Pink Ribbon Parade 2007: Dainty Paddle Pendants

Invest in the cause with a Paddle Pendant from jeweller Julia Turner. Interesting object for a piece of jewellery, huh? Well here is the remarkable story. The Paddle Project was started by artist Julia Turner who wanted to show her support for a friend who had been diagnosed with cancer. The silver canoe paddles she created are meant to be worn by friends and families of those battling cancer. They serve as a wonderful reminder to stick together for the survival of loved ones.



The sterling silver one-and-a-quarter-inch paddle pendant sells for $25. $2.50 from the sale of each paddle is donated to the Breast Cancer Fund till January 2008. The paddle pendants come in s little box with a pink ribbon.
