and we invite you to join us in our fight!!

The Longest Day is the day of the year with the most light - the Summer solstice.  

And it's the day I have committed to help in the fight for a cure for Alzheimers and Dementia related diseases...actually...we are going to fight for the entire month of June!

Here at the shoppe we are participating in The Longest Day, a fundraising event to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association.  

I watched as dementia took my mom to Heaven. It took 9 years. For my dad, my brother and I it was seemingly forever and yet, stunningly brief.  It is a slow, silent, devastating killer.  

We need to stop it.

​

We've learned more about the brain and neurological system in the most recent 20 years, than in all the thousands of years prior...we need to find a way to stop this. 

Today, it is estimated that more than 50 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer's or other dementia including more than 5 million Americans. 

In the US alone, more than 16 million family and friends are providing care to someone they love.  

We must find solutions now.

​

Now I realize this is a 'pretty serious' beginning to my monthly intro...and if I made you uncomfortable or even if you stopped reading and scrolled by, it is important to share this with everyone I can.  I would not wish this disease on any family.  That is why we fight.  So every dollar we make in June goes to our Longest Day team's fundraising efforts. 

In June, everything we do we will do looking through purple tinted glasses...

With everyone's help...we can find answers.

​

As you scroll you will find some fun and festive offerings for June...we are excited to get a few new things to join with some of our favorites...be sure to sign up soon...these will likely sell out quickly!  And don't forget that you can always 'drop-in' to craft or simply meet your friends to hang out with us!!
