"A Few of Leslie's Favorite Things" Auction-The Rules and Posts
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
As we have been hinting around all month long, it is time for the "A Few of Leslie's Favorite Things" blog auction! I am super excited about this one since it encompasses literally a few of my favorite things. So enough of the chit-chat. Let's get this auction started.
The Rules
Each item has its own post in order to make bidding easy. I have started the bidding of each item at 30% of the retail price. No bids will be considered if posted on this post. Make sure you post your bid on the item's post in order to be considered. Links to each post are listed below.
Make sure when leaving your bid price that you leave an email address as well. If you win the item, this will be the way that I contact you to work out the details of receiving your item, payment, etc. Make sure that your payment is mailed promptly so the details can be worked out with each of the supporters in receiving your item. Once the item is awarded to the highest bidder, the supporter will mail the item directly to you, hence the reason for leaving your email address with your bid in order to work out the details.
The Supporters and the Items
Please show some love for each of these supporters by liking their Facebook pages, Instagram pages, and Twitter pages. If led, drop them a message telling them how generous they are to donate. These are some pretty great ladies! I am truly blown away by their generosity and can't thank them enough!
As always, please let me know if you have any questions. My email address is lesliebtodd@gmail.com.
Let's get this auction started!
True Love Ring by Amy Cornwell Designs (Auction)
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
I first found out about Amy Cornwell Designs jewelry through a high school friend and fell in love with Amy's jewelry. Each piece of jewelry is handmade with love and devotion. I actually own 2 pieces of her jewelry and would love to own her True Love Ring, which is up for grabs today.
True Love Ring by Amy Cornwell Designs
As described on the Amy Cornwell Designs shop:
This wonderful ring starts with twisted sterling wire that is paired with a sweet domed heart that is stamped with you and your love's initials. A beautiful reminder of the true love in your life!
You can have initials separated by an ampersand (shown), three initials or simply leave the heart blank. The letters are lowercase typewriter font (the lowercase "L" can look like a 1). There are multiple options, so please see the pictures for descriptions! The lowercase fancy font includes letters and numbers.
Important details about this ring:
1. Eventually the darkening of the letters will most likely wear off due to the doming of the heart and washing of hands. It can be left natural for a subtle look, or redarkened for a $2.50 shipping fee. I also offer DIY instructions for redarkening (with a polishing square included) as an option for a small fee.
2. These bands are thin, so it can feel like it runs large. If you're between sizes please choose the smaller size.
Check out the Amy Cornwell website, Facebook page, Instagram, and Twitter pages for more information concerning her shop.
This hand-stamped ring retails for $27.50. The bidding begins at $8.25.
"Sweet Home Alabama" by Mandipidy (Auction)
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
If you love artwork and quotes, then you will love Mandipidy's quotable art. Mandy, as she is known outside of her creative world, creates each drawing with her own beautiful style. Mom introduced Sissy and me to her work by giving us the Sweet Home Alabama picture to hang in our home. And I love it! Since then, we have purchased another print which hangs wonderfully in our home. Don't you just love this deer print referencing one of my favorite Bible verses?
The Sweet Home Alabama print is an 8x10 picture is one of Mandy's original artwork. It comes unframed on 8.5"x11" recycled white linen paper for high quality and a long-lasting product.

'We Have this Hope-Hebrew 6:19" picture by Mandipidy (Auction)
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!

Since our adoption theme is "Anchored in Faith", the "We Have this Hope-Hebrews 6:19" picture goes along great with our theme. This 8x10 picture is one of Mandy's original artwork. It comes unframed on 8.5"x11" recycled white linen paper for high quality and a long-lasting product.

Girl Matching Butterfly Bibdana and Bow Set by Lux Mundi Shop (Auction)
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
The creator of this adorable bibdana and bow set is someone who I have known since middle school. Corrie is truly a treasure and has a heart of gold. Her Lux Mundi Shop is adorable! Not only does she make bibdanas and bows, she also makes wreaths.
How adorable is this matching butterfly bibdana and bow set? The matching bow is an alligator clip, making it easy to place in your little girl's hair. The fabric is simple and yet stunning, making a bold statement. This set would spice up any little girl's everyday attire. And isn't that what we are all about as girls? bold accessories that make a statement

How adorable is this bibdana? Even though Corrie has designed this bib for a little boy, it can also be for a little girl. I love the different patterns and the simplicity of the colors. This bibdana is pieced from 4 different fabrics.

a new year and a new start to new fundraisers
It's that time again and "new" is the word. Time for another opportunity to help donate towards our adoption journey. Thank you to all who have participated in the GoPro drawing and Compelled Designs necklaces fundraisers! We were able to raise $735 through just those 2 fundraisers alone! We know many have expressed they would like to contribute so we will bring you a new fundraiser every month or so to keep it fresh, new, and exciting!
Bedsheets Fundraiser
This month we will have a few new opporutnities. The first one is the bedsheets fundraiser. Yes, we are selling 1500 thread count bedsheet sets. Buy any size (twin, full, queen, king, and california king) for $40 a set. What a steal! These sheets come in 12 different colors as listed below. We will place multiple orders over the next few months depending on the demand for this great deal. Let us know through Facebook, email, text, phone calls, etc if you are interested in buying a set or two.
"A Few of Leslie's Favorite Things" Auction
Also coming in January, we will hold an auction for a handful of my favorite things from some of my favorite "crafters" who have generously given of their one of a kind items to support our adoption. Look for this auction to take place in mid-January on the blog. Each item will have its own post so those who want to participate can comment with their bid. The items up for grabs range from hand-stamped jewelry from Amy Cornwell, baby bibs and bows from Lux Mundi Shop, handdrawn prints from Mandipidy, and festive door decor from Kissy Fish Designs. You will NOT want to miss out on bidding on all these items as they would be the perfect gift for you or someone special. An official rules post will preceed the items post so hopefully it will answer most of your questions at that time.
Compelled Designs Necklaces Round 2
Since the first batch of Compelled Designs necklaces was such a huge hit, I am ordering another batch of 20 necklaces. Stay tuned and the details for the second batch will be the same as the first.
Heather Brown Art Drawing
When we were in Hawaii, we discovered the beautiful artwork of a local artist named Heather Brown. After visiting a local art gallery in Haleiwa and seeing her work throughout the island, we fell in love with her paintings, so much so that I bought 2 shirts with her work on it. You may wonder why we didn't buy a piece of her framed art, and to that we say, it ain't cheap.

When we were emailing various people and businesses about donating items for the auction, I decided to facebook Heather Brown about our Hawaiian trip and our recent decision to adopt. To our surprise, she responded and graciously mailed us the below picture. It is an framed 11x14 picture called Lahaina Shores and retails for $250. For the record, I am jealous of whoever ends up with this picture. We will sell a limited number of tickets at a low price. These tickets are going to go fast so make sure you snag yours as soon as we make the official announcement.

We will also take questions during this time through the chat feed. If you have any questions about our adoption process, fundraisers, or anything else, feel free to ask us then.
