Title: Sandy Hook School Snowflake Information
Post by: Billy in Va on December 29, 2012, 11:02:53 pm

A friend alerted us to this tonight and I thought I would pass it on.  And today I painted 27 snowflakes white   :'(



Thank you to everyone who has donated snowflakes on behalf of the children of Sandy Hook  Elementary School and the community of Newtown. We know that each snowflake represents the emotional outreach of the person making it. We have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of generosity from around not just the country but the world. At this time, we have enough beautiful snowflakes to blanket the community of Newtown. Therefore, with regret we must close the snowflake project to further donations. Please take this idea and your snowflakes and create a winter wonderland of your own in your community as a show of solidarity for our Newtown families. Please share your winter wonderlands with us. We would love to share your pictures with the families of Sandy Hook and all the other participating communities. Also please read the message below from the PTA of the Sandy Hook Elementary School for another wonderful way to help. Thank you for your heartfelt and amazing creations and for all of your magnificent notes and kind wishes for the Newtown community.

Russ I would mail them anyway with a note saying to sell them to earn some money for the families.

The ones I cut from Russ's patterns I am giving to my daughter because her initials are SH and her children are going to decorate them for next Christmas.
