7000 Bracelets for Hope

7000 Bracelets of Hope Campaign is run through the Global Genes Project, which raises awareness and support for the more than 30 million people affected by rare diseases, disorders or conditions. 

The 7000 Bracelets for Hope Campaign is a way for various artists, jewelry designers and members of the craft community to show their support to the families who have children suffering from a rare disease, disorder or condition. 

 How does it work?

You design a 'Blue' bracelet, (one with blue beads, blue ribbons, etc.) preferably one that is adjustable or could fit a wrist anywhere from size 6.5 to 8.5, and send it to the people at the 7000 Bracelets of Hope Campaign along with a note of encouragement to the family.  The bracelets are distributed to those taking care of the children as a way to show support and uplift their spirits.

Cool, huh?

There is actually a 7000 Bracelets for Hope Blog Hop 

that is being hosted by

Pretty Things!

I've got another wonderful client to feature today - Patricia Barden from Etsy! 

I'm grateful that Pat has used some of my earring wires in her fabulous designs and wanted to share them with you.

These stones pop with natural colors and would make great gifts for the upcoming winter holidays!

Think of chilly winter weather and then put these on and they instantly warm up your day!!  With their great organic look, they can be paired easily with either jeans and sweater or a nice dress, tights and your new favorite boots!!

Treasures Galore!

Wow - I've been listed in another Treasury on Etsy!  Thanks so much to Twisted Feather!

You should really check out these shops - they have some awesome items that would be perfect for gift giving this holiday season - especially for your family and friends who already have absolutely everything and you never have any idea what to get them - these items will be a hit!

And, as you're gearing up for the holidays and since Thanksgiving is just around the corner, remember that  tomorrow is Veteran's Day.

Please be sure to thank all those who have served or are serving our country, providing the opportunity for us all to live the lives we live today!!

And, please remember all the men and women (and their families) who have given the ultimate sacrifice with their lives for our freedom,.....words cannot express my gratitude!
