Auction INFO

Hello all
Here is a report on The KMFMB FUND


Here is how much money we have raised so far.

Bracelet Sales income $523.48

Ebay Auction Income as of 1/31/11 $378.03

There are 2 auctions left

The first one finishes in 1 day at about 9 pm west coast time and has 6 items

The second finishes in 4 days and has 11 items

These are some very cool things and as you can see we could sure use some enthusiastic bidders and help get these totals up higher.

I wanted to raise this money so the teachers could get paid sooner and perhaps there will be more to invest in all of the things required to keep art and soul Moving forward. Please take the time to contribute to this event.

I have donated 2 months of my time putting it all together and each artist has put in hours of time to create the cool artwork offered to you on EBay

Each artist took the time ,money and effort to help donate the KMFMB Fund. Now we are leaving in your hands

Auction Items Art & Soul

Sorry to announce I will be unable to auction the 5 nights at the Embassy Suites Hotel on Ebay . Legal requirements require I handle this in a different manner. Please go to Ebay and continue to bid on the wonderful items still up and continuing to be posted. There are some beautiful things and you will be sorry you missed this once in a lifetime opportunity to bid on the 4 Fat books. I have spent hours looking and enjoying each page. I am truly amazed at the time, effort and scope of each artist.
Keep tuned this is merely a speed bump in moving forward

Thanks Peg

 Speaking of Family my daughter has been keeping me current on all aspects of social media and now dragging me into making a video. It was fun and I hope I did not screw up your names too badly
 Please enjoy our late night adventures and PLEASE GET OUT THERE AND BID THIS STUFF UP

BIDDING ON Auction Items

  Dear Reader

.The auctions are not live yet I am hoping to start them today and will put up the information  on this blog, on facebook and on the Art and Soul groups on yahoo to begin the bidding after they are ready.
 Items are still coming in and I am writting descriptions an taking measurments to assure you  know what you are bidding on

I put  items on my blog so folks have the time to get a preview of  all of the lovely items before the auction begins

Please understand
I am working a full time job as well as trying to keep the rest of the world moving smoothly and doing this in my spare time.

So if you can help promote this auction I would really appreciate it. Send your friends to this blog to preview  all of the wonderful donated items

Monday  1/17/2011 a Photographer ( Esse Lyle) donated 9 hours of time getting the photographing all the items.  This was a big undertaking and Esse is a wonderful photographer. Great photographs will let you see the fab items in their full glory and help you decide what you would like to bid on.

 Today I have another person coming to get the auctions listed and ready to go live. I am running as fast as I can and my goal is to get everything ready to go live today. I may space items out so everyday  5 items go up for auction but I am waiting for the results of today to make those decisions. 

THANK YOU THANK YOU TO EVERYONE who has helped make this happen
 Peg
