IN THE PINK!

As you know I took the plunge and joined the 6th Bead Soup Blog Party this summer.  Lori Anderson is the super woman who put together this huge event with 400 participants.  She spent countless hours organizing and supporting jewelry artists from all over the world.  Today we are simply here to express our gratitude and show her how much we appreciate her!  So some of us decided to go pink.  Due to work rules I wasn't able to actually dye my hair pink but loved the hot pink clip ins :)

Warmest Aloha and Mahalo from the bottom of my heart dearest Lori Anderson!  I know you spent many sleepless nights organizing, putting out fires, hand writing post cards, sending numerous emails to all 400 participants, and keeping us all on track with blog posts and FB posts.  We can't thank you enough for the countless hours of hard and tedious work and please know how much joy you brought to so many around the world!  We've never met in person but I consider you to be a dear friend.  Big Hug!

Please visit all the other fabulous ladies who is In The Pink for Lori!
