Beading Cancer

Pink ribbons take on a new look this October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month as one jewelry designer strings up pink ribbon jewelry to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer.



Self-proclaimed 's8220;jewelry junkie,'s8221; Amy Storer, who is founder and designer of Breast Friend Beadery, is putting her love for designing jewelry to work, selling handmade, breast cancer awareness jewelry on http://www.BreastFriendBeadery.com and donating all proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.



's8220;Breast cancer touches all of us at some point, when you, a friend or family member is faced with it,'s8221; says Storer. 's8220;Unfortunately, this disease affects us all. Fortunately, you can help put an end to the ugly disease with something beautiful that will advance promising breast cancer research and awareness efforts.'s8221;



According to the National Cancer Institute, breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in women in the United States. In fact, one in every seven women is likely to get breast cancer and every two minutes, a woman dies of breast cancer in the United States.



And even though breast cancer is 100 times more common in women than in men, the American Cancer Society estimates 1690 new cases of male breast cancer were diagnosed in 2005.



Awareness jewelry 's8211; or jewelry that carries a socially conscious, humanitarian message about breast cancer awareness and the search for a cure 's8211; is the sole focus of Breast Friend Beadery. Breast cancer-themed necklaces and bracelets, which incorporate aesthetics such as a pink ribbon charm, a bead engraved with a ribbon, a bead engraved with the word 's8220;survivor's8221; or simply beads strung on a pink ribbon, are available on http://www.BreastFriendBeadery.com.



Have something specific in mind Breast Friend Beadery will also accommodate personalized and made-to-order requests. The jewelry can be designed especially for women, men, infants, toddlers, teens, mothers, fathers, grandmothers and grandfathers, from a variety of beads, charms, pendants and ribbon. E-mail with specific requests.



's8220;This is a cause for which I feel quite deeply,'s8221; comments Storer. 's8220;Through my jewelry, I want to tell the person buying it for themselves, receiving it as a gift or the person on the street admiring it on someone else, that breast cancer can never destroy courage, determination or beauty.'s8221;
