Breast Cancer Awareness Made Personal-Jessica
Breast cancer is real, and it affects many. I have 3 beautiful children, one of which I was able to breast feed for the first 6 months of his life. I could not imagine a life without them, as little as I was gifted in that area. I am not afraid to shave my head, as I had to do while I was pregnant with my second child. Therefore, it did not take much thought to doing it for a good cause. My family and I were discussing how to properly show our breast cancer hats. We felt it would be best if we had someone, a female preferably, without any hair. I decided to do it. I am proud of my looks. I am not ashamed of how I look. Even if I were, that would be no excuse, looking at all of the women forced to lose their hair, whether they wanted it or not. I feel that those who have been affected can look at me and know they are not alone. My hope is that, although I am not affected, that they are not alone in this.

We love to bead-Corrie
Hey Guys,
So I thought it would be nice to touch base and show everyone some of the Jewelry we have made in the past. This is just our beaded work we have many other forms of Jewelry and accessories like gimp(boondoggle, rexlace,craftlace), Friendship thread, etc. Prices of course vary from piece to piece based on accessibility, type of bead, and of course the type of jewelry like bracelet, necklace, earrings, or set.

We Don't just Crochet!-Jessica
We mostly focus on crocheted items. I mostly focus on hats, especially at this time of year, because we are getting ready for our winter sale. One of the first items I made, though, had nothing to do with hats or crocheting. I did what most teenagers my age did when I was 13 or 14. I made friendship bracelets. My older sister taught me and I love making them. I did not know how to do all of the interesting patterns we have now, but it was fun for me. When we started putting them into the business, we had fun with them. My little sister started looking up patterns and we went wild. I really Like the friendship bracelets that are for Autism Awareness. I have a nephew and a cousin who are Autistic, so it is really important to me.

Details on our support!-Corrie
So when we posted our last blog we got a lot of questions. People wanted to know what cause we were supporting, how much money went to the actual cause, as well as where we send the donations. To answer these questions lets's start with the cause. This month and next month we are focusing on breast cancer many of our hats are being sold at $20-$35 and donations are $5-$15 depending on cost to make and ship the hat. We also have the key chain which we sell for $5 and the donations are $2 per chain sold. We send donations to Ribbon Riders but if the person buying specifies a different organization we will happily send their donation there. When we make sales we make a special card that optionally includes the name of the customer the name of the company, these are then sent to the company with the donations. Throughout the year we will be donating to other causes but people who wish to donate to this specific cause can request a donation oriented item.
We are in the Process of adding more awareness items but for now this is what we have available!

All About Support... Marquita
For the last week or so we have been trying to put some focus on our awareness line. I personally am a big breast cancer awareness supporter. There are so many different things that need help with donations and research that it is very difficult to just pick one so for now Breast Cancer is what I'll focus on. We have a few different items that is focused on Awareness for breast cancer.
