enjoyed creating since I was a young child. Taught by my grandmothers and my mother, I learned to sew, knit and crochet.
I was introduced to the artistic world of Reborn Dolls by my best friend (Sheri) and their beauty and realism have captivated me.
Like many, I began by researching to find as much information as I could on how to create these works of art. After taking a beginner’s class on Reborning, I set out to learn all I could. I am proud to create these beautiful collector dolls.
With the demand for an outlet for reborn artist, sculptors, and doll lovers to come together, Sheri and I have combined our knowledge and skill to bring you a resource to share your passions, Lifelike Dolls.
