Hope Floats

Beginnings are scary. Endings are usually sad, but it's what's in the middle that counts. So, when you find yourself at the beginning, just give hope a chance to float up. And it will.


--Birdee Pruitt (Sandra Bullock) from the movie "Hope Floats"

Hope Floats




















A friend from my childhood years has recently experienced a medical crisis.  At the age of 41, Rachel had a stroke.  Her family and friends are planning a rally in July to raise funds to assist her in this difficult time.  You can find this bracelet at the rally in a silent auction. 

Earlier this year, Rachel's friend Kay bought an Artful Accents bracelet to give to Rachel for her birthday.  I knew that I wanted to make a piece for the auction that would be similar to Rachel's bracelet. 

I'm wondering if Rachel feels like she's at the beginning of something scary...here's to encouraging her to give hope a chance to float!

  3. Kathy, The bracelete is just beautiful. It will be cherished by the one who bids to win. I am going to browse your etsy shop ahead of time to purchase when I'm in your neck of the woods!
