S.O.S. Thrift

Closed for the Season

2010-11-14T14:08:00.000-07:00

Hello all!
First, a HUGE THANK YOU to all that you have done to help! I have sent in more than $200 to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society Gulf Rescue Campaign with a few more to add to it! You can read what is happening with the campaign HERE.

We all put in a lot of work behind the scenes and I appreciate everyone's help on this project. I love S.O.S. Thrift because there are plenty of S.O.S.'s in this world today and we could respond to more than one of them. So, until next time,
Enjoy the season!
peace

SOLD!! 12!! It's A Vegan Dog's Life Book

2010-07-07T11:51:00.006-06:00

Don’t let the title fool you, this book is for dogs even if they aren’t vegan!

Some things you will find:

Over 60 treat recipes
Grooming recipes (toothpaste, coat spray, pest control, etc.)
Car safety tips
Road trip tips
Helping your dog and yourself to cope with loss
Eco tips to reduce your dog’s paw print
How to make a first aid kit for dogs
Vegan foods to avoid feeding dogs
Hiking tips
Winter and summer safety tips
Natural pest control
How to start brushing your dog’s teeth
Making plans for if your dog survives you
An online shopping resource guide for cruelty-free doggie goods
A resource section for books, forums and other websites

As you can see, there’s something useful for every dog guardian. Plus, every dog can enjoy the treats made from these recipes. There have been many non-vegan taste testers that have given these treats “two paws up“!

All recipes have been revised several times until they meet both Molly's standards and the approval of my her canine companions. One of them is quite the picky little girl, which made it a challenge to come up with healthy treats that she loved. She has given each and every recipe her “paw of approval”.

This book is written and published by Molly of It's a Vegan Dog's Life, but professionally printed.

Book details: 110 pages, perfect bound, 8.5” x 11”.

2 SOLD!! Peace For All Necklace

2010-06-26T07:53:00.009-06:00

Wonderful Contribution from Ladies Blend
The words peace for all with a tiny bunny stamped at the bottom of a sterling silver heart disc.

With stamping on sterling silver, each letter is hammered by hand. Letters/words are not expected to look perfect, the flow has an organic feel, which is part of the beauty and handmade charm. No two look alike.

The charm has a shiny, polished appearance, this very often does not come through in a picture. The size is 20.5mm long, 20mm wide (compare the widest part to the size of a nickel), this is a thin disc stamping charm.

Strung on a sterling silver chain, please indicate chain length 16 or 18 inch.

Press Release for SOS Thrift

2010-06-11T20:07:00.002-06:00

S.O.S Definition..

1.The letters represented by the Morse Code signal · · · - - - · · ·, used as an international distress signal, especially by ships and aircraft. 2. A call or signal for help. 3. Now a call or signal to shop SOS thrift, an online marketplace to help Sea Shepherd Conservation Society clean up the Gulf Oil Spill and efforts to save animals and habitats affected by the oil crisis.

The ocean is crying out for help. I think the distress call is loud and clear. Every year it gets worse, we treat the oceans, the planet worse and worse. While this might be the understatement of the century, we can do something to help. Luckily, someone has heard that call and is doing something positive about it. In her spare time from raising two lovely little girls, Pippi has opened up a weekend thrift store online. Items are being listed (as they come in or as time allows ) and will continue to do so. You can donate or you can shop! Wonderful quality items are there for your perusal,from the handmade world and also some gently used items as well. You get two kinds of shopping in one convenient, online place.

Please head on over to check it out: www.SOSthrift.blogspot.com

All monies collected, sans shipping is being donated to Sea Shepherd's Gulf Rescue Campaign. See their site here: http://www.seashepherd.org/news-and-media/news-100517-1.html Sea Shepherd is working with the US Gov and others in the campaign to stop and rescue the Gulf area from the BP Oil Spill. They will be securing a third boat and training volunteers in Hazmat work. Cleaning animals they find and rescuing them from the oil spill effects. We are all hopeful they will save many, many lives and do great work. We are all here to lend them our support and stand behind them in pride.

Pippi's enthusiasm has already spread to several of her friends to help donate their time and expertise to getting the message out, and donating and also helping to facilitate the shop as well. One person sure can make a difference, it only takes some action.

Sincerly, Heather Henry
