Kate's Bedding is up for Auction!

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

This lovely woman  (my good friend) is trying to raise money for orphans in China who need surgery. This cause is so near and dear to my heart because I have made many friends who have adopted children with special needs from China. Daleea contacted me about a donation just as I was trying to decide what to do with Kate's crib bedding. I LOVE this bedding but it is too big to keep.  So, I am keeping the blanket that came with it but I have donated the bumper pads, dust ruffle and sheets (and bought a new one to donate).  This set was custom made by New Arrivals and the fabrics are no longer available.  Everything has been cleaned and it is in perfect condition.   

Nursery new 012

The bumper pads are very thick and cushy.  They are pink and white toile on the outside and white popcorn chenille on the inside.  The ties are pink and white gingham.

The dust ruffle is pink and white gingham and it has an adorable daisy trim on the edge.


Beautiful baby and matching dress not included.

  4. Kim,
    You are so wonderful to donate this gorgeous bedding to support Daleea's auction. I don't know if we will be getting a baby or a toddler, so I don't know what to get. I have a crib and a toddler bed and I don't know which one I will be using.

  9. I know it's hard to part with but I'm sure you are happy about it knowing where the money is going! Did you get the Cherry Blossom bedding for Kate?

  13. Your post about Kate's birthday gift inspired me. Anna was just invited to a party via Evite. There was a no gifts please on the bottom. When I replied I said that a donation to half the sky was made in her honor. Maybe this will inspire other guests to do the same. FYI Ford motors is matching donations right now. Jenny Bowen has the link to Global giving on her Half the Sky website (Super easy and fast) :)

  14. I am sure it will bring in a great contribution for this special fund!

    Precious pictures of Kate in her crib. With pictures like those, you could see ice to an eskimo.

  16. Lots to be thankful for!

    Beautiful photos, Kim. I want to learn so much more about photography as well. I find that it combines my love of art, beauty and my children (who are, to me, the most interesting and beautiful of subjects). I love making photo cards of flowers and nature, too. You asked about my lens....I don't have a macro lens YET. I was just using my 18-200 VR lens.
