Hi Ladies....do any of you have any ideas for something I could donate to my school's Mother's Day Tea silent auction? I'm thinking for around the $10-15 mark. Homemade cards etc. and a stamp?? I'd love to hear your ideas!! Thanks. The tea isn't until May 6th.
Eraina - I've done a couple silent auction items. 1 - a cute basket with some sets of cards each bundled in a pretty ribbon (birthday, sympathy, get well, blank, etc). 4-6 per set, depending on what group I'm doing them for. 2- a decorated photo box filled with note cards, a 5x7 decorated note book, a post it note holder & pen, maybe a decorate frame. You get the idea. People love this stuff.

Thank you for those couple ideas!! They have given me some more to think about....I also searched and found some more ideas in other topics!! I think I will up the value of the gift though...make it more appealing.
How about a flower boquet? If you look under Chris Williams pictures you will see one. I made one for my daughter's sorority's silent auction and it went well. You can put it in a basket or a ceramic type bowl, I got mine at the dollar store for $1.00 so there wasn't much expense involved. Stamp the flowers and add the suckers. I also made cards and put them in a basket. They went well also.
I donated a decorated paint can to my son's school silent auction . I did a baby theme. You could do one with bath things, chocolate, just about anything.
I am doing a family night paint can with wrapped microwave popcorn, video giftcard, and candy in a paint can. I am attaching a sticker on teh bottom with my info as well as a blurb inside about making it. I am also doing an SU can with a gift cert., and catalog

Just a question for all of you. If you dontate to a silent auction do you have to use the angel stamp on the back? I am donating a basket of cards to a Girl Guide dinner to be auctioned off and want to do it right.
