raisin funds...

The kids at church had an auction.  The proceeds went to help raise money for their summer activities, and other things that keep popping up that seem to cost a fortune.
All the kids were supposed to donate, and I pitched in a little and made some hair bows.
They were out of scrappy fabric and were really cute.
The hair bow above was cuter than the picture, it had a vitangy shabby feel for it, and I would have worn it with no problem.  It sold for $8.00.  Ok, not an astounding amount, but about what retail would have been.


Then there was THIS one, it was so cute and so vibrant, and I threw in a $8.00 beanie because I bought it for Olivia and it was too small so what the heck.  I thought for SURE that would be the eye catcher.
$7.00 (ouch)
 
Along comes this number.  A yellow daisy I had at the bottom of my bag mixed with other scraps.  It was cute, but of almost no creative investment or monetary investment on my part, just something I literally just threw together.
It brought in $31.00
Really.
Blink blink...
cha ching for the kids anyway!
