Etsy For Charity

Animal Place

http://www.animalplace.org

Animal Place, founded in 1989, is a nonprofit sanctuary for abused and discarded farmed animals. Rescued individuals and indigenous wildlife share 60 acres for forest, meadow, pasture, hills and small lake.

EFC Team donated $10.00 to this charity in September.

Notes from the artist :
I love this ornament because it is made with vintage fabric that I found in a tiny fabric shop in Smithville, Texas. The lady who runs the shop is exactly what you would expect. She was charming and full of stories of the area.
