Nie Nie Benefit Sale

 

“On Saturday, August 16, 2008, Stephanie Nielson was in a plane crash with her husband, Christian Nielson, and his flight instructor, Doug Kinneard, near St. Johns, Arizona. Doug Kinneard passed away soon after arriving at the Maricopa County Hospital.

Christian & Stephanie remain in critical condition at Maricopa Burn Center. Christian has sustained burns on over 30% of his body. His wife Stephanie’s body was burned over 80%.

Since 2005, Stephanie has welcomed us into her charming abode through the NieNie Dialogues.”

 

There will be a benefit sale on Etsy Sept 23-24 to help the Nielson family. (Please see below for the link.)

Prim & Whimsy Girl ‘Halloween Harvest’ Challenge

Bet you were wondering what was going on this week, huh?

I’ve battled a fantastic sinus infection this week & was running behind on my little dollies Sunday. SO…instead of trying to cram a whole lot of things into one day, I decided to wait until tonight to list my dollies. They’re both 5 day auctions so they’ll end at their usual time. And yep, I said they. This week, I’m offering two dollies.

One is a challenge piece, made especially for the Prim & Whimsy Girls ‘Halloween Harvest’ Challenge. To see what the other extremely talented Prim & Whimsy Girls have made especially for this challenge, search PWGL HARVEST on eBay & look for this banner:

Please read the posts below to see my piece for this challenge.

The second piece I made this week is my first mini offered individually on eBay! She’s an Atlas moth & a pumpkin fairy & so tiny & sweet. See Zoey below.

And if you get a chance, check out the Prim & Whimsy Girls group blog. There are some free vintage images over there for use in your art projects! Or sign up for our mailing list for all the latest news.

Hope you all have a great week!
