Etsy & Stellan

Most of you already know this, but I LOVE Etsy (www.etsy.com ) about as much as I love Ebay. Etsy is all things handmade, and that makes it so fun to shop for the kids.
Recently, several Etsy sellers decided to come together and send some of their proceeds to Stellan's family (in case you aren't familiar with Stellan, please go to www.mycharmingkids.net to read his story) for medical expenses and such. I loved the idea of being able to help the "McKfamily" somehow, so I went and shopped a bit.

I got Caroline some of the most adorable crochet hair clippies at great prices. They also have a ton of baby items (onesies, burp cloths, wippee cases), as well as jewelry and a few items of home decor. There are also some CUTE organic shirts that I'm keeping an eye on for Caitlin.
To shop for all things being sold in Stellan's name, just go to Etsy.com and type "Stellan" into the seach bar. All of the sellers currently participating will have items pop up for your viewing pleasure.

I'm sure more and more sellers will be jumping on the "Stellan Fund" bandwagon soon, so I'll continue to go back and look in anticipation.
I just thought it would be nice to do something...anything...for this family, even though I am all the way in Texas.
I did, however, see that another family (the call themselves the B Family) went to the Cadillac Ranch and wrote Stellan's name on a Cadillac for his name gallery...that's SO COOL!!! Check out Stellan's name gallery too if you have a chance. It's quite impressive!
