Hi
I am making Happy Bags to raise money for Breast Cancer research.
They are little purple organza bags tied with ribbon.
Inside they contain:
A Marble - for the days when you loose all of yours
A Piece of String - for when you can no longer hold it together
A Coin - so you will never be broke
A Teddy Bear - so you can always get a hug
A Heart - so you always know somebody loves you
An Eraser - to rub out those little mistakes and start your day over
A Silver 4 leaf clover - to wish you all the luck in the world
They have a pretty label tied to the ribbon explaining the contents.
They make lovely gifts and i am selling them at £2 each. 100% of the money goes to cancer research (the components of the bags is my contribution)
If you would like one/some. please message me and I can direct you to my Just Giving page and you can supply me with your postal details.
Much love

Thank you so much Pauline. I have my 82 year old mother and her twin sister set up as an assembly plant. They have made 500 thus far as I am going to be selling them at our local Race and Relay for Life events.

You may try to make a online shop, that way you can make more sale.

Hi Pixie,

Got my bags and distributed them at the WGC Race4Life today.

Personally, my diagnosis is the least of my troubles - but my family are suffering big time. By giving them a bag each, I felt I had given them a focus and means to protect themselves when I can’t be there for them.

I was not able to do the R4L today - however contributing to raising the finger against Cancer gave me some satisfaction!

Thanks Pixie, Pixies Mum, Aunty, and OH !

Hi Pixie

Just wanted to say that I got my bags today and they are lovely! Thankyou so much for being so thoughtful, as an added bonus, they are purple bags and anyone who knows me will tell you I am the queen of purple (its my royal connections!).

My close friend is having heart surgery next week, so one of the bags has her name on.

Good luck with the fund raising

Hi Joan

I am so happy you like them. They come in the ‘cancer colours’ of pink and purple so it was providence you got purple ones:)

Much love
