Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
http://www.cff.org

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common, fatal inherited disease affecting children and young adults. CF attacks primarily the lungs and the digestive system. In the lungs, the effects of the disease are most devastating; and with time, respiratory problems become increasingly severe. In the digestive tract, CF blocks the absorption of adequate vitamins and nutrients from food.

Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis wouldn’t even exist if it wasn’t for the foundation and all the donations they receive.

EFC Team donated $40.00 to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in July.

In July, EFC individual members donated
$10 to Kids Against Hunger

Please allow 1-3 days from time of payment for your Custom Bonbon Bear to be made. A picture of your bear will be emailed to you for approval before shipping. Your bear will arrive in a wrapper nestled in a little box.

♥Bonbon Bears are adorable hand-crocheted softies shaped like chocolate candies. They are approximately 2 inches (5 cm) tall and 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) wide; larger than traditional chocolate bonbons.

Summer Brights Beaded Necklace

Notes from the Artist:

The beads really spoke to me on this one! I purchased these gorgeous matte glass cylinder beads in a wide variety of colors; when the bright blue and lime green beads landed next to each other, I knew they would make a great combination. I had had the focal bead in my stash for a while, just waiting for the right pairing; this was it! I love how the texture and shine of the silver foil in it contrasts with the matte glass of the other beads. Gorgeous for summer (thus the name of Summer Brights Beaded Necklace), but a great pop of color year round.
