Our Vision

Mission Restoration is a property that has been winterized since 2016 and is beginning to be reclaimed by the Sumter National Forest in Newberry County, South Carolina. This 1.78-acre property includes a small home constructed in the 1940s, which requires major restoration. My desire is to utilize this serene retreat in nature to create a space where small groups can regain their confidence through creative and ever-evolving opportunities. 

However, Mission Restoration is about more than just restoring the home and property; it is also about restoring our spirits. Here, we will work alongside the tranquility of nature while engaging in the physical restoration of the land and home. Each application of our efforts aims to foster a sense of healthy pride and confidence that individuals may have been lacking, helping them take the next step in their lives. 
The ultimate goal is to make Mission Restoration a continuously growing initiative. Each visitor carries a lost dream or suppressed talent. Through their dedication and hard work, some may have the opportunity to become the owners or foremen of their own lawn care service. The mission provides the necessary equipment and helps them maintain and run the business while mentoring and training the next person who comes through. Alternatively, we envision creating a functional garden that could supply our local grocery store, thereby providing jobs within the community. For those with experience in the trades but lacking the confidence to start their own businesses, we aim to assist in establishing services like painting, where the mission supplies equipment, marketing, and support. 

I have been living here alone for a year. For the first two months, I relied on a gas generator because I couldn't afford the electrical repairs until a retired master electrician helped me bring everything up to code. A manufacturing contract I had been waiting on finally came through, allowing me to make significant repairs to the existing well. After about eight months without water on the property, it is a relief to have running water in the house. The showers are still cold, but major progress has been made! 

By allowing us to support you in achieving your needs—whether business or personal—you will also help us fulfill our mission of assisting those less fortunate than ourselves. Currently, we offer services such as product design (CAD design), mold making, prototyping, 3D modeling, tailored promotional items, custom tiles, plastic and stone fabrication, garden, and patio decor, among others. 
Our target clientele includes: 

**Small businesses** needing product design, prototypes, promotional items, or packaging. 

**Artists or hobbyists** seeking custom molds and locally processed red clay for arts and crafts. 

**Individuals** looking for unique decor, custom designs, or functional art pieces. We offer a unique vision across a variety of materials and processes. 

**Custom Designs:** CAD modeling, product prototypes, and STL file creation.  

**Fabrication Services:** Silicone mold making, tile creation, statue construction, and restoration. 

**Promotional Products:** Cookie cutters, keychains, ceramics—you name it, we can design and likely produce it. 

Noteworthy artistic projects include our collaboration on the restoration of the Phidias Statue at the Telfair Museum in Savannah, GA, a prototype for the BornGlobal Organization that was displayed at the 2022 Environmental Summit in Switzerland, and game-inspired modeling design and finished garden sculptures, along with various garden and patio decor items. Additionally, we work on breezeway/carport block tile design and production, lawn pavers, and floating cement pond ornaments.
