As of today we have been able to ship 35 boxes to Chile and we are still receiving daily emails about the conditions. Some have had their Red Cross aid stolen, others have no shoes and no food. One of my very favorite people there is homeless and out on the streets. Many people are living day to day in rains and winter.
Any contributions, a dollar at a time help! Our goal is to raise enough money to ship 10 more boxes this month which means $550.oo worth of donations. Everything is already bought and ready to ship! Thanks to all of our readers!!

As for Chile earthquake relief, I am sad to say our donations have slowed down quite a bit. I have about 10 boxes ready to ship but no money to send them. We’ve had news from the South that winter has set in and the tents people are living in are not holding up to the cold and rains. They are in need of thick warm clothing as many don’t have water to wash. If you are interested in donating please do so 🙂 via PayPal at heatoddgardner@yahoo.com or email me for a street address to send supplies or a check. Also, check out my Etsy shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/HeatherZahnGardner. there are over 200 YA book related items and fine photos. 40% of the proceeds go to Chile.

If you are interested in donating today I will give away these three unclaimed prizes to the first donations received! Comment below if you donate to Chile relief and wish to enter:

Poise & Petite Hair Clip and Brooch

30 Mar, 2010 by in vintage 38 comments

Today’s Etsy giveaway is from FloraBond…Busy mom and lover of vintage and handmade! Livin in Idaho, but from Tacoma/Seattle area and miss it!! Hello everyone in Seattle, I miss you and the shopping!
Flora Bond was started in September of 2008, and soon after started a line of vintage fabric flower necklaces and accessories.

My passion is to design custom wedding necklaces and millinery. Flora Bond has done many custom wedding designs and would be happy to help put together a wonderful necklace to accent your dress. Necklaces and accessories are designed around the fabric, neckline, and color of your dress.

I would love to help create a special custom Flora Bond necklace, brooch, earrings, hairpiece or bracelet. A purchase with me is a personal and special experience. You tell me your thoughts, I convo you options, then you tell me your ideas and thoughts on my options etc. We work together and create an amazing Flora Bond design.

My rosettes are handmade using 5 different methods depending on the look I am after and the fabric used. They are secured to a backing sometimes and then always, needle sculpted (hand stitched through the flowers) until they are perfection! Hard work I know, but so worth it! Every necklace has a soft cotton backing.

90% of my fabrics are vintage/repurposed and 95% of my chains are vintage. I make an effort to describe what goes into my designs so you know how hard I work and just how wonderful the components and fabrics are. Thank you for your support!!
Feel free to convo me anytime with a question or even to say hi!

Flora Bond fabric necklaces are in Boutiques in the USA, Japan, and in the cutest little high end boutique Lemon Meringue downtown IF. My Necklaces are also featured for sale at the Craft and Folk Art Museum in CA, and also in Richmond, Virginia. www.quirkgallery.com

She is giving away a Poise and Petite (( Hair clip and brooch )) Vintage fiber art.
