Raffle prizes- All the way from Australia !

This lovely raffle prize came all the way from Australia - courtesy of Linda ! the girls from the dance class will love this one Linda , clever lady ! We have had it wrapped all in cellophane and added a big bow- it was quite hard to photograph as the light bounces off the cellophane but believe me it looks gorgeous ! It comprises of all sorts of gorgeous things- a cuddly kangaroo with a baby in its pouch, a koala bear , clip on koalas, a bag ,notepads ,wrappping paper, a boomerang and cards ! Linda wrote apologizing that she had taken a few things out because of the postage costs [ around $72.40 ] and wrote it wasn`t one of my brightest ideas-I could have sent you a donation -!! on the contrary I think it will make a fantastic centre piece on the night and attract lots of people to buy our raffle tickets ! Well done and thanks Linda you`re a star !

Hi Janet, thank you so much for visiting my blog and taking the time to leave a lovely comment. This raffle prize is fab, how generous. It certainly makes a change from the usual things you get as raffle as prizes, I hope you raise loads of money.

I had thought of sending something, but was concerned about the duty tax you would have to pay and I could lie about the value.

Now that IS cute, cute, cute!

I hope your day went great!

This should generate a lot of interest for the 'cause' Janet. Good luck and good job.

What a gorgeous thing to receive. And how generous and sweet by Linda to send it.
Smiling at the sight of all the typically 'Aussi' things in there..! :)

Have a great rest of the week.
