I was the
proud winner of both the "Best Floral" and "BEST IN SHOW" Ribbons
in the Bottles of Hope Challenge at the Southern Connecticut
Polymer Clay Guild's biannual Clay ConneCTion Retreat this year.
The
Bottles of Hope project was started in 1999 by a very special
person, Diane Gregoire, a cancer survivor and polymer clay artist.
Diane found a way to use her special talents as an artist to cheer
up the lives of cancer patients going through the ordeal of
chemotherapy. She used clay to decoratively cover small glass
medicine bottles and gave them to other patients as a symbol of
hope. The program is now thriving worldwide. Please
