Hi and welcome to FN Artistry my name is Darhlia my husband passed away in March 09 from cancer leaving me as the sole parent to our 7 earth bound children.
I live in a tiny little town in South East Queensland, Australia called Killarney. If you are ever over my way feel free to call in for a chat and a look around my studio.
Please feel free to add me on facebook : fnartistry
At FN Artistry I am dedicated to creating realistic amazing lifelike dolls, commonly called reborns or fake babies. I strive to make each and every baby doll as true-to-life as possible, devoting an enormous amount of time and attention to every specific detail from the very tips of their tiny toes to the very tops of each little baby's perfect head.
I started making these lifelike babies in 2002 and followed on doing custom reborns and also pregnancy and infant loss memorial dolls soon after that, I feel it gives me a way to honor the brief yet very important lives of my 4 little miscarried angels, my stillborn son Allan and my little Noah who fought so bravely but only got to stay for 4 1/2 hours before he passed away.
My children will always remain in my heart and in my thoughts and they are the inspiration behind all that I do.
If you would like me to make a custom / pregnancy or infant loss doll please fill in the form on the memorial babies page and together we can create a doll that will be cherished keepsake.
I also do web design and graphics and I love to scrap book. I sew heirloom baby clothes and designer cot quilts. I am also learning the art of homemade soap making. When I get a spare moment I also like to do embroidery.
I BELIEVE I CAN FLY
~Author Unknown~
They believe...be sensible
prepare now
save for the future
work hard while young
enjoy when old
no pain no gain
They believe...compromise
follow the crowd
stay within the lines
keep your head clear
keep your eyes straight
ahead
feet on the ground
What about now! what about roses? what about stars?
what about chasing rainbows, floating clouds, butterflies...
what about silver linings, serendipity, spontaneity...
what about moonbeams, sun-rays, raindrops?
I believe...
I believe I can cut my own pathway
I believe I can step off the edge and not fall
I believe I can close my eyes and follow my heart and soul
I believe I can walk in the rain and not get wet
I believe in today and have hope for tomorrow
I believe in dreams, I believe in me...
I believe I can fly!
I belong To The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Later Day Saints (Mormon).
We believe that families can be together forever, beyond death, for all eternity.
This has been a great comfort to me to know that I will see my 2 little boys again.
