After walking the other day, Paris handed me a big, huge, brightly colored and beautifully wrapped box. The kind that you don't even want to open, it's so beautiful. A gift in itself. Inside the big box, I discovered a gorgeous 12x12" handmade, framed "HOPE" acrostic poem, scrapbook page, a big bag of "Hope Cookies", a wire "Hope" word that you can hang on the wall and a stunning, handmade, hand beaded "Hope" necklace designed by Paris' 13 year old Natalie herself!
For all of you out there that might have someone in their life that need a little hope, consider sending them a custom made "Box of Hope" to brighten their day/life!
Thanks Natalie and Paris. Love you both!

I'm glad that you liked your "box of hope". Nat and I had such fun putting it together. We both love you so much. Huge hugs to you, Nat and Paris
I love the wire wall hanging. If you look at it differently it says "I Cope". The H is an I and a C. Very true that hope includes cope.
Keep up your hope and cope. You are my super hero.

That is the coolest gift!!!!!!!! WTG, Dukes ladies!!! What a terrific idea.
Where did you end up hanging your "Hope"?? Can you hang in near your Angel of Hope?
