help_japan fandom auction

[elanna9]

I won several items at the help_japan fandom auction! I had actually gone a couple of times and been daunted by the number of offers ... but the delicious index made it SO much easier to go in and look for items of interest. So, I wound up totally under the wire, combing through the listings at about 2 am on Thursday morning. :P

I am glad I did, as I won:

• a crocheted angry bird! :) :) :) (along with Plants vs. Zombies, the most awesome game EVER)
• fingerless gloves (look how gorgeous & here too)
• a small piece of furniture of my choice in the shabby chic style
• a crocheted cherry blossom bookmark & also a crocheted octopus (apparently I need to have random crochted items :P)
• beta services (yayayayayayay!)

I have never participated in a fandom auction before, but this was fun and obviously for a very good cause. I didn't make it through the art or graphics listings, so if there is a second round, I will definitely be checking those out. But I had a ton of fun browsing the "interesting stuff" category (obviously...) There are so many talented people out there!!!

I am making my donations now; we had donated some money already, but more is good. I will get a corporate match for these also, so if any of the folks who listed any of the above items are reading here, my donations will be doubled and the entire amount is thanks to you.
