RESTORED IT WEDNESDAY FEATURE....BECAUSE I PROMISED


To go straight to the auction page, please go here.......

WHEW! There is a whole lotta crazy going on around this little blog of mine. Crazy, but it is absolutely a good kinda crazy!! The auction is going well so far. We have raised 225.00 for Tornado Relief and it's only Day 4. You guys are awesome!! Please note that I have extended the end date of the auction to June 1st. There are several bloggers who are participating in the Lucketts fair that will be joining us at the end. I want to make sure they have some recuperating time before they have to shell something out!
I am sure you are noticing that I am getting a little blog makeover. Kristin at Simply Whimsy is currently installing my new bling. She is doing a great job! I am hoping it will be a little cleaner and organized for you.

So as promised, I said I would feature my favorite link up from last week. I was immediately drawn to this chair created by Deana at Alchemy.  I love everything about it. It's not something that you can just walk into a furniture store and purchase. It has so much personality! Thank you Deana for linking your chair.

I hope this doesn't upset any of you and if it does, I am SO sorry. However, to prevent any confusion on the links that we have going on for the auction, I am going to be postponing Restored It Wednesday until the auction is over. I would hate for someone to link a makeover on the auction block or vice versa. I would love for you to continue to promote the auction. I cannot, by any means, do it without your help. The needs are so huge, everyday. Toiletries, food, first aid, camping supplies, gas grills, blankets, rain gear...it's amazing what is needed on a daily bases. I wanted to share this video with you from our Dream Center. These folks that are being interviewed have been working daily at Scotts School, right in the middle of Pratt City, a devastated area about 10 minutes down the interstate from me. I  want you to hear Kay's story about the 80 year old man they just found in the rubble last Saturday. I know one of these gals personally. They are the real deal and are doing an amazing job. It's not over you guys, and it won't be for a very long time. You can follow the needs of the two ministires we will be supporting with the auction money @CSMission and @BirminghamDreamCenter on twitter or facebook.



You have GOT to come back tomorrow! I have some fantastic things going up on the auction block! In the mean time, please grab a button and spread the word. Get people over here to join in the fun!
