HBA Donating 50% SALES OF MMB'S !!

For those of you that know me well, you know who my best friend is, Sarah Hull, see photo above. She's been there through sooooo much of my life. Distance has kept us from seeing each other often over the years, but we try to talk as much as possible. Please read & listen to her story about her battle with cancer and consider purchasing one of her daughter's original bows. 50% of MMB Sales will be donated to Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

In the past 48 hours... since I posted the bows for sale, HBA has donated $14.51 in SALES of Miracle Meg's Bows !!!
