Project: Baby Beds

About 6 months ago, Kaylee discovered a company called Hearts For Hearts that makes some very cute dolls.  They represent girls from around the world and part of the proceeds of each purchase goes to World Vision, a Christian humanitarian-aid group.

We decided to invest in Tipi (from Laos), Zelia (from Brazil), and Dell (from the US) as Christmas gifts for the girls.  My cousin Alexis brought them down in October when she came to visit us for three months.  We spent that time setting them up with a little house.

While Kaylee made mattresses, quilts, and pillows, and extra clothes, I made beds.



We also picked up a to-scale oven, kitchenware, and dressers at the Feria de Alasitas, an annual fair that specializes in miniatures.  Kaylee made walls out of cardboard, wrapping paper, and a few goodies.
