Craft Stars Garage Sale Round 2 - Info & Discussion Thread

I so wish I had the mental or emotional bandwidth right now to create and donate. I’m happy others are partaking in the joy of the Garage Sale again and snagging treasures from fellow craft super stars. It was such a good experience the first time around and I really wanted to donate a piece this time. I’m just not in a place where that’s possible currently.

I have sent a regular donation in lieu of participating and if there’s ever a third round someone DM me a kick right in the pants!

To all the fabulous crafty warriors who donated their skills and their time, I love you all. You give me hope and a place to come back to where people are beautiful and loving and magically create goodness with their hearts and their hands. :two_hearts::two_hearts::two_hearts::two_hearts::two_hearts:

How exciting to wake up to the last several entries in this thread! I’m just one sip into my coffee and have only been vertical for about 7 minutes… I’m a bit overwhelmed. I guess I need to get my act together so I can browse the sale!

@TheMistressT, you’ve already had a few sales! LOL

I"m about to start updating spreadsheet and sending emails to get the purchased items out to the buyers. Thrilled to see people so excited so soon. :star_struck:

8 items sold! All emails sent, telling donators where to send items to.

Quick question though… Did someone here buy the Frog’s Summer painting? I don’t recognize the name of the buyer. It could be someone using their spouse’s PayPal account, or it might have just gone to a random eBay user.

It was LuckyDog. They replied on the original painting post here on LC.

Thanks, @Rlynn, @photojenn, and @LuckyDog! I’ll have all three in the post Monday.

I was sad I missed @Abbeeroad’s embroidery! I’m currently eyeing the dino scrapkins.

I may or may not be refreshing the auction regularly to check for surprise pottery additions.

I am preparing all four (4) sets of Scrap Naps to ship! It’s my goal to send them to their adoptive homes Monday morning on my way into town.

(roll of strapping not included) :wink:

I promise I will post here to let folks know I’m working on adding new listings, and again once they’ve gone up.

In that vein, I just sent shipping info on our latests sales, and I’m working on adding two new listings right now.

After that, I’m going to try to work on putting together 3 items of my own for the sale!

(And I went grocery shopping, and did all my food prep for the week, and organized cupboards, AND Jim & I just finished our taxes. I’m on a freaking ROLL today!)
