Handmade clothing allows you to show your true self to the world. It's like a socially acceptable form of being naked.

I paid her $66 and she never sent me the items I bought. Apparently she was losing her house and I unknowingly was scammed. Her friend wrote this blog about her: Do not trust her!!! I Get By with a Little Help from My FRIENDS Current mood: determined For some reason, I have been hung up on writing this. Feeling the need to help, I've wanted poety to flow from my fingers, but i've just tangled myself into inaction. I've now come to the realization that my desire to help my family comes from my heart and it is through my heart that I write this. Help!!! Very dear friends of mine--my sister Christine and brother Jonathan--are in great need for help. They have fallen behind on their property tax. And even though they own the house outright, their county is in the process of seizing the entire value of their home in order to pay a $1,000 tax. This is all made more urgent and scary by the fact that they have three children and a new one on the way. Christine has been running a clothing buisness from home while raising the children. Jonathan has been in and out of work due to a variety of reasons (including the fact that their youngest had to have surgury and stay in the hospital for over a week.) They are not the kind of people to hold their hand out and say, "Give Me." But they are now in a time of need. This is where we come in. I am asking you all from the bottom of my heart to help my family in any way that you can. We constantly hear slogans like--"Save the World," and "Think Globally Act Locally." I cannot think of a better way to act locally that to help a family of 5 1/2 keep a roof over their head. Please send any amount of money you can spare--even if it seems small it will help--your love and prayers, a card, and or anything else you can think of to help. I don't ask for things like this often, but when it is important, who else can you lean on other than your friends and family. Here is their address: The Martins 207 Turtle Neck Road Fairview, TN 37062 Much love and Blessings to all my relations. Blessed be--mary-gardner 7:16 PM - 2 Comments Chella Bella HELP? Yea, I guess I unknowingly got scammed into helping them. She was supposed to be making clothes for me and I sent in a paypal amount of $66 ... did I receive the items I purchased? NO... have I received my refund that I requested? NO. Have I sent in numerous e-mails to her requesting UPDATE? YES! Did she respond back? NO! So what choice did I have but open up a paypal dispute against her. Did that get her attention? Finally with this e-mail...

So starting some shit with paypal and putting comments up on my space is stupid. Why did you not contact me directly before now. I have no fear of karma I have done nothing wrong. You don't deserve any of my work and I will refund your money... now go away...!!! fuck you...!!!!! ________________________________________________________________ I did contact you. I sent you e-mails you never responded. It left me no choice but to go through paypal and again you never responded.. You know it always seems that when someone doesn't follow thru the first thing they blame it on is "I was sick" c'mon how long does it take to simple hit reply and give me an update. Look what it took to get you to finally resond! Honestly if you were so sick you were still keeping up on your other page"Pieceful" And believe me the only thing I am interested in at this point is getting my money back. Which by the way you have yet to do! Also, I saw your negative feedback on ebay... you've burned people before. Honesty goes a lot farther in this world and if you want a peaceful world you have got to be true. Michelle Some peaceful and deserving friend you have there. Has she responded to that e-mail from 3 days ago? nuh uh...nothing, not a peep. I don't have $66 to burn. Times are hard for everybody. I myself am feeling the financial hardship. But out of respect to one stay at home mom to another doing whatever it takes to make handmade crafts and art , run a business so I can be a part of my childrens lives, never did I think she would burn me. But I guess desperation makes people do unjust things and that is unfortunate about your friend. ~Michelle Posted by Chella Bella on Sep 19, 2008 8:03 AM [Reply to this] Chella Bella Oh and the date of my payment to her on paypal was August 27th the same day you wrote this blog ... imagine that. Ironic isn't it. Posted by Chella Bella on Sep 19, 2008 8:13 AM [Reply to this]
