On regretsy (which yes, happyfallout, I do read every day, you douche-canoe) they're always raising money for some etsy seller in need or another. The selected recipient of said cashstash is subsequently all flabbergasted and humbled at the response and generosity. I now know exactly how they feel!
I expected to raise two to three hundred tops. I wasn't steeling myself for disappointment or anything, that's just how much I honestly thought I'd raise. As of last count, we have $1,358!
Antique silk ribbon with bullion.
The next category is "Instant Collection"
Finally, "For the Gypsy."
Lot G2
Earrings from pieces of tobacco box and findings missficklemedia sent me.
So there you go. If I pick your name, you need to send me your address. You can etsy convo me or email at marinarios@yahoo.com. (I am on etsy all day, just so you know, and on yahoo rarely). First ask, first serve. So you can request a lot... (I mean 'one of the lots', not 'make a lot of requests' sheesh!), but it might not be available so I suggest you select a few preferences. I can NOT have these to you by Christmas. I cannot swap out this for that, measure anything or take more pictures from different angles. I'm trying to make this easier on myself. And they'll be sent when they're sent! So stop hassling me!

Some people asked when the drawing would be. Like I have a plan! But I suppose I'll pick the winner and TEN runners-up by next post and you know I don't go 2 days without posting. So that should give you no idea.
Exciting and so very thrilled about the the support for Sparrow, blessings for her.
ReplyDeleteYeah that cat thing..I have 2 cats,which might explain my general unhingedness.
Totally amazing. I'm so proud of you and everyone who's donated. I want those damn Indian stamps! Lot I1!
ReplyDeleteI'm proud too ! It's a great amout... it's a salary !^^ Good job, Fanci !
ReplyDeleteOh ! I meant a pay... I have to take a better look at my translations... Sorry !
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome! I am so glad you managed to raise so much for your friend.
ReplyDeleteThat is great news!! I hope it helps out a little. I hope she's recovering and pain-free. have you talked to her? or emailed her?
ReplyDeleteLove all these extras you picked out from you stash. So generous of you! xo
I couldn't give much but hey, every bit helps! This is a wonderful thing you are doing :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job you are doing! Hope that you will pass on my condolences and well wishes to Sparrow.

PS, where did the kitty pic come from?
Awesome job there, Fanci!! That's a nice sum! Love your goodies, if I'm one of the winners I'd love those Wooden fabric stamps - I1.
ReplyDeleteAny word from Sparrow? Sending love and healing wishes to her.
...Jackie xo
Yay! That's a whole lot of well wishes going Sparrows way. What a wonderful response to your efforts, fanci. Hoping that sparrow begins feeling better soon and that knowing so many people care will help to ease the heartache during this difficult time.
ReplyDeleteYou're the gift that "just keeps on giving". Nice of you to share more goodies with people. Ok I know I said not to enter me in your raffle, but then you go show those great tin earrings! I'm almost regretting my words! :)
Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteLove the instant collections 1 and 4.
If you could give us any updates about how she's doing, that would be wonderful. I think about her a lot.
ReplyDeleteGood job, Fanci! That is amazing.
ReplyDeleteBTW - whoever drew the cat in the bottom picture has a really messed up idea of cat anatomy...
a-w-e-s-o-m-e!! You are awesome lady.
ReplyDeleteThat's seriously awesome!
ReplyDeleteI've sent her the money for the necklace So Charmed bought a few days ago. Hope it helps a bit.
I'm also drooling at those stamps -- they would work so well in ceramics. But don't include me, because international shipping will cost a lot, and that money would be more useful to Sparrow.
How freakin' awesome is all of that! I am so grateful that this little community has come together to help someone so dear. You are also a dear. And that last picture of the cat worshipping the dark lord made me spit out my coffee. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day, Miss Marina!
