Yes I'm still doing this project!

So even though it's been several months, I really am still working on this Sheepfold Project - trading and selling stuff to raise money for The Sheepfold.

http://www.thesheepfold.org/

Here's what I've been up to. I took pictures of just about everything I'm selling

and started selling stuff on Craigslist and such.

So far, I sold some of the boys' clothes I got from Cathie, the TV and CD player/radio I got from Jessica, the diamond ring I got from Jen C, and the guitar I got from Melissa and John. Counting all the $5 or item trades and the cash donations, and the original donation from my church, I raised $485 that I just donated to The Sheepfold today. But there's still a whole bunch of stuff in our guest room :) so I'll be at this for a little while longer!

Thanks for everyone who has participated or otherwise supported me and this organization! Let me know if there's anything you want to buy or donate, or if you want more info about my project!

Donation from my Dad!

My dad and mom just donated $20 to The Sheepfold! Thanks, Ma and Ba!

Pictures of all this stuff!

I've finally got some pictures up! Here's a link:

And I'm ready to start selling! Let me know if you're interested!

New Stuff and I'm Ready to Start Selling!

Hey Everyone!

Got a few more items. If you see something you want to trade, remember what you give me should be something that you think is worth equal or greater value, and any money made will be given to The Sheepfold.

However, if you see something that you'd like to buy from me, let me know too, 'cause I'm ready to start selling.

And here's the new stuff:

1. Watercolor Art Set donated by Eileen! New - has paint brushes and paints...
2. 27- inch Sanyo TV - cable and video game ready! (Only a couple of years old...Traded 'cause they got a big-screen!)
   
3. Emerson Radio/CD player with 8-inch (8" x 4.5") speakers
   
4. More sports games for the PS2
5. Green toothbrush holder, cup, soap dish, liquid soap container and bath towels for the bathroom - matched set (TV, stereo, games, and bathroom stuff all traded by Jessica and Irving for "The Sixth Sense" DVD! Thanks, guys!)
6. Fuji Digital Camera - a few years old, but not used (still in box w/ software CD and plastic) - donated by Andrea! So generous!
   
7. A 14-K gold engagement-style, solitaire diamond ring - a trade for the boys' shoes! Thanks, Jen! (The diamond is less than a 1/2 carat...Will get it cleaned this weekend...)
   

I also received a $40 donation from Kim and Robin. Thanks so much, guys!

Let me know if you 1) want to trade anything; 2) want to buy anything; 3) want to help me sell anything to someone you know, on Craig's list, or on eBay. Let your friends know I've got stuff to sell for charity, too!

Thanks for keeping up with my project!

Brand New Girls' Clothes

Marygrace has donated some brand new girls' clothes and even sent them all the way from Fillmore to the OC. Thanks so much!

Pink/white gingham print tank top (size 6), matching jean shorts (pink/white gingham belt - size 6), white tank top with flower decoration (4T), fuschia pink tank top with fruit decorations (4T), patriotic tank dress (red/white stripe on top, with white stars on dark blue on bottom - size 3T).

There is also a soft, plush "purse" with its own puppy (stuffed animal) inside! Very cute!

Email me or leave a comment if you're interested in anything...and keep looking at the list to see if there's anything you or your friends or kids would want to trade for! Feel free to pass this on to other people who might be interested in items or the project for The Sheepfold!

Used Classical Guitar!

Thanks to Melissa and John!

I traded the Knocked Up DVD for a used classical guitar! There are a couple of small dings/scrapes in the body, but it sounds OK (the strings are new). Great beginner guitar.

Leave a comment or email me if you want to trade! Pics of everything will hopefully be up this weekend. I'll keep you posted.

BTW, the Dell computer donated by Kisu runs Windows XP and has Microsoft Office on it.

New Purse

Traded with Lindsey - a new purse with a woven straw and sage colored weave and faux-leather brown trim/handles/straps. It has a beige lining; zipper - for the girls' tennis shoes.

As a side note, I'm working on getting pictures up on the web of all the items that I have to trade, so you don't need to "listen" to all my catalog-style descriptions.

Let me know if you are interested in trading something for the purse or anything else I have!
