NEW...Aqua Crystal Collection

Catchin' Up...

I am feeling very blessed...just wrote a check to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation for another $130!!! The total raised by my items on Etsy is now at $280 - yay!!!

NEW...

Starting today...On selected items in our Etsy shop...100% of the sales price will go to charities who dedicate their efforts, to children with brain tumors. (my mom will be helping purchase supplies to keep these listings going)

A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU - WHO HAVE HELPED SUPPORT THIS CAUSE!!!!!!!!

Three Checks & Counting...

Today, I am sending out the third check for $50 AND I have $10 towards my next goal. So far they are all going to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation - I'm still thinking about rotating charities...I'll keep you posted :-)

A Good Start To The Weekend...

We just sold another TWO bracelets early this morning!!!!!!!!!

I am sending a check out for $50 today & I almost have enough to send TWO!!!

I AM ONLY $5 SHORT OF MAKING ANOTHER DONATION :-)

Can't wait to send more...

Whoo Hoo...Yippeeee!!!!!!

THREE more bracelets just sold!!!

I now have enough funds to send out another check :-)

Time for a happy dance...

More Good News...

I have sold another bracelet...bringing me up to $25. I am half way to my next goal.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

On The Way...

I sent the first check out yesterday!!!!!! Now I am even more excited about my new designs - I hope to have them up in our shop later today :-)

I already have $15 towards my next goal. If you know anyone who would like to help, PLEASE spread the word.

I am also thinking about adding more organizations to my list. I had planned on donating to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Now I am thinking of adding another organization...the American Brain Tumor Association. They were very helpful, in providing information & guidance to my parents. I think the best way will be to rotate donations to those three organizations (still in $50 increments).

A HUGE THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS HELPED SO FAR!!!!!!!!

Hip Hip Hooray :-)

Today...We sold another bracelet on Etsy, in support of children with brain tumors!!! Why am I so excited??? I get to send my first check to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. (I decided to send them in $50 increments) I will be smiling as I write it out to them :-) I hope it will be the first of many!!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Wishful...

I have been very fortunate to sell 4 of my bracelets for charity (one set of earrings too). I'm happy :-)

My goal right now is to raise the first $50 - Then I will be sending a check to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. My mom is matching anything I raise - so I only need $5 more...Keeping my fingers crossed :-)

I plan to add more to my selection of PIF items for charity today...Please visit my shop to see what's new.

Whoopee :-)

I am very happy to say...We sold two of our fundraising bracelets today!!!!!!!

So...I will contribute $10 to children's brain tumor research & support AND my mom will match that = $20 for a very worthy cause.

That is surely something to be happy about :-)

Girl On A Mission...

I want to do something to make a difference...

After thinking about it for awhile, I have finally decided to take some action. (with the help of inspiring stories from fellow etsy artists and customers) TODAY....I listed my first items to support a cause which is very meaningful to me. I am offering items in our shop to help kids with brain tumors. I chose this, because my little brother was diagnosed with a brain tumor when he was ten years old. He has been through a lot over the years. I want to do anything I can to make it easier on other kids, their families, and to help in research for new treatments. I hope there are people out there who are interested in helping me support this cause. My mom has offered to match whatever amount I raise through the sales of these items - that is exciting!!!

I will be putting more PIF items up for sale soon - I hope to reach as many people as I can - So please spread the word :-)

From little seeds of kindness...Grow the most beautiful gardens of joy :-) KP

We've Only Just Begun...

Okay...So it has taken us awhile to get a blog started. There is a first time for everything I guess. Right now, we are focusing on adding new things to our shop on Etsy. Kim has been working on Pay It Forward listings for Etsy this past week - Hoping to spread a little joy. Joe is starting to work on a few drawings for an art gallery, where his work will be showcased this summer. He is also planning on working on smaller projects to offer on Etsy as well.
