Whilst poking about on the world-wide-inter-web and feeling mighty inspired by the crafty work of others I came upon a lovely little site called A Beautiful Idea. The brainchild of Miss Evie Shaffer, A Beautiful Idea sets out to save the world, one craft at a time. The concept is simple, artists create artwork, artists sell artwork, artists donate proceeds to A Beautiful Idea and the money goes to those in need. The best part: crafty-folk can choose how much to donate and every six months (or when the donation goal has been reached) ABI focuses its' efforts on a new charity. So far the site appears to be in its nascent stages and still searching for supporters. It is a small, small world, dear artists, and creating changes like this are highly encouraged.
