Hiya folks... Warning this is a long
post....
Sorry I’ve been quiet. It’s been a
mixture of being busy with orders and my head being all over the place with the
events over the last couple of weeks! Blimey, just a couple of weeks? I don’t
know about you but it already feels like months!
My first reaction was what can I do?
how can I help?
Well I can’t drive to taking aid to
Ukraine is out of the question.
I belong to a massive group of artists and crafters and we have our own
group, we all decided that we would do what we do best and make stuff! The
profits or a large proportion of the items sold would go to the Help Ukraine
Emergency Appeal (I’ll add a link at the end of this post).
Anyhow, off everyone went to make and shake and some
got their items listed for sale.... and then it happened! The trolls hot out
hard. I saw the most awful comments accusing people of ‘cashing in’ on
tragedy, trying to make a fast buck and serious threats. My friend's business
pages were being trolled and many closed their pages for fear of being
tarnished forever.
I decided I
wasn’t mentally able to cope with being accused of any of this so I shelved the
idea of doing anything. But every night I go home and the terrible acts against
humanity continue and I really HAVE to do something! Ok si I’ve made my own
donation, but that’s just a drop in the ocean. I’m not financially able to
donate my products for free, but I can offer a small selection of products and
donate a large amount of the profit to the cause.
So at the risk of being called worse than poo I am
going to offer these products over the next couple of days. Check out the COLLECTION HERE
Perhaps I won’t sell any.... but maybe.... just
MAYBE I will sell a lot and together we’ll do our bit to help.
If for whatever reason you find this distasteful....
please don’t judge me.... just scroll on by. I’m not forcing or pressurising
anyone to buy (It’s not my way). Thanks to those on my personal page who have
encouraged and supported me to do this. Much love and peace to you all xox
