Official Regretsy Notecards

What if I were to tell you that you can now buy Regretsy notecards? It would be pretty exciting, wouldn’t it? Yes, I think it would.

And what if I told you that these notecards feature artwork by Etsy artists featured on this site? That would make you feel all tingly, wouldn’t it? Yes, I think it would.

And what if I told you that ALL profits from the sale of these cards benefit these very artists? That would maybe cause you to soil your pants a little bit, wouldn’t it? You don’t have to answer that one.

In any case, it’s all true. Our friends at Cerebral Itch have put together a fine assortment of four designs, featuring some of the most popular Regretsy posts. Or, if you prefer, you can buy all of one design. Then you don’t have to choose who gets the one with the woman and the bear. You can give them to everyone in your prayer circle.

A fabulous gift for only $10 that supports 4 artists who aren’t afraid to laugh at themselves. It’s what I would buy all my friends this Christmas, if I had any.

Toys for Tots

As you know, we had an Ebay auction last week. The winning bid was matched by Regretsy, and the money was used to hire an Etsy seller to make toys for Toys for Tots.

Well, I found a great seller, who has a shop called Childish Thoughts. She very generously made 20 sets of coloring toys for the kids, including coloring books, crayon sets and crayon rolls, which are sort of like hand sewn tool belts for kids to keep their crayons in.

Rather than waste money on shipping, I asked her to donate them to a location in her area, and send us pictures. She wrapped all the sets individually in cello bags, and they were accepted at Toys for Tots today. She even had her 5 year old help out, which is incredibly cute.

In fact, the whole thing went perfectly, until he realized they were about to leave Toys R Us without getting anything for him.

Thanks to everyone who participated, and remember this seller when looking for kid’s toys this Christmas!
