This year, the 3 Day is using the song Pink Warrior by Candy Coburn as their theme song. The warrior woman in me was inspired to combine my passion to find a cure with my love of chain maille (the armor of warriors past). My goal with Athena's Armoury is to equip your inner warrior with chain maille to bring out your strength and confidence. Whether you are undergoing chemo, have won the battle, are supporting a loved one, know someone who has lost the fight, or are standing up to have your voice heard... you have the heart of a warrior.
I'm thrilled to share with you the beginnings of the collection. There will be a few pieces in the collection that will be remade after they sell, but there will also be many one of a kind items that once they sell they are gone. It's important to me to include these unique items as a reminder that every situation and every person dealing with breast cancer is unique and have their own battle to face. There are many more pieces coming in the future; including more jewelry and accessories, but also housewares like candle holders and dream catchers.
All items are available in both Athena's Armoury on Etsy as well as Artfire.
And if you haven't checked it out yet, don't miss my handmade raffle benefiting the 3 Day! All you have to do is check out all of the amazing goodies that have been donated, buy tickets (aka: make a donation), and then let me know about it. Easy peasy.

LOVE the pink! The mobius flower is a really neat link! Can't wait to see more!
what? you aren't making a pink maille bra?
you're kick ass anyway ;]
Thanks, Stacey! There is definitely more coming. I'm hoping to have some time next weekend to make some more.
Julie: You had to mention the maille bra, huh? You know it's on my list of projects to play with, right? Thanks for the nudge. Maybe I'll try working on one this week.
