It's Here!!!

7000 Bracelets for Hope Blog Hop


A few posts back I mentioned I was taking part in the above campaign....participants are asked to create one bracelet {in an adult size} in a denim/blue jeans-inspired theme.  The campaign is organised by The Global Genes Project, an advocacy group who launched "7000 Bracelets for Hope", for children with rare diseases. The bracelets are given to one of 7000 families who have children with rare diseases to show them love and support.

Today is reveal day, here's my creation....



The brief was to create a bracelet for an adult with a denim theme to it.  As we know not everyone has the same wrist size so I cheated slightly, what better way to make sure you have a perfect fit for any size wrist than to use elastic as a stringing material!  The design is made up of super sparkly crystal rounds, lapis lazuli and silver toned twisted beads....this piece catches the light beautifully....and am ashamed to say I nearly decided to keep it for myself! ;oO

There's an amazing 112 participants in this blog hop....and you can visit each and everyone just by clicking on the links to their blogs below, I am sure with all the gorgeous-ness created by these fabulous artists you will be drooling by the end of the hop! 

Thanks again Lori for another inspiring blog hop request!

Enjoy!

7000 Bracelets for Hope...


You might remember a few weeks back that I took part in a Bead Soup blog hop created by Lori Anderson....well, she has started another blog hop, only this one is for children with rare diseases, such a good cause I couldn't help but take part. I emailed Lori straight back and signed up to participate in the “7000 Bracelets of Hope” blog hop.   All I need to do to participate is create ONE bracelet,  in an adult size, in a denim/blue jeans-inspired theme.

The bracelets will be sent to The Global Genes Project, an advocacy group who launched "7000 Bracelets for Hope", a children's rare disease campaign. The bracelets are given to one of 7000 families who have children with rare diseases to show them love and support.   

The reveal date is the 16th April 2011.

There's an amazing 110 participants in this blog hop....I will list them all, along with my creation, on the reveal day. 

MAKE SURE YOU POP BACK!!!
