eBay benefit auction for victims of Gulf oil spill disaster

Your help in promoting this benefit auction is most appreciated!!!

During September and October of 2010, artist Patsy Croft organized the Jewelers for the Gulf project, an online auction of contemporary art jewelry, of which the proceeds were donated to Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans’ Gulf Oil Spill Disaster Fund, to benefit the many victims of the Gulf oil disaster.


I and my writing partner, Peggy Krzyzewski, decided we’d like to donate the Princess Necklace featured in our book, Making Mixed Media Art Charms & Jewelry, to this exciting endeavour.
Sadly, this project coincided with the sudden and untimely demise of my computer’s hard drive...so we missed the project’s deadline.
We still want to do what we can to help, so I am listing this necklace in a 7-day auction, with 100% of the proceeds going to Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans’ Gulf Oil Spill Disaster Fund.
This necklace measures 17 inches long and features eight limited edition mixed media art charms by Christine Hansen and Peggy Krzyzewski, on a silvertone base metal chain with a lobster clasp.

Shipping is free.
