  • Basket Auction

    It's that time again...

    The girls are doing their basket auction for their mission trip.  They're both going to Mexico over Spring Break.  Their submissions are filled with Lemongrass products (surprise, surprise!)

    Meleia's Basket:

    MimiBasket1

    MimiBasket2

    It is called "Pamper Yourself."  It holds nearly everything that Lemongrass carries in Grapefruit Lilly or Pink Grapefruit.  In Grapefruit Lilly: Lotion, Hand Soap (in a pump), Homemade Bar Soap, Bath Crystals, and a lotion and massage bar.  Also, Pink Grapefruit sugar scrub, and Citrus Sunrise sheet and pillow spray.  It also has a pretty sage green hand towel and a decorative pump for lotion or soap.  It is valued at about $85.

    Ciera's Basket: 

     

    CieraBasket1

    CieraBasket2

    It is called "Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes."  For your head, there is a Rosemary Shampoo Bar (it's bar soap for your hair!), and Berry Lip Balm.  For your shoulders, Lavender body wash.  For your knees, Vanilla Latte Sugar Scrub.  And for your toes, a complete "Foot Fetish Kit."  It has herbal foot soak, walnut foot scrub, peppermint foot balm, and a foot shaped scrub brush.  She also has a decorative lotion/soap dispenser and a teal colored hand towel.  It is worth about $75.

    They are also each making a dessert for the silent auction.  You buy tickets to the auction to eat a meal that doesn't include dessert.  So then, as a table, or as individuals, you go bid on the desserts.  Just before the live auction starts, the dessert auction closes.  And you get to eat goodies while the live auction happens.  Ciera is making Miss Amy's Chocolate Covered Cherry Cake.  Meleia is making Miss Amy's French Vanilla/Raspberry cake.  Both will look and taste fabulous, so they should draw a pretty penny.  This should be the end of their fundraising, I think.  Fortunately, the Mexico trip only costs $450, so they haven't had to raise as much as the HS kids, who had to raise $1700 for their trip to Peru.  Ciera decided she wanted to go on the Middle School trip as a leader.  She and Meleia should have fun together (I hope).

    SO! If you want to bid on either of these baskets, let me know, and I'll bid for you by proxy like eBay does.
