Hi All! I wanted do something big a little different. I have recently experienced th trials and tribulations of cancer treatments for my mother in law. Through this time I have seen a ton of support fromm people far wide. To give back a little I wanted to donate some bracelets. There were some that were made and given to the patients at the cancer center. I thought we could’ve come together and make the bracelets to donate. I have an excess amount of beads and things that we can use and if you would like to donate that would be great as well. I got a some cancer ribbon and hope charms to add a special touch. Come join in making bracelets for cancer!
