2013 - 26 Acts of Random kindness

I'm sure many of you are fully aware of the tragic events that unfolded at Sandy Hook earlier this month. If you are like me, these children will never be far from your mind. You hug your own children close and are thankful that they come home to you each school day.

One of the good things that came out of this was from Ann Curry who invited everyone to commit 26 random act of kindness in memory of the victims who were lost that day.

Come 2013 - I will be doing just this. I strongly urge you to check out this facebook page and discover this movement for yourself. I am already planning my first act! ;)

Day #12 Give away

Today is the last day of giveaways! Thank you to everyone who has been participating and congrats to all of our winners! 12 Xmas character clips are up for grabs today! To win, simply comment under this post!

Giveaway day #11

And here we are at day #11! This one is a mom and me give away with two headbands featuring the same interchangeable flowers, as well as an adult and preschooler sized kufi hat with matching flower, two 3 inch headbands with one flower! You'll both look super cute! To win, simply comment under this post. Ends at 12pm EST tomorrow.

On a more serious note - i'm asking for your help. If your crafty, have a product or just want to help! Please email me at shelbystyleshairclips@yahoo.ca to participate in the auction starting this Friday!

I always do my best to try and help out through Shelby Styles supporting various fund raisers, charities etc etc. Not often do I post asking for help when it's personal and close to home. Today, I'm asking just that!!! Small business owners...

, Vendors, anyone wanting to get your name out etc etc. I NEED your help! Last month my husband's 31 year old cousin passed away from cancer. She was born with Blooms which is a rare disorder and has been fighting her WHOLE life. She was receiving assistance from the government and because of that lived on very little money. Our family has gone to assistance asking for their help in covering final costs, only to have been rejected. My husband's aunt has been home looking after his cousin and has been unable to work, she's also been caring for her son who has severe epilepsy. I'm outraged that they have gone through so much already and now are dealing with this burden! I would love to run a auction for them this weekend on my page to help with exspenses. Vendors - please let me know if you would be willing to participate. I need to pull this together quickly. Here is the link to the petition that was denied, it holds more info.

Vendors - in exchange for your participating and agreeing to donate your funds, I will promote each one of you individually on my blog by running a feature.

RIP Trace.....
