Heifer International: This organization
was our chosen charity for 2007. By selling Helen's logo pendants, we were able to purchase a
water buffalo for a family in the Philippines. Check back to find out more about our 2008 pick, and
thanks to everyone who purchased a pendant and helped us to achieve this goal for 2007.
Kozmickid: Some of you may notice that my own jewelry is now
missing from this site. In order to focus this site more on artisan ceramic beads, I've moved it to my Etsy store. Please check
there often for unique earrings, eclectic necklaces, and more. Want something in Buckeye gray and red? This is the place to look!
Earthen Soul Beads: In this store, I've listed some of my ceramic pendants,
buttons and pieces that, for whatever reason, I didn't want to list on Embroidered Soul. Perhaps it was a style I didn't think I
wanted to continue, or perhaps it was an experimental piece that I was seeking a forum for. Look here if you want to see more of Helen
O'Donnell's work.
Little Feather's Spirit: This is the site
of talented wire and bead artist, Mary Tanner. While Mary's website is still under development,

issue and will be coming out also in the 2009 Bead a Day calendar.
