Silk Lovelies

It's a rainy, gray day here. A good day to be indoors creating.

I'm inspired today to create more eye pillows. These silk scarves, all thrifted, are going to become my next eye pillows. They all seem to have a Valentine or spring theme. I love the little hearts on the scarf on the left. At last count, the Craft Hope site has sold over 1000 items, and raised over $20,000 for Haiti. I feel humbled to be a part of such an awesome group of crafters.

A Way To Help

This morning, I learned of another way to provide assistance to those helping in Haiti, thanks to Heather. Those of us who make handmade items can donate them to Craft Hope for Haiti, and the proceeds all go to Doctors Without Borders. How wonderful is that! I've donated some of my eye pillows. Please check out the site if you'd like a lovely handmade item, and do some good to boot. As a quote on the site says, "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world."--Anne Frank.
