My dear crafty friend, Cody, of Lu & Ed gets faced with requests that she herself cannot make. It is a hard thing to tell one of you awesome fans I can not make what you are seek after. I will continue to do my best to refer you to whom I know to fill your needs. But Cody...well she came up with a most genius idea and it helps out a GREAT local cause. Welcome Cody.
Thank you Kelly. And as you said, I love it when customers ask for new products, but sometimes I can't always fill those requests.
Enter
Team Lu & Ed.
I keep a list of customer suggestions. One day I was looking at that
list and decided I need to do something about it - so I started reaching
out to other artists who I admire for their talent and positive
personalities to collaborate with to fulfill those suggestions!
Collaborating is such a wonderful experience. I love working with other
artists to make unique, limited edition products and I hope that you
enjoy seeing what we scheme up together! Together, me and the artists I
am teaming up with are changing the world - proceeds from each Team Lu
& Ed product are donated to charity!
Team Lu & Ed proudly supports
Drumm Farm Center for Children,
with as much as 100% from Team Lu & Ed products going directly to
the group
home environment for children in the Missouri foster care system in
Kansas City, where I call home. ♥ The other percentage of funds from
items goes directly back to the artist I collaborated with. I don't keep
a penny of the money from Team Lu & Ed, I invest it all back into
the local community and helping make the lives of children in the foster
care system more happy and wonderful!
Here is a run down on currently active collaborations & products you can find in my shop!
Cari from
TheMollieShop.com
makes incredible fur haired fabric dolls & perfectly pleasant
handmade fabric fabric hair bows! I was thrilled when she designed two
types of bows - a
ribbon/bottlecap bow and
a fabric bow
- to represent Team Lu & Ed! Cari graciously donates 100% of the
proceeds from these bows to charity through Team Lu & Ed!
This winter Cari & I launched ten fabric, fur hair Mollie Dollies
made in Team Lu & Ed colors - with 50% going to Team Lu & Ed!
The dolls flew off the shelves and there are just a few left!
Danielle of
Squshies makes colorful mini felt characters that can be
used as ornaments or soft wall art for kids, and I was stoked when she
