Kelly, can you give us an update, please. Was Richard's bid successful? :) Which pieces of Gini's cat art are "claimed" and which are left?
Thank you so much,
Elyse
COME ON FOLKS!
This is for a very good cause.
As Elyse said, what is still available? I think she was going to remove pics as the various pieces were bid on, but we're on page 2 here - a recap would be helpful. :)
I'll log on my laptop in a little while and update what is left on page 2. :)
Finally, I have a chance to come to PT and update this thread. Sorry it's taken me so long. Here we go…
I have the following "Cat Art" left:
#1: Copper Kitty - Candle Holder **Richard has BID $70.00 for this item**
This measures 20" tall, 15.5" long, and 6.75" wide. Weight: 5 lbs

#2: **Cat Chasing Mouse Metal Decoration has a new home with Maggie (Pinot's Mom)**
#4: Six Ceramic Kitty Coasters **Richard has BID $30.00 for this item**
I haven't measured these, but I'd say they are no more than 4" x 4". Weight: Less than 1 lb

#6: Book - The Complete Book of Cats by Colin Dempsey has a new home with Maggie (Pinot's Mom)
#8: Framed Cross-Stitch Tabby Cat
Cross Stitched Tabby cat framed. I was thinking if the matting didn't suit your colors/theme, you can easily change them out to something that goes well in your home. The frame is nice, but this too can be changed to suit your home/tastes. :)
It measures 12.25" x 11.5" and weighs 1.5 lbs

I'm at my image limit, so I'll continue in the next post. 2 more left…those gorgeous Sugar paintings. :love:
#10: Sugar at Christmas, 1995
This one is soooo pretty. I always think of Tucker's portraits of Sugar when I remember my times in Gini's home. He was very talented and I feel like I know Sugar because of these paintings (and Gini's stories).
It measures 17" x 18.5" and weighs 2 lbs

#11: Sugar Sleeping **Richard has BID $50.00 for this item**
GORGEOUS!!! I just love this! It evokes relaxation when I see it. And…the desired to crawl into it and curl up with Sugar! ;)
It measures 21" x 26.5" and weighs 4.5 lbs.

ALL of these are much nicer/prettier in person. I have issues with glare/reflection - sorry about that, guys. I've been offering to people to remove them from their frames so shipping is less expensive. Some of the frames are kinda old and may not match your homes anyway. So let me know. :)
OK, bid away if you are so inclined. Annie and Emma will be benefitting as I'm giving everything above the cost to ship to Cathy.
I don't know if I'm supposed to bid here or PM, but ... $30 for the cat/mouse (2) and $20 for the book (6). Thanks- Maggie.
OK, I've updated the post with the photos, here is a summary 'at-a-glance' for those interested. There are two items still available…bid away. Or if you prefer, you are welcome to PM or email me. :)
Current List of Items (and their status):
#1 - Copper Kitty: $70.00 BID (Richard)
#4 - Six Ceramic Kitty Coasters: $30.00 BID (Richard)
#8 - Framed Cross-Stitch Tabby: AVAILABLE
#10 - Sugar at Christmas: AVAILABLE
#11 - Sugar Sleeping: $50.00 BID (Richard)
I've just finished ordering boxes from the post office to ship the items to everyone. :) Just an FYI. The plan is to mail them no later than this weekend as their website said they'd be here in 7-10 days. I'm hoping its a lot closer to 7 (or less). This will give payments time to get to my PayPal account or mailbox.
:D
