All jewellery items are handmade, never been worn, hands are cleaned before making each one.
Pink- In memory of the family members I have lost to Cancer and to help get others to screen themselves to have a fighting chance if found early enough it makes that difference between life and death.
Butterflies- T18p Canada in memory of Samatha Martin and raise money and awareness of t18p.

Cranberry (was the Canadian colour) also purple - Alzheimers, For my Grandmother. Also purple is mental health and seizures touched by this as my husband has a cyst in the brain and has seizures.
Progeria- blue and white a young friend who was so wise had a rare form she looked like a healthy kid but inside her organs where old.
Wood beads bracelet’s -Raising our community kindness. Help send kids to camp. I didn’t get to go to camp as a kid and always felt I had missed out.
Birds Nest Pendants - I think of birds and think Healthy housing, I was homeless 5 times and I see not enough affordable housing and yes I have a roof but it’s a 2 bedroom that doesn’t completely work for my family.
As you can see Artist Alley isn’t just jewellery it’s me trying to make a living and a difference, the aprons raise money for my daughters cooking share program and her loom headbrands are her fundraising for wanting to help save animals, some photos are of can lid magnets she has made.
We hope that you like wearing a statement knowing that the jewellery you wear has helped an important cause and made a difference in someone elses life. Thank you for learning about Artist Alley.
