BEADS WANTED TO HELP ANIMALS
Last February the Beading Divas gave Ferret Friends about $900 from sale of there bracelets! Let's help them out by supplying them with more beads. Even old costume jewelry that can taken apart will be of value.
Ladies & Gentlemen: DRUM ROLL PLEASE!
Beading Divas to the Rescue is a group of creative industrious women that make one-of-a-kind bracelets from beads donated by the community. All the proceeds are given to local animal rescue groups and a different group is designated each month to receive funding from the sale of the bracelets. Since December 2008, we have donated $23,000 to 16 different animal rescue groups including greyhounds, all other breeds of dogs, cats, ferrets, and horses. In these tough economic times, it is crucial to help the rescue groups meet their objective of rescuing and finding homes for these critters.
Some of you may already be a proud owner of a Beading Diva bracelet, so you know how gorgeous they are and nobody else has one like it because there are not repeats! Beading Diva bracelets cost only $20 and make fabulous thoughtful gifts for your family and friends.
HOWEVER, we can only continue making and selling bracelets and giving the money to animal rescue groups if we have BEADS, BEADS, and more BEADS! So if you have beads hidden in your closet, or beads that you no longer wear, please consider donating them to the Beading Divas. Rest assured, we will make good use of them and the animal rescue groups will be very grateful for your help.
See the link below to learn about the bead contest that runs through the end of December, and locations where you can drop off your beads. OR, please email me and let me know where I can pick up your beads.
