I take back what I said earlier: I would absolutely sell my craft creations, and by "sell" I mean "trade for something I equally value". Do you like my punk rock giraffe stuffie? You can have one for $81... or a bag full of coreopsis seeds. A knit fringe lumberjack hat? Thats $195... or a jar of local honey. Ill sew new clothes for all of your kid's dolls, usually $300+ in labor and material, but Id rather they draw me a really cool picture that I can hang on my fridge.

My name is Tarneem Sami from Gaza, a mother of three. I lost my beloved husband, Ahmed, who was martyred while trying to support us. Since then, life has become a daily struggle.
Forced to leave our home in Shuja’iyya, we moved from Rafah to Khan Younis, then to Deir al-Balah. Now, we live in a tent with few essentials, fighting to provide food, water, and medicine for my children.
With a heavy heart, I ask for your help, however small, or to share our story with others. Despite the hardship, I believe in the kindness of people.
May God bless you.
❤️💚🖤🤍

DESPITE IT ALL, WE HAVE EACH OTHER
no matter how much hopelessness they corner us into, they cannot stop us from taking care of each other.
somewhere to start today is by helping nada, who is less than 40% of the way towards her goal.
https://gofund.me/e06f31d3
please continue to share mutual aid, whether its in your own neighborhood or across the sea. please continue to find both what's urgent and what's beautiful in the world.
thank you always, take care.
