Help Me Fight for Good Causes

Friday, October 23, 2009

   I've started a new project for special causes I want to support. I might make bottle cap earrings with Lemons on them to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation and ones with a Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon to support the Susan G Komen Foundations. These earrings would be only one bottle cap long, come in silver or gold attachments, various painted backgrounds, and would be $10 a pair. I will also be making big and small hand-woven Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbons for $4 and $8, respectively, with 50% of proceeds going to Susan G. Komen. The ribbons will come in a few different color pinks and take me from 2-6 hours to make, but they are worth the time.
   I lost my grandmother to lung cancer in 2006. It may not have been breast cancer, but cancer is worth fighting, no matter what form. I'm finally able to do something that could help give to the people fighting it, so I need your help.
   You can also donate directly to these causes if you look at the columns on the side of my page. I have not started the earrings yet, since I still need a few supplies, but they will be coming soon with pictures to show. I am currently working on my second Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon. A picture of my first one will be up on the site tonight. I hope that you guys will help me help people with cancer, people who have survived it, people who have lost someone to it, and people fighting it. To learn more about either of these foundations, please go to the links I have below.

Thank you.

The Fandom Gives Back: http://www.thefandomgivesback.com

  P.s. If you noticed, the Alex's Lemonade Stand icon says the Twilight fandom gives back. I write Twilight fanfiction. I may not have many original works (besides poetry), but I found that it is a beautiful story to use for a writing base point and that the people in the fandom are all caring and wonderful people. While I might not have a Twilight related site to post from, I still want to do my part to help them raise money. I am still a part of the fandom and feel that what these ladies are doing is amazing. Please help me, help them. Thank you.

New Products Coming Soon!

Monday, October 19, 2009

So I took some pictures for a new product coming out. It's a Hand-woven headband made from yarn. I have a limited amount of colors right now, but I'm saving up to get some more and at least the ones I currently have are pretty cute. After some editing and labeling, some headbands should be making it to the site this week. Hope somebody likes them! Keep watching the site and the blog and be sure to check out the products that are already up!

Great Big Hello

Wednesday, October 14, 2009

So now that I've switched sites, I've decided to start up a new blog to keep everyone up to date on what I'm doing, what's going on with the store, and product information. Hope that this can help me to gather new customers and hopefully answer any questions that should arise. I should be posting up headbands and some other new products some time within the next few weeks. Thanks to anyone that happens to stop by and make sure to check out my store!
