Scary!!

We celebrate Halloween this month with all of it's fun and frivolity. October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  That is something that is truly scary!  The Pink Ribbon is a symbol of "hope" for a "cure" of breast cancer.  

Accoutrement Designs Breast Cancer Awareness Magnets and Fobs available.

The Hope Fob sterling silver ending bead has "Hope" inscribed on both sides.  The Survivor Fob has "Survivor" written on one side and a "ribbon" engraved on the other.  All are available from your LNS.

The Hope and Cure canvas is a proud display of the talents we have in our local ANG - Royal Palm Chapter.  We are very proud of Becky Powell, our past VP, Community Projects Chair who designed this piece. ANG National even accepted it for their current Chapter Project Book.  It can be adapted to any cancer by simply changing the colors.  Our chapter members stitch this piece in a round robin.  Then we donate it to a local Breast Cancer facility as one of our many community service projects. This is the 2nd such project and will be dedicated later this month.

The box is from Julia.
