Update 26/11/2014 - Pixie has decided to stop producing Happy Bags so she can move away from cancer and start focussing on living :) She has raised an INCREDIBLE £18,500 for Cancer Research with her hard work. Pixie - you're amazing xx
Today the postman brought more goodies :) This time in the shape of some Happy Bags which I am going to give out to a few people - I need to order some more though!
Happy Bags are the brainchild of a lady from the Breast Cancer Care forum who goes by the name of pesteringpixie. Pixie was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in January of this year, underwent surgery and has just completed chemotherapy (YAY Pixie!)
Making the Happy Bags is her fantastic way of raising money for Cancer Research as 100% of all monies goes directly to the charity.
The little organza bags (mine were purple, magenta and baby pink) are very sweet and each bag contains the following:
A Marble - for when you lose all of yours
A Piece of String - for when you can no longer hold it together
An Eraser - so you can rub out your mistakes and start your day over
A Teddy Bear - so you can always have a hug
A Coin - so you will never be broke
A Heart - so you always know someone loves you
A 4 Leaf Clover - to wish you all the luck in the world.
As of 3rd August Pixie has raised over £2,300 for Cancer Research and as today is the 10th August I'm sure she has in fact raised loads more than this :)
Congratulations Pixie!
