The other day I came across some old religious medals that belonged to my great grandmother Alma. To honor her and and her brave battle but ultimate loss to breast cancer I created this necklace. Now every time I wear it I will have a little part of her with me and will remember her and all the women who have battled or are fighting breast cancer.

I love the necklace Cheryl and Gramma was the best and I hope that you can pass this on to Callie someday. You are so creative I wish I could take credit for your talent but I can't. Love ya Mom
I am sorry to hear of the loss of your great grandmother.
The necklace is a beautiful way to remember her.
I remember one of my grandmothers by seashells,especially abalone shells. She used to hang them on her cobblestone fence. I still search for my other grandmother by trying to find her cooking. She didn't leave any recipies behind and not one of her seven daughter's can copy the flavors.
I am glad that you had the good fortune to find your great grandmother's religious medals. I am sure she loved them and would be so pleased to have you show your love for her by turning them into such a beautiful artwork.
Cheryl,
What a great tribute to your grandma and the necklace is beautiful. I haven't been on much the last few days so I am playing "catch up" :) YOur pieces are amazing from the spring fling love seeing them all together.:) Hope you had a Happy Memorial Day. Hugs, Amy
