These little hearts are very special to me. Breast cancer touches many lives and for me personally, it has deeply affected life with people very close to me having to go through horrific treatments. Almost 2 years ago I started making these little messages of love, to help raise money for the National Breast Cancer Foundation, and since then we have sold well over 600 hearts to raise over $2,150!
Each heart is lovingly made by hand by me and impressed with a vintage lace doily whilst wet, leaving the lovely patterns behind. Short yet meaningful messages are imprinted on the reverse of the heart, creating treasured keepsakes to be given to loved ones to let them know they are in your thoughts.
50% of each heart sold will be donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, to help raise money towards research into the prevention, detection and treatment of breast cancer.
One very last batch of little hearts has come back from the kiln, these are now on sale in the Udessi online gallery. We will be closing the gallery at the end of March, so please help out by sending your loved ones a little piece of handmade love. Now reduced to only $8.50ea ~ click here to view them all.
You can view our running total of funds raised on the Udessi NBCF fundraising page here.
