Bras for A Cause 2011 " Mountains of Courage in Bloom"

"Mountains of Courage
in Bloom"

This Bustier is dedicated to my dear friend
Helen Cheng
 Done in Acrylics then varnished
The form of this bustier was not quite as nice as
the first one I did, making it slightly more difficult to paint !
Today I am donating this completed bustier to "Bras for A Cause" along with one hundred dollars. The  money my daughter has saved us on sundries through extreme couponing the  past four months  affords  me the opportunity to contribute to a worthy cause in honour of my friend. 
   
Two years ago right about the time I was donating my first bustier " Mountains of Courage" in honor of a mutual friend, Helen was diagnosed! January 4th was Helens second birthday since her diagnoses and treatments! I'm excited to say she looks healthy with a full head of  curly hair! Seems like all those   home perms are finally permanent! I'm pretty sure she's crossing her fingers that they are anyway!

Helen is such a terrific person always full of glee with an ability to recall minute details and dates like no other! We met twenty years ago when our daughters were in kindergarten! We've had so many laughs over the years  and lots of great chatter! I am so proud of my pal, her courage and tenacity to fight through such tough times always with a smile and  winning sense of humor! Love you Helen, you're one of a kind! Happy Birthday!!! Wishing you many more my friend!

Bra for a Cause 2011

Bra for a Cause 2009 " Mountains of Courage"

Boy oh boy I am on a time crunch to find a bustier so I can get this years bra done by the Feb 1st deadline for the 2011 "Bras for a Cause" I found one like new last time. I was honoured yet very surprised when I clicked on the "Bra for a Cause" site this year to see my bra, out of many, used as the thumbnail photo for their 2011 campaign! I am on the hunt today, lets hope it doesn’t start snowing until after I get back! We had a dusting yesterday evening! I hope I don’t have to settle for a regular bra! Kind of have my heart set on a bustier again!
