Earring Aid

I mentioned on Monday that it's Dementia Action Week. Here's a small action which can help - declutter your jewellery box.
The Alzheimer's Society can make use of unwanted items, top quality stuff or less expensive pieces even broken or unmatched pieces! That's right, even odd earrings and cufflinks can be recycled and repurposed to provide funds for this worthwhile charity.
I've a few tinsful of baubles  bangles and beads, that I've kept meaning to incorporate into other projects. Lots of favourite, but widowed, earrings. I shall never get round to using them all. So l shall be sending the bulk to the AS. 
If you want to do the same you can go to the website and they'll send you a prepaid Jiffy Bag [Click here for link] Start sorting now, they say that lots of people have requested them so you may have a week or two to wait for your envelope to arrive.
