Japan Quake Appeal Auction

Ebi-kun really wanted to get involved so he spent the morning painting this beautiful butterfly, it is painted with acrylic on board and is approximately 21cm x 29cm. I will seal it with a layer or two of lacquer. It will be signed and dated by the artist (maybe worth a fortune in the future if he becomes famous!)










Auction closes at 12.00pm Japan time 26th March
Bids are to be made in GB₤
Starting bid is ₤10
To make a bid leave a comment on this post, with your bid amount, it must be higher than the previous comment. You must also leave a valid email address, you can write the address in the format of 
ethel79 ‘at’ hotmail ‘dot’ com

If you make a mistake or forget to add you email address please delete the first post and re-write it.

Once the auction has closed the winning bidder will be announced and contacted, the winner must make the payment and send proof of payment within 48 hours. If proof of payment is not made within 48 hours then the item will go to the second highest bidder. The donation must be paid to Global Giving. For help with the donation you can refer to this post

You can make the donation either in dollar or pound but if you do so in dollar it must be the equivalent value as the winning pound bid.

Myself or any other of the auction/raffles raising money for this appeal are in no way affiliated with global giving, that's just our chosen method of getting funds safely to the affected area.

  7. I wasn't going to Nanna and Pappy but Jo has just put a heartstrings post up and I'm feeling some pressure. Remember I'm a kiwi and so I think in NZ$ and then convert and realize OMG, I'm actually paying 3 times what I thought!!

    good cause, good cause.
    Even 100
