It is amazing the response of our fundraiser for TRAVIS MILLS.  The cuffs are selling like hotcakes!
Everyday we have to take more downtown (Vassar, Michigan)  to  C&S Jewelry.  Also, lots of sales online at Cangles.com.

The more we sell the more money can go to the Mills Family Fund.  Thanks to everyone that is making this a very big success.

Here at Cangles we are selling a cuff made especially for Travis Mills.
Travis is from Vassar, Michigan where we live.  He had all four of his limbs blown
off in Afghanistan. 
For every cuff sold we are giving the Mills Family Fund  $7.00.  We know that
this is a great cause.  The response has been great.  We are selling them locally at
C&S Jewelry and at Cangles.com.

Earth Day History

April 22nd marks the 42th anniversary of Earth Day. John McConnell was a peace activist who first proposed Earth Day in 1969 to celebrate Earth’s life and beauty. Senator Gaylord Nelson (D-WI) is credited for making Earth Day official because he proposed a bill asking Congress for a nationwide celebration to be held annually on April 22nd.

The first official Earth Day was celebrated in 1970 when as many as 20 million Americans participated in nationwide environmental rallies, demonstrations and other activities. Since then, Earth Day has transformed from a grassroots movement into a worldwide citizen crusade. In 1990, Earth Day went global when 200 million people in 141 countries participated in activities and events.

Earth Day

Get ready to celebrate Earth Day, because the world’s largest environmental fair will take place in San Diego on April 22.

Great news for those of you in the San Diego area - - Cangles will be there.   

Fashion at the Needle - Seattle

For those of you in the Seattle area this is a great event and Cangles jewelry is a part of the show.


Fashion at the Needle are fashion shows that are produced by volunteers, models, fashion designers,  and small businesses for the communities in which we serve.
We promote the idea that we as consumers have control over what is “fashionable” and that fashion shows create jobs!

Autism Awareness

April is Autism awareness Month. 

We at Cangles have designed jewelry where a portion of the sales will go to Autism Speaks.

There were a number of people that requested and gave ideas  to help us design this line.

Earth Day 2012

One of the first things we can do is to recycle our aluminum cans.  At Cangles we do this every day.

Craft project for Kids

Make a coaster out of Scrabble tiles.

You can either find Scrabble tiles around your own house or at garage sales.  Spring is a great time for going
to garage sales and finding things you can recycle and reuse/repurpose.



Supplies you need:


Scrabble tiles
Decoupage Solution
Foam Brush
Cardboard
Felt
Scissors
Glue

Arrange the tiles in any pattern you like-but it has to be square.
Glue to a piece of cardboard cut to the finished size of the tiles. Coat with several layers of decoupage letting it dry between coats. Glue a piece of felt to the bottom.
