chiptooth Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) I finally managed to round up everything that was donated for my "Nothing Better Than Handmade For Finding A Cure" basket for a raffle to benefit my son's relay for life team. Well, almost rounded everything up. My mom asked me to wait one more day so she could finish knitting a dish cloth. I packaged everything from one person individually and attached a business card if one was sent or the person's name and where they were from. It is hard to see all the items as I have them pretty jammed in the basket, but I listed all the items on the inside of the basket card. I also lined and trimmed the basket.

trishsmecca Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Very nice - I was looking at pink easter grass yesterday thinking about breast cancer baskets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiptooth Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 I'm a step ahead of you. I bought a few bags at Walmart after easter with just that in mind. I also picked up a few pink wicker easter baskets as well. The things in this basket were too heavy to put grass under and you wouldn't have seen any of it anyway, but I had enough duplicates of things that I'm going to make up a smaller basket to use at for our chinese raffle and I'll use some of it then and our team has to provide a basket at the relay for their chinese auction. I'm making a candle basket for that. Come to think of it , I didn't really buy grass, I bought pink paper shred. I also bought a few pink and purple florals and such at Michaels the day after valentines to use for relay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
