We are half way there! They are not Tree Change Dolls, but they are wonderful in their own way!

Most of you know by now that I was inspired by an Australian artist who's transformed "Bratz" dolls known as "Tree Change Dolls" went viral earlier this year. After developing my own style, I decided to make 100 dolls and give 50% of the proceeds to an organization that helps rescue kids out of the sex trafficking industry. I also decided to keep mine reasonably priced (starting at just $24.99 each) so that more people could afford them.

My line of dolls is called "Just K.I.D.S" and the acronym stands for recapturing Kindness & Innocence & Delighting in the Sweetness of Childhood.

Our desire is to have all 100 sold before Christmas so that we can present a check to the organization before the Holiday season. This is truly a non-profit, labor of love.

To date we have sold 51 dolls! But, time is ticking away. I hope you visit my shop and purchase at least one. You will make a little girl very happy and also know that your purchase went to help other little girls. If you don't have a child to buy for this year, purchase one and give it to a little girl on your block or a little girl in your church. It is amazing what the Lord will do through sweet acts of unexpected giving!

Thanks Everyone for your help with this campaign. Here is the latest listing:

Painted Patio Wall Transformation - Our New "Secret Garden"

Michael and I have discovered a Secret Garden every where we have lived since getting married in 2010. Whether it was the creek that ran behind our first apartment in Sacramento or the tiny little space of our 520 square foot, 1962 single-wide, mobile home in Rancho Cordova, California, we were always able to discover and create a unique sanctuary to call home. Even though, in years past, we did what we could to make our surroundings uniquely wonderful, we never had the room to go really crazy until now. Since moving to our new home in North Carolina in May, we have not only discovered a world of exotic creatures and plants outdoors, but we have also started taking full advantage of the additional space we now have available to add our own touch of whimsy to the new "Wood's Secret Garden". Our first major project was the Patio which joins the in-law quarters (where mom lives) to the kitchen entrance into the main house. We have received so many questions abou

Custom Doll Trunk with Doll and tons of clothes and accessories now available!

This took forever! After transforming the 24 inch Bratz Dolls into "Just K.I.D.S" as part of the campaign to help rescue kids trapped in the sex trafficking industry, I got the crazy idea to convert a vintage suitcase into a doll trunk. After making the inside compartments and decoupaging and hand painting the entire outside of the suitcase (both front and back) the set is now complete and up for auction on Ebay. Leave a comment if you want to bid on this amazing doll trunk. You even get to pick which doll you want to be included.

Debunking the Myth: Mobile Home Living

I can't tell you how many times I get the raised eyebrow when I tell people that we live in a Mobile Home. There is such a stigma tied to mobile home living and mobile home parks and, working in Code Enforcement as I do, I admit there are some who live in mobile homes that are not helping to improve the perception. Having said that, there are also plenty of people who own "normal" homes that are less then upstanding citizens. With the current trend to downsize and simplify, the best way to accomplish that is by purchasing a vintage mobile home (for next to nothing) and renovating it. That is exactly what my husband and I have done. We purchased a 1964, 520 square foot, single wide for $3,500 and turned it into a magical place--both beautiful and functional! I have posted several of our renovation projects over at hometalk.com which you can read about here: http://www.hometalk.com/4079y/posts After posting my renovation projects, I was bombarded with people want
