As many of you know, every year we do some sort of fundraiser for World Vision. The idea is to get my older girls involved in helping a charity of their choice at Christmas time. They usually pick something out of the World Vision catalogue to donate to. This year, as well as last they have chosen to donate to rescue and protect sexually exploited children. To rescue two children it is $150. We would like to help rescue as many as possible. I try as much as is possible to have the girls involved in making whatever it is we are creating for that year. I have been trying to figure out this years items since early October. Here is a list and some pictures of some of the items we are offering this year.
These are cute little woodland creature christmas ornaments. Lilli actually stitched the squirrel. The set of six is $15. Individual ornaments are $3 each.
We are also selling Pumpkin Spice, root beer float (my favorite), cookies and cream, and mint chocolate fudge for $5 a square. I have a ton of this fudge in my freezer and could bring it home next weekend for anyone who is interested.
This is Pumpkin Butter and it is amazing. There is no actual butter in it and it is similar to Apple Butter. I am selling 250ml jars for $6 and 500ml jars for $9. I can bring a few home next week, but mostly when we come home for Christmas. I am reluctant to mail jars however.
I also make these adorable owls. This is the middle size which I think I will sell for $10. This one has already been sent to my friend as a baby gift. The larger ones are $15 and the little baby ones are $8. I haven't made a baby one yet, but I will post a picture as soon as I am done. It is in the process.
These are the ones I made for my kids last Easter, so they are not that fresh looking. They are all slept with and well loved. These are easy to mail, but I will add on shipping cost depending where you live.
Anyways I hope you will all help support our fundraiser this year.
My girls giving their speeches in public speaking class. I am so proud of them, especially Miete who has serious anxiety and just general social issues. They worked hard and spoke well. Lilli on frogs, and Miete on why Monkeys make good pets.
