Martha, you guys should think about taking all the craft items leftover from TV segments and shoots and putting them for sale on eBay to benefit causes you believe in. Can you imagine the amount of money you could raise that way, using things that you don't neccessarily need any longer? It would also be a great positive PR move for you.

Love, love, love this post!
Crafts are my favorite leisurely pastime hobby. And I'm sure for many of your bloggers, too.

Martha, I think you would get lots of participation holding an "MSLO Bloggers May Craftfair" to help raise funding for a needy organization.
You could provide us with a deadline date and mailing address to ship our handmade crafts. And for bloggers that are short on time, they can probably enlist a family member or friend to participate.

What an absolutely fantastic way to involve children and employees. Marcie is very talented, would love to take a class to learn her instructions! Thanks

I'm impressed that so many of your employees have the time to produce a unified body of craft in addition to (this is the notion I have) working hard for your organization. Very attractive items and generous employees.

How fun...and such awesome stuff! I'd love to check out some of them if they have shops online or on Etsy.

Hi -

Thank you for posting the photos from the craft fair. I am so inspired by all of the wonderful creations. I particularly enjoyed Marcie McGoldrick's ornaments. Would Marcie be willing to post instructions on the website? I would love to make them to donate to our church bazaar next year.

Thank you!

So many unique items! I can't help wondering how much more money would have been raised if a number of tickets would have been available for sale to the public--I would have gladly paid $20.00 for a chance to peruse the merchandise!
