We are very excited and proud of our gift box donation to a local auction. This auction was a fundraiser for breast cancer. A cause that is very near and dear to our hearts. We put alot of thought into what we wanted to present and decided our gift should be about pampering yourself and a sprinkling of glam. Naturally, the color scheme came easy---pink, of course!
Off we went to purchase an assortment of handmade jewelry, painted champagne flutes, an antique pink depression glass platter, and a pair of handknit fingerless gloves. That is the glam.
The pampering comes in the form of three gift certificates, a bag of dark chocolate pomegranate and four of our designer butter cookies. The gift certificates are $40 for a salon and spa, $25 for an upscale restaurant and $20 at the wine store. Our designer cookies are baked by Mary of kokopelli a la carte and they melt in your mouth. They were decorated by Sylvie of Albina Rose with pink glaze and wite piped on icing. The cutouts are in the shape of the breast cancer pink ribbon.
All of these items were placed in a beautiful gift box with a pink feather boa whose feathers are bursting out all over in an explosion of pink luxury. The total retail value is $275 and we're hoping they will raise every penny of it, and more, for this worthy cause.
Celebrate your life!
