If I made a second bookshelf, and had a raffle for it, would you guys be interested? For every $5 donation, you’d get your name entered (with all donations going directly to Damien). What do you think?

Auction winners (2/2): Congratulations to @yerbamansa.bsky.social for winning our beautiful shawl, and @alexis44.bsky.social , who won the mini Ed and Stede! Congrats and THANK YOU to our winners. Please DM me so we can talk out the details!

Congratulations, auction winners! The auction is closed! The winners are: For the bookshelf: @ghostalservice.bsky.social For the embroidery: @petrichorca.bsky.social (1/2)

Only three hours to go on our tiny auction! So, when I started making this bookshelf, I thought it would be funny to have Stede’s books glued in place to look like they were falling. But as I was about to glue them, I tipped the shelf too far, and… well…. They fell. (Cont. below.)

Here is a thread for all of our auction items! (Thanks, @ghostalservice.bsky.social , for doing this, as I am Bluesky illiterate!)

*ahem* Hello, sorry to bother you all again, but I wrote that the auction ends at 12 p.m. central US time. It’s actually 12 a.m. central US time. So, you’ve got plenty of time to bid on the items you want while helping our friend Damien! Thank you!

Have you ever wanted to write in a teeny tiny journal? Well, you can if you win “Stede Bonnet’s bookshelf”! The miniature bookshelf, along with three other amazing items, are up for auction right now! Auction ends TONIGHT! Place your bids!

If you would like to bid on an auction item, but don’t want to do it publicly, feel free to DM me, and I will bid on your behalf. Thank you!

Tiny auction item #4: Stede Bonnet’s bookshelf features a shelf of books that open to reveal tiny nautical images. Four of the books show replicas of atlases from the 1500s. The “Captain’s Log” book was made by hand, using images from old maps and nautical diaries.

Tiny auction item #3: Even David Jenkins has a pair of tiny Ed and Stede, but now you can own a set, too! Made and donated by @rebelsophie.bsky.social, these guys are our tiniest auction item.

Tiny auction item #2: This gorgeous scarf was created and donated by @kninjaknitter.bsky.social. It’s inspired by the famous painting, “The Scream”, and while it is very long and technically not a “small” item the artist noted it can fit in a coffee cup. LOL!

Auction item #1: This incredible embroidery depicts Ed, tangled in Kraken tentacles, being rescued by our favorite mermaid Stede. This piece was created and donated by @ghostalservice.bsky.social, and bids should be placed in the comments here.

A “tiny auction” will make a big difference, for our friend Damien Gerard! Since there are only four items, auction items will be posted here and everyone will be able to bid in the comments. Bids will be accepted from now until 12 p.m. central US time on Tuesday. Here we go….

Here is the last “sneak peek” of Stede Bonnet’s bookshelves. Hoping to auction this off next week, and will post more details tomorrow!
