Missions collection!

I have a request for anyone who may have physical goods they want to donate – things sitting in craft closets or left over from a kids party etc. If you have any of the following, we’d be glad to take them to the kids in Honduras. 

- 18x18 or 20x20 squares of girly material so we can make no-sew purses with the girls. 
-any new hair accessories for girls including brushes, combs, etc.
-school supplies. We have plenty of pencils though.
-small items to be placed in treat bags. Ex. toy dinosaurs, toy jewelry.  Nothing looking old and worn out, please & thanks!
-any candy, just nothing that will melt!
-individual size peanut butters.
-stickers
- soccer balls
If you have anything else you would like to donate, we are taking for 30 girls and 30 boys.

The kids are grateful for everything they get & we like to make them as fun and nice as possible.

  If you want to shop but don't have time, Walmart gift cards are great, we can get the items too.

Fundraising in the sun

Lovely day yesterday at an Artisan Market at Meridian Station Gifts. After a rough 2 weeks, I didn't feel like the early wake up or spending my day working, but I am glad I did. Not only did I close the gap for our fundraising total, but it was gloriously sunny day with delightful company, as Gretchen and I shared a tent and she sold some handmade jewelry and Mary Kay.

I sold Jason's soap and some other goodies. If you'd like to order some, there are still some left!
