Dear Friends,
You've been reading about it for months and I'm excited to say that today is the official start of my “THINK PINK” raffle! As you know, October is Breast Cancer awareness month, so all money donated will go to the Susan G. Komen Foundation for breast cancer research.
One lucky winner is going to get an amazing “THINK PINK” prize package!
The prize package will include:
Pink Pot of Hope basket woven by me
Matching pink set of Stampin' Up supplies from CJ at Tea n' Stitches
Pink Sentsy warmer and fragrance from Naomi at Sentsy
Handwoven scarf from Bety at Deep End of the Loom
Lia Sophia "Pink Flamingo" necklace from Faith
A Beautiful Pink Ribbon Bible, Handmade Pink Journal and Crochet Tote Bag from Julie at A Handwoven Life---------------------------------------------------------
A second lucky winner will receive this beautiful Lia Sophia necklace and earing set also from my friend Faith. I just received this beautiful jewelry for the raffle this morning so I want to take a moment to thank my dear personal friend and fellow basket weaving buddy. Combined the jewelry is over a $95 value. Thank you so much Faith. You are truly special to me.
Raffle entries are $1.00 per “ticket” and can be purchased through PayPal (see "Donate" button in the sidebar)
The drawing will take place October 15, 2010.
Please be generous. This is a cause very near and dear to my heart as I've lost a grandmother and an aunt to breast cancer and my mother and other women in my family are breast cancer survivors. This disease affects many of us.
I would also be very appreciative if you would let others know about my “THINK PINK” raffle. Please write a blog post about this charity event and link back here. How about letting your Facebook, Twitter, and other social networking friends know about this so they can share the news with their friends? The farther we can spread the word, the more money we can raise.
With all your help this can be a wonderful success.
Thank you and God bless.
Nancy
Update - I just received Julie's donation of a beautiful Pink Ribbon Bible, Handmade Pink Journal and Crochet Tote Bag. Julie made the journal and tote bag herself and her work is amazing. What a beautiful addition to our prize package. Thank you so much Julie!!! Julie blogs over at A Handwoven Life and has a basket weaving website Deen Homestead Basketry.

Thanks a lot for the videos. I have wanted to weave a basket for some time now, but didn't really know how to go about it. I appreciate the time you put into the videos, and everything else. I want to use local materials though, and I was wondering if you knew anything that grew wild, and how to process it. We have cattail or bulrush, which I hear is a decent material.. If you want, you can email me at CCourson05@aol.com
