PARTICIPATORY SPORT FOR CRAFT ARTISTS
Silver Cats Save Cats
The OSPCA (Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) had plans to euthanize 350 animals, but only 99 have been put down due to 'combined voices of animal welfare advocates' (from the Toronto Humane Society Article), and many people are raising money, and there is even a facebook page for the issue. Also these articles from CBC News and the Star have further details on the event.
I have decided to help by donating $10 of every sale of my Cat Jewelery (Silver and Brass Cat Lover Necklaces and Earrings) to the local Humane Society or a animal shelter of your choice that has a 'no kill' policy. This will help ensure the continuing success of animal welfare institutions.
I hope this act is well received, and of course, kudos to all those loving pet owners who took action in a time of need.
Please visit my Etsy page www.RicksonJewellery.Etsy.com to help the cause.

Rickson!
What a great idea, I love cats and I think it’s good when we can use our creativity to do well.
I wish you good luck with this project.
I have to say that I like a lot of your jewellery pieces at the easy shop too.
Keep up the good work!!!
Best wishes, Paula.

The Justified Sinner posted a blog postWhat Have I Been Up To?
Since returning from Istanbul, it has been non-stop in the workshop, preparing work for orders and making some new pieces too. I've sidelined a number of works-in-progress in order to get on with more pressing issues, so there are no updates on my Chanel-inspired piece or my tribute to Alexander McQueen, though I have progressed apace with my first foray into electronics in jewellery, "14th Century Nightlife" which I hope to finish finally this coming week after it sitting on my bench for…See More
