Girl of the Year 2026

Meet my Raquel!

This description and conditions will apply for all my Raquel dolls unless noted. Please read in full before committing into purchasing them. Since her release was very early, before her official year, I don't have clarity yet on how many will be hand painted, but it won't be more than 5 throughout the reminder of 2025 and 2026. Regardless, due the unique nature of how hand painting works, each one is still and will always be a One of a Kind!


Lovingly hand painted  from brand new Raquel dolls, to give them life-like facial features including but not limited to, eyelashes, eyebrows, facial shading, and skin texture, that were sealed multiple times in their creating process to withstand the pass of time and gentle handling. 

They will come dressed in their complete meet outfit, including bracelets, which will come sealed in their original packaging.  Journals are not included as they are donated to my local Elementary Schools libraries. Let me know if you want it included.

Their hair is barely touched for photography purposes only and will be placed in a hairnet to secure it during travels.

They will travel well protected in a shipper box inside their original boxes.

As all my dolls, they will come with a Certificate of Authenticity of their custom work, a signed printed picture for your records, my wrist tag and their boxes will have my label.

This space will be dedicated to the new Girl of the Year 2026, Raquel Reyes, and will be kept up throughout the year. Here you will find Raquel dolls that I have hand painted when available for purchase.
