Queensland Flood Relief Appeal auction album on Facebook.
Well, that's a wrap!
The auction finished Monday 9:00am 24th January - all winners have been contacted and the majority have already processed their donation/winning bid onto the official Premier's Queensland Flood Relief Appeal website.
I'm thrilled to announce that the final auction total is...
$3689.00
Wow.
Never had I ever imagined my little jewellery label could drum up so much generosity from people!
Thankyou to everyone who got involved with the auction - such a buzz and all for a very worthy cause!
Just a quick little update on the That Vintage Facebook Auction to raise funds for the Queensland Flood Disaster Relief Appeal...
The current bidding tally is sitting at a gigantic: $2731.00
That Vintage has donated 50 auction lots up for grabs - two pendants have hit the $100.00 bidding mark already... this is incredible.
I am completely in awe of people's generosity - all for a very worthy cause.
So thankyou, to every single person who has bidded, "shared" and "liked" the That Vintage Facebook Auction.
It has been just over 24 hours since the first album of auction items went up on the That Vintage Facebook page.
Since then - three more albums have been added, a total of 46 items and the bidding tally is sitting at just over a massive $2000.00
I am incredibly moved by how people have responded to this idea.
I am incredibly proud to call myself an Australian (well half of!) and love that this country is built on mate-ship, generosity and compassion.
I never in my wildest dreams, thought that this sort of money would be raised with this auction event.
It is incredibly inspiring.
I hope it inspires you.
Thinking of you Queensland xo
Caboolture - Queensland, floods of January 2011. Wow.
I just can't believe the response to the Facebook auction lots that I put up before 6pm tonight...
People's generous bids are just making me more and more inspired to donate more goods for auction - I can't believe it! I'm genuinely shocked at the response! Can you tell?!
The tally of the bidding total at this point in time sits at $770.00 - wow.
WOW.

Have you done your bit?!
I've been watching the horrible waves of water wash over parts of Queensland on the television. Some of the images have really got to me - the family of three stuck (literally) and stranded inside their 4WD in the middle of what looks like a muddy lake, the people waving from on top of the roof of their house which is almost 100% submerged in water, the constant updates from my fellow crafters and tweeters who are in and around the Brisbane area as the waters start to seep in... all of this has just made my skin prick up with oodles of goosebumps.
So, That Vintage is doing its bit by having a 12 item Auction to raise funds for the Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal on the That Vintage Facebook page.
The auction has started and will end on Monday, 24th January at 9am EDST.
There is plenty of time to save the shrapnel from your daily coffee hit, and bid it on a piece of That Vintage that you get to keep, knowing that your bid is going to a good cause - be sure to tell all of those who you think would like to get in on the action and help out!
I'm safe and dry down in Tasmania, so this is the least I could do.
What have you done to help those in need?
