Over the last few months, I have had the pleasure of working on an exciting, top secret project. Remember these?
Children in the Beads of Courage Program were asked to create drawings
which
represent a specific word. After the drawings were finished, the fabulous designs were
paired with glass artists. The artist created beads based on the original drawing. Size, color, detail, and quality were of utmost importance to convey the design artist's idea. Truly a project born of fire, glass, and love. I am honored to be one of the artists chosen to bring a special bead to life, specifically the "Peace" design.
Talented jewelry designers were commissioned by Soft Flex Company to create one of a kind designs featuring the glass beads. The special jewelry collaboration will be on exhibit at the 2014 Bead and Button Show in Milwaukee. Sara Oehler, talented designer/writer and Soft Flex Sales/Marketing Manager, originally announce the partnership on the "Soft Flex Girl" blog back in April:
All of the limited edition bead designs will be unveiled on June 5th in Milwaukee. For those of you attending the Bead & Button
Show, stop by the Beads of Courage and Soft Flex Company booths. Beads of Courage will have a booth located in the lobby to view the finished designs, fall in love, and purchase one! The sale proceeds will benefit Beads of Courage. Beads of Courage will have all the focal beads of the Bead Design Challenge for sale at their booth as well. These are VERY limited edition, so don't wait! A few will be available at www.beadsofcourage.org/beaddesignchallenge starting Friday. Donation receipts will be available.
The Beads of Courage Mission Statement: We are growing every day, providing innovative, arts-in-medicine supportive care programs for children coping with serious illness, their families and the health care providers who care for them.
