"These Bratz dolls have been rescued and rehabilitated from op-shops and tip shops around Tasmania. These little dolls for girls have opted for a "tree change," swapping high-maintenance glitz 'n' glamour for the down-to-earth style. I repaint the dolls faces by hand, mold new shoes, and my Mum sews and knits their clothing," Sonia.

"My sisters and I grew up playing with second-hand kids toys and home-made cute toys in the beautiful Tasmanian natural environment. I love the satisfaction of repairing and reusing discarded, though still cute dolls to give them a new lease on life."
Before and After
Day spa
""If all goes well these, when repainted, dolls will be ready to move out in March. I hope they are enjoying the day spa before their make under!" Sonia.
""These little dolls (salvaged from the Recovery Shop in Glenorchy) will get a good wash, new feet, new faces, and homemade clothes. Then they'll be ready for a new home! They may still have some scars from their previous lives (look at those chewed legs), but at least these realistic dolls won't become landfill," Sonia.
