October goes to...!! :D

As I am sure everyone is well aware, the month of October is always Breast Cancer Awareness month. Making extra sure everyone is getting there exams and also doing monthly even weekly self exams to increase the awareness and knowledge about this very dangerous and unfortunate disease. I wanted to make a post to dedicate awareness to others as well and also put some ideas up if your wanting to do some creative decorating to also spread awareness to others! =) I am sure all of you are wearing your little ribbons or wearing pink this month so here are some other ways to be supportive and creative!



Here is a super cute idea if you are thinking about having a Breast Cancer Awareness party or gathering of any kind! Hand dipped strawberries with little ribbon and pink decorations.

 

Adorable and also helpful! Welcome mats are always used to wipe your feet before you enter the home and is usually the first thing you look at before you enter through the door, why not remind your guests about the seriousness of breast cancer while they are wiping their feet!



 Here is a great way to add a little something to your home while still supporting the cause. Quilts are a great thing to have in your home and can have anything on them you want! Why not make it for breast cancer awareness!? You can use it when you get a little cold on those winter nights or drape it during the month of October any where you think it will be seen! You could even hang it on the wall or put it in your car!



 


 

These two wreaths are great ways to put a little notification on your door for breast cancer. You can hand make them which is the great thing about these DIY projects, there are so many possibilities with what you can use and put into these creations! The top one uses buttons and the bottom ribbons. There are endless options for the creations!!


 Lastly if you just want something very subtle and your not looking to create a huge thing out of it or make something there are plenty of pink ribbons to put on your car. They make everything for this cause.

Everyone please, be aware this month and EVERY month. Ladies AND gentlemen, you aren't excluded men, you can get breast cancer too its just not as common, still be aware! Know yourself, get your check ups and do self exams. More people catch cancer themselves because you know your body better than your doctor and lives can be saved! Save a life spread awareness and information to people, tell them about the seriousness of this disease. Someday it may save their life.
