“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.”

Testimonials

I have had the privilege of personally knowing Joey outside of the interwebs & dolly world. He is a genuine sweetheart, creative artisan & dreamy photographer. Not to mention a real kick to be around. Blythe meets in Texas would have never existed hadn't he transplanted from California. That's safe to say. xox

During his tenure as my very best friend in all the world, Joey has fixed my dolls, cut their hair (and mine), showed me most of what I know about customizing, took me to my first Blythe meet, stuffed my head with a vast sea of doll knowledge, allowed me to benefit from his sparkle magic ability to find toy bargains, and last but not least, customized two of my favorite dolls (York and Cosi). He has a big heart, a wicked sense of humor, and a ton of talent. I love him to bits. xxoo

I adopted my MoBetta custom Tallulah nearly a year ago; and she is wonderful. I am a big fan of Joey's custom work; his artistry and use of colour is gorgeous. Plus, always worth mentioning, he is a good and nice person.

Joey is your go to guy for Kenner restoration! I sent my first ever Kenner (Pepper Piggs) to him, not realizing how many issues she had going on inside her vintage head. Joey was able to make her better than I ever imagined possible! He worked is skills on de-yellowing her skin, redoing her makeup into vintagey perfection, repairing her eyeball issues & smoothing her frizz halo. I am *so* incredibly happy to with his work and would easily send him another Kenner to restore in a heartbeat.

I "met" Joey about a year and a half ago when I first started falling in love with his custom girls. I adopted three within a short period of time and became friends with him in the process. I find Joey to be a deeply sensitive and caring person and also an emotional one. I love this side of Joey as it comes through in the girls that he creates and with the way he nurtures his relationships. The first three girls have since moved on and I currently have two new Mo'Betta girls in the house. Moxy and little Miss Sadie Took! I consider Joey a friend and look forward to the day that I can give him a big hug in person!

I think all of Joey's customs have such unique personalities with a style all their own! He certainly has a knack for knowing just how to make each one Mo' Betta! Joey was great to work with and super fast too! and I can only hope I will have another chance to own yet another Mo'Betta custom!

I am so pleased with the work that Joey has produced. I have 2 dolls that he customized and I must say he really has a talent for bringing out their beauty. He is so easy to work with and can easily explain the custom options to choose from. Thanks Joey!

JoooooeeeeeeeyyyyYY! What can I say, I LOVE my MoBetta Blythe custom girls and can't wait to send more of my little ladies to Joey's custom works to be "re-did". It started with sending a doll who was badly wrecked by another customiers, I never thought she could possibly turn out so beautiful and enchanting. Next I sent Joey a girl I thought was plain and ugly and she is crackling with life. He's the real deal.

Joey is a very talented Blythe customizer. Not to mention one of the sweetest in the Blythe community. He took my drab old EBL girl and turned her into an awesome Faux Goldie. Her make up is amazing. I also hit Joey at the right time when he wasn't super backed up with requests as can sometime happen with all Blythe customizers, and he had my girl done & mailed back to me lickity split. I am very pleased with the work he did for me, and would definitely use him again for future customs. Thanks again Joey for all of your hard work and putting up with my craziness! :)

I have been a big fan of Joey's customs for a long time. His is talented in many disciplines which gives him an a amazing versatility one doesn't often find in a doll customizer. I feel very fortunate to own several of his beautiful customs and hope to one day commission more.

Joey is an extremely versatile customizer. His range is very very wide and if you stalk his photostream like I do, you will find that he has instilled in all his customs such expressions and beauty. I love his bright quirky customs as much as I love his subtle beauties. But IMHO, I think his Kenner customs are absolutely divine! I love the way he does Kenner lips. His humor is sharp and sometimes shocking but it's just dolls, so don't be too sensitive. ;) Joey also collects a lot of other dolls so he's extremely knowledgeable.
