Handmade Purses and Clothing Auction 75% Off Starting Bid, Most Under $20, Auction Ends 11/9/14

To participate in my liquidation auction, simply type your bid in the comments on the photos in this facebook album

Dear friends, I am drifting away from designing and making one-of-a-kind purses and clothing. I will be focusing my creative efforts on jewelry and baby shoes, hats and leg warmers.

Now is your chance to own one of my original designs before I donate them to charity. 75% off retail price is the starting bid. Nearly everything is $15 - $20 with the exception of a few larger, more extravagant pieces.

These are my babies. My ideas turned from a floating thought in my head, to a hunt for the right fabric, drafting a pattern, cutting the pieces and stitching the designs together with my own two hands.

I want more than anything for my creative works to find homes out in the world; to brighten peoples' days; to spread beauty and creativity throughout your life.

Love,

Virginia

YazBerry Donates Handmade Merchandise to Girl Scout Silent Auction

You may or may not know I was a Girl Scout from Kindergarten through High School. I was a hardcore cookie salesperson and achieved both Girl Scout Silver and Gold Awards through service projects I conducted. Accordingly, when I was approached to donate merchandise to the Girl Scout Council of River Valley (my Alma Mater) Silent Auction.

Proceeds from this Silent Auction go to fund scholarships for girls unable to afford membership, uniforms or activity fees. Rock on! I think Girl Scouts is a valuable place for girls to build leadership skills and confidence. Helping girls gain access is an amazing cause.

Participants can expect to find a one of a kind purse, a one of a kind tunic, numerous pairs of handmade earrings, feather hair barrettes, a few record bowls, record cuffs, necktie belts, a change purse...all handmade with love by yours truly.

YazBerry Donates Purse & Jewelry to Laura Baker School Auction

Recently I was invited to donate some of my creations to the Laura Baker School Gala Auction. I am honored to have received the invitation and wanted to share with you the goodies up for Auction. I even made a custom box out of a recycled record album jacket. My apologies for the poor photo quality, my cell phone camera is...fuzzy at best - I forgot to photograph this at home so in the car it was just before delivery.

Up for auction at the gala is a sage clutch made from recycled upholstery samples, lined with vintage polyester yardage in carrot orange. It features a snap closure and small, silk lined zipper pocket inside. To compliment this purse I have included a matching jewelry ensemble featuring earrings with mossy coral nuggets and glossy coral nuggets in warm oranges and salmons and a coordinating sea glass pendant in a soft sea foam green.
