As mentioned in my previous blogpost about my Amy Butler blossom handbag, I was going to donate the bag for a local silent auction here in Rochester, NY. The auction is part of a really exciting event on April 20, 2013 called "classical idol": a vocal competition with jury and audience participation who search for new talents in the classical music genre. The first prize is $ 2,000 and the opportunity to perform a solo in concert with the Rochester Oratorio Society. That is the choir I am currently a member of, hence my contribution to the silent auction :)
So I had the handbag, but I felt like I would want to make it like a nice esemble of things, for people to be more likely to donate for it. I decided I would make another one of my iPhone cases (for iPhone 5) but I changed it a little bit from the one I made for myself and added a small velcro closure to it. The salmon color matches nicely with the shades of the handbag.

Finally I made a bifold wallet in bright red colors. It has a lot of slots for credits cards and a zip pocket on the backside.

There will not only be a silent auction at this event but also hors d'oeuvres, cash bar and - most important of all - beautiful singing! The festivities start at 6 PM, the Idol competition at 7:30 PM. Tickets for the event are $40, and there also will be student "Theater Seating" available for $15.
