There is still so much suffering! Let us not Forget Haiti!

I never cease to be amazed and impressed by the artist communities who come to the aid of those in need.
I am concerned that we are beginning to forget those who are in such great need in Haiti!

I applaud those artisans who are helping us to remember. Here are a few samples of the work that is available on Etsy.



Deb Batten of Firebird Flamework is making Hearts for Haiti. The more hearts you buy, the more she will make. Thanks, Deb.

















Meadowbelle Market on Etsy is also contributing income from the sales of their goods to help Haiti.

Isn't this heart beautiful?

Please shop Etsy for those who help Haiti.

Last, but not least, is Craft Hope for Haiti. This store is made up of items donated by artisans on Etsy. This store supports Doctors Without Borders. I even have an item in this store.




















This little vessel is perfect for carrying a small amount of whatever you like. I usually put a drop or two of scented oils, and the scent stays with me all day!

Thanks for looking. Please don't forget!

Craft Hope - Benefits the efforts of Doctors Without Borders in Haiti

I think we all stood by in hopeless disbelief as the newscasts from Haiti showed the devastation of the 7.3 earthquake there. We saw the dead. We saw the injured. We saw the rubble of what once was a city.

Help was and is on the way. A new store on Etsy, Craft Hope, opened on January 14 to aid the legitimate charity: Doctors without borders. 100% of the donated items to the store will go to this wonderful organization to help the poor and devastated in Haiti. The only monies that will not go to the charity will be the Etsy and PayPal fees.

Artisans on Etsy are donating their crafts and wares. Here are some examples. I can't promise that these will be in the store when you read this blog because in 3 days, the store has had 280 sales and grossed over $4,000 for Doctors without Borders.

When I last checked, my vessel was still in the store. If you choose to buy this vessel, it will come with an 18 inch silver chain so that you can use it immediately. This isn't the only thing in the store. I'm only going to give you some of the samples of what is in the store. If you can, please consider buying something to help those in tremendous need in Haiti.


















This print, called Hope Print, is currently listed in the store for $33. It's beautiful! Your money will buy more than this print. It will buy hope for Haiti.











This ring is amazing! It's made from silver and it's priced at $360. Even if you can't afford this beautiful ring, look around the store. There are so many other items to be seen. Haiti needs our help.














These beautiful earrings made from pearls and silver are called : Bloom.
They are gorgeous and priced at $30. Wouldn't you look great in these earrings? If you think you'd like something else, please look all over the store. You might just find that perfect gift for you or someone else.

Just so you, as I wrote this blog, there were 4 more sales at Craft Hope. Please consider adding to the sales totals. I would love to see this store exceed over 1,000 sales in a week. It will help! Please be as generous as your budget allows. Thank you.
