This is a quick shot of Grace and her friends loving our artist to artist group! These girls are awesome. But ~ This post is all about Grace. Grace, needs your help! Last month she found out that she has an opportunity to go to Jamaica in June for a mission trip to an orphanage. This would be her first ever mission trip, her first ever time out of the country, but not her first time ever serving others. This child has a servant's heart. She is sooo excited!
She has already begun to save her money to pay for the trip. It will cost somewhere between $1,200 and $1,500. For September,she has saved $200.00 by babysitting, mowing, dog grooming, etc... she is on fire.
We're going to have a booth at a Christmas arts and crafts fair where we'll have things like gift bags (fabric, sewn by Grace), bookmarks, cards, pillows, bean bags, anything we can create, plus some baked goods.
I just happen to think that maybe you all would be willing to donate some art for our booth too. If you are interested, please email me. We would be so very thankful!
I'm thinking about ATCs (Christmas or winter related, or not!), bookmarks, anything you've sewn, hand-carved stamps, anything you might want to share.
Please email me if you can help or have any questions.
Thank you so much!

I will see if mom will donate some "stuff" from her craft days, and I will get to work on maybe a painting??? Chris and I did talk about it on Sunday,, we we want to help as much as we can. ($$)
That's great! I'll see what I can come up with. When do you need it by? Knitting=not man's fast craft :-(
Thanks Holly!~ We need it by the first week in November... if you can work that out it would be wonderful!
I have a scarf already done, actualy I was going to donate it to charity and ta da! here's a charity :-). It's nothing fancy, but ti may help. E-mail me your address and I'll send it along with some (not much but every bit counts hmm) $.
I will begin to search for items that may be useful for her art fair. Since I am not very artsy, the search may be limited and brief.
