Those are great Rhonda! I got a few good ideas from them...

We are on our third annual Art Bra project/fundraiser (for the Breast Cancer Resource Centers of Texas) with my hometown support group... It will be April 18. I am making a 3 bras this year, and will be model for my third consecutive year.

It's call "Graphic" - and we always do a calendar. I was Miss October in 07 and Miss December in 08... it is so much fun! We silent auction the bras (we accept 75 total submissions) and the ones that we model in the show are live auctioned, right off of our bodies! LOL. (this year the celeb bras will be from Debbie Harry(all 3 years), Vickie Petersen (The Bangles), Kathy Valentine (The GoGos), Matthew McConaughey, The Dixie Chicks, Lance Armstrong... ) All others are by local artisans and survivors.

Thanks, Rhonda -
Love the way some have done the "play on words" themes. Worth taking a look - just scroll down the page.
