You’ve seen the ‘Pay it Forward’ posts, right? Well, instead of sending out something handmade to her top five respondees, Brenda at Mira Narnie has offered to make a softie to donate on your behalf to the Hope Softies drive run by Mon Petit Poppet.
So if you love the idea of the Hope Softies but are HOPELESS at SOFTIES, this is your opportunity to contribute.
Remember, when you’re paying it forward, ‘handmade’ is a very generous word. Made by hand, remember? Bake a slice, make a pet rock, buy some pretty ribbon and tie it in a bow… you don’t have to wear clever crafty clogs to be a ‘handmade’ guru.
Pay it forward.
Oh, and speaking of being really, really nice, do you think if you have a moment, you could pop over to Sugar Coat It and vote for my sister And then there were four in the side bar? She really wants a blog makeover and if she doesn’t win Melissa’s then I will have to do it… so, pretty please?!

That girl is the simply the most amazing creature! LOve, love, love her!!! Thanks so much for supporting my wee drive. It certainly is softie central here at the moment. Wishing you a grand and happy weekend. Steph 🙂 x x

Softies are much harder to make than they look!! One slightly wonky eye & it’s a goner, it’s not unique or quirky, they just look wrong. Great cause, love Posie
Brenda @ Mira Narnie says
thanks honey for trying – needless to say I’m making the softies anyway – adopted or not 😉

I came because I LOVE these softie dolls. And I love your vote flog. Haha. Sisters, who’d have ’em.

Geez, Bren. Your charming idea to make a Hope Softie to give to the flood kids on behalf of five lucky people has been like detonating a nuclear blog bomb. Where is everyone?!? Hello… hellloooooooo…. echo, echo, echo, echo… x
Brenda @ Mira Narnie says

Nope, Bren. Just us and the crickets. I am amazed at what a lead balloon your darling softies idea has been. AMAZED. It’s actually kind of funny… ? x
