About Us

For as long as I can remember I have had a deep love for babies, children and anything to do with arts or crafts. I remember my dolls as being my most cherished possessions, I loved caring for my "babies" and looked forward to being a real mommy.

I have been a tole painter for 12 years and enjoyed the 2 years I was an instructor of Tole Painting until the store in which I taught, closed

I always admired the reborned babies that I saw on ebay and one day decided "I can do that" and purchased all the necessary supplies and my first kit, "Hope" from Secrist Dolls. Shortly after they arrived, my dear, sweet Mom passed away. She was my biggest supporter of my art and taught me that "you can't fail, unless you fail to try." Her death devastating to me so the box of supplies was shelved. About a year later I knew I needed to do something to pull myself out of the depression I had sunk into and pulled out my supplies and kit. I watched the DVD's I had purchased and started into reborning my first baby. I was shocked at how well she turned out and named her "Nonie" in memory and honor of my dear Mom. Nonie will never be adopted out and holds a very dear place in my heart. After that first success, I was hooked and ordered another kit, then another and on it went . As friends and acquaintances saw my babies, orders started coming in and babies started going out to new families.

I had observed that others that sold their babies had nursery names and decided there was only one name fitting for my nursery. . . .. hence "Nonie's Angels Nursery" was born. I am often called Nonie and I don't mind, my Mom was one of the most loving, giving souls I have ever had the privilege of knowing.

I am the mother of three wonderful sons (27, 26 and 20) and caretaker of little ones that come to my home each day while their parents work. I have been a Day Care provider in my home for 24 years and have loved every minute of it.

Thank you for looking at my babies and reading how "Nonie's Angels Nursery" began.
