New Jasper! New Memory Wire Chokers!

Summer is on it's way, and think how nice this will look with all those summer dresses that you will be wearing to BBQ's and parties! Pat's Design Studio has 18"  Memory Wire Chokers!!  The nice thing about the memory wire chokers is that they are interchangable with any pendants, that you already have, or may purchase. Please browse the Gallery for many more pieces.

Until next time...

This is my Fundraiser for my Great Nephew Will Lynch.

Thank you to everyone who bought the Key Rings, in Support for Will Lynch and Autism Speaks, the Key Rings are sold out!
I was so impressed with the response from everyone on the Key Rings, this leaves me thinking what I can do to top it next year.

Thanks again...

This is my Fundraiser for my Great Nephew Will Lynch.

My Nephew Bill tells us about his son Will:  As most of you know Will was diagnosed with Autism at 21 months and since then has had many challenges and has undergone many therapies. Will has made great progress and we are blessed he is in our life. Although without the strides made in the Autistic community many kids quality of life wouldn't be what it is today. Autism Speaks had been the leading organization for our community and has made great progress in fund raising, research and legislative lobbying. Please help support our efforts to raise the funding needed to research and find a cure. Thank you the Lynch's              

This is my Donation for Autism Speaks for Will Lynch.  I am making these Key Rings and selling them for $3.00.  100% of the proceeds go to Autism Speaks.  The Key Rings are Swarovski Crystal, in the Autism colors and have a sterling silver "A" at the bottom that stands for Autism. You can also remove the ring and use these as purse charms, zipper pulls, or phone charms.  Please email me patwilking@yahoo.com if you are interested in showing your support.

Thank you for your involvement!
