I now declare this bazaar open. 😂
Shop HERE
Or read my blurb first, if you have time.
This is the first batch of the fixed-price sale! We have an amazing number of items on offer for you, all for fixed-prices. There are 18 different offerings, made or designed by fans, for fans. Multiples of the items are available – some more, some less, but a total of 200+ individual pieces. All prices are per 1 item, and include postage and packing. You can buy multiples of the same item (via the “quantity” button in the individual listing) – or put several different items into your shopping basket before you pay. That will make the shopping process easier and faster for both you and me 🙂. You don’t have to register for an account there in order to buy on Etsy! In order to save on shipping costs, I will try to combine Etsy purchases with eBay wins. Therefore processing times have been extended to 1-3 business days.
The fundraiser items are clearly labelled so you know that you are buying an item whose proceeds go into our donations pot. The listing thumbnails have the red-bauble-logo (see right) in the thumbnail image and mention the hashtag #HoHoHolidayFundRAiser in the title. Also, each listing descriptions starts with the note “THIS IS A #HoHoHolidayFundRAiser ITEM!!!!!”. Note: As this is my own Etsy shop, there will be other items visible that are *not* part of the fundraiser. So look out for the #HoHoHolidayFundRAiser hashtag.
All items are fan-made or fan-designed, some commercially made, many of them hand-made and therefore vary in details. For items with variations simply click the variation you prefer upon check-out. The available variations are illustrated so you know which one to choose.
Once again the reminder that a second batch of items will be released tomorrow morning at about 9am GMT. Because hand-made items can not be replicated as such, please be aware the tomorrow’s batch may not have entirely identical items to this first batch, but may differ a little. The individual number of items available quoted below refers to *this batch only*.
Here are descriptions and direct links to the items, in no particular order:
ETA: Have added a note where items are already sold out. Sorry. Some items will be restocked, see note where applicable!
The perfect way to display a picture of your favourite chaRActer: A handmade photo holder with two images of either Thorin Oakenshield or Guy of Gisborne. Lavishly decorated in the appropriate style, it even has a little velcro fastener to keep the holder closed. 2 colour photos inside a folder made from card stock. Made by Anne.
SORRY – SOLD OUT
Another year, another magnet Especially when featuring Richard Armitage! These magnets are specifically made for this fundraiser and feature RA on his 50th birthday. An occasion to remember. Two different versions are on offer – with RA close up, or RA eating cake. Choose your favourite in check-out – or get both for to cover all bases. Donated by Esther.

Guy of Gisborne’s wolf head clasps on his jacket and gloves are unforgettable. And now you can wear one of those as a brooch. Not the original metal clasp, but a faithful reinvention in wood. Expertly laser cut and hand-buffed with gold paint. The brooch has a pin attached to the back and is light-weight, so will sit nicely on any garment. Made by Rachel.

RA could be hanging out with your Christmas tree! These ornaments have been laser-cut specifically for our fundraiser. They come in two variations – for #TeamShrubbery with short hair and beard, and with longer hair but hiding behind a collar. A gorgeous addition to your tree, or a lovely fan item all year round. This was already an item in last year’s sale. Made by Rachel.

A teeny tiny sticker for huge fans of Richard. These stickers of RA are a recent b/w pic with beard and turtleneck and 2 x 2cm in size. With the cabochon effect they look particularly high-end. And since we don’t want you to hoard you stickers, they come in a pack of 3, so you can stick a couple on your surface of choice – and still have 1 left over to hoard. Donated by Young.

A huge massive thank you to the kind donors, designers and makers of our sale items!

Oh, and if you should have read until here… Guess what, the auctions are over and the result is well over the watershed. Boom. You deserve the edit – with thanks to all bidders, buyers, winners, tweeps, commenters, cheer-onners and lurkers. Details under wraps until we get the final figure from the sale and postage/fee decuctions.
