Description

My gym was holding a bra decorating contest back in October as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with money going to breast cancer research. This was my bra entry, and it came second.

I bought a bag of mixed pink buttons and some ribbons in the craft section of Spotlight, and bought a plain black bra on clearance in Kmart.

Then I spent the next five afternoons hand sewing all those buttons onto it while watching a LOT of TV. I love the diamond shaped button that fits exactly between the cups. It was the only button of that shape in the whole bag and it’s just the perfect size.

    Wonderfull!!! I love the way that it came out, and how the different shades of pink look so nice over the black bra. Also is lovely that the gym did this contest for such a cause. I congratulate you for participating and being a “Carin]g and aware” person. We all have to support each other, and this way was fun and enjoyable for sure too!!!
