Our creative supporters

Share with your friends!

We are 1/3 of the way to reaching our ultimate fundraising goal of $45,000 by June 13. We can do this! I wanted to share a few ways that supporters are helping to raise funds.

Margaret Parkison: You may know Margaret from her painting of “Negra in the Sun” which was featured in the Celebrate the Seven auction last year.

Margaret has set up a donation page through Firstgiving and is giving away cards with a print of one of the paintings she has done of the Cle Elum Seven for every $30 donation.  You can find all of her work on her website. Margaret also donates 10% of the profits of the sale of any of her paintings of the Cle Elum Seven to the sanctuary, so consider that too when you’re browsing her site!

Catherine Mollyneaux just yesterday set up an Etsy shop with proceeds of her unique wildlife cards to go to the sanctuary.

Here’s the description of her work: hand embroidered  with the best quality Sulky & DMC threads. The animal decals are Single Decoupage, 2D Iris Decoupage and some 3D Decoupage. Each card is articulately finished with tissue/vellum paper inside and comes with a matching envelope

Visit her shop to learn more about these beautiful cards and to purchase.

Tamela. You may also remember Tamela’s work from her necklace “Let Freedom Swing,” featured in the Celebrate the Seven auction last year.

Tamela has set up her own Etsy shop and is featuring an array of her handmade jewelry and other items. All net proceeds on her chimpanzee items  until the end of June will be donated to the sanctuary. She’s already raised over $400!

Tamela is adding new items regularly and people are snatching them up, so be sure to visit her shop frequently!

    I am trying to find the Foxie pendant and can’t find it on any of the web sites. Whose is it? I am interested in finding out more about it. Thanks.

    That’s because someone snatched it up from Tamela’s Etsy shop! You can see it in the “sold” section of her shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop_sold.php?user_id=9572449

    I am sorry you didn’t get the Foxie pendant, Jeani. I thought of you when I saw it. I was lucky enough to get the Annie one.

    I got a pair of Tamela’s chimpanzee earrings. They arrived yesterday and I LOVE them. Be sure to get a pair while they are still available. Get them before the end of June as Tamela is giving all net proceeds to CSNW from her sales until that date.

    I love the beautiful creations these ladies have made. Since I am not creative I will just give the green stuff…lol.

    I also got a pair of the chimpanzee earrings and one of the bamboo pendants. I hadn’t seen the Foxie and Annie pendants. I guess I had better check Tamela’s shop more often.
