    One of our local LQS's is trying to raise money for Breast Cancer Research. They're hoping to get 200 artful bras ($5 per entry) so that they can donate $1000. Since it's a national thing I was wondering if anyone else is doing it and what you'd come up with. I've gotten one done. I bought a DD bra and covered it with Cinnamon discs, Peppermint discs and other hard candies. You got it, it's name is Big Rock Candy Mountains. I'm thinking about making another with faces above the cups, t-shirts on the cups and jean clad legs and shoes---Walking ABreast, and one other one that's still in the planning stages called Purple Mountain Majesties.

    I volunteer for Casting for Recovery and we are doing a show we call "Foundations for Recovery." We are having 20+ local artists make and/or decorate bras to enter in this event. It was a huge success last year, and we're doing it again. It was so much fun. Check out his link to see the ones from last year's show.
