Fantastic Finds!

Husband and I have begun the international adoption process to adopt a child from Ethiopia!  A separate adoption blog is in the works for those of you who may be interested in following us on this journey.  As you may be aware, the associated fees with international adoption can be quite high.  To help with our costs, I am starting a new page with fantastic finds for sale.   For now you can find the Fantastic Finds page here, or simply click at the top menu item titled “Fantastic Finds”.

ANY and ALL proceeds from purchases go directly towards our adoption fees.

Think of it as CTF’s consignment with a purpose.  :)   My hope is to pass along a bit of a deal to you, the reader, and at the same time provide some practical financial contribution towards our adoption costs.  Many items are new or in like new condition.  Perfect for you or a gift to a loved one!  Some of these items rarely go on sale, so hopefully you can save a little $ and yet at the same time support our adoption!  With two little ones of my own many items are baby and kid related items as that tends to be my world and focus right now.   If you are looking/searching for a deal on a particular item, let me know!   I’d love to help search and find you a deal!

Any questions, concerns, or feedback, please leave a comment OR use the contact page to contact me further!  Thanks so much!
