'Blog Pink' / Blogging Actually / Breast Cancer Awareness

Pink Friday #1: Let’s Paint The Blogosphere Pink!

This is ‘Blog Pink’ Campaign’s first pink-ified Friday post to support Breast Cancer Awareness.

Let’s spread the word and tell everyone that being breast aware plays an important role to fighting this dreaded disease as early as possible. There is hope. And there’s lots of support out there, and here. If we have to go all pink this year and for many years to come to beat breast cancer, then let’s all do it!

If you’ve not done so, please take a moment to read my first post on ‘What is Breast Cancer’ and the many ways that you can do to detect it. And don’t forget to visit these girlies blog to see how they’re making a difference.

Also check out this page that I’m dedicating to the wonderful and supportive bloggers, who kindly put up the ‘Blog Pink’ badge — here. 

Whether you’re from Blogger or WordPress — whichever platform you hail from — when it comes to a good cause, we all ‘Blog Pink’ together.

Please Like or Comment on their blog to show your ‘thumbs up’ on how their little gestures are appreciated and will make a difference. 🙂

Now then, let’s paint this post pink, shall we?

A wonderful contribution for a good cause from Keeley. Took 10 minutes to make? Mine would take all day!

And who said Pink can’t be sweet? Check out below.

Say hello to Angie from The Charmed Cupcake, who’s also waving pink cupcakes on her blog! I’m a big fan of cupcakes and Angie happened to be the Goddess of Cupcakes! So I made her this little pink header 😉

(Ok, wayyy to many cupcake words here! haha)

My pink glittery ribbon from my local Cancer Research UK charity shop. Pink and glitters go together. 

Give Sarah’s lifeinabreakdown.com a big HUG & LOVE for helping out in spreading the word and letting me guest post for the very first time!

And lastly, my first ever attempt to use this chalk-tastic set I bought from my local Cancer Research Charity Shop for £2.95. 
I know I really suck at ‘hands on’ DIY but this was fun to do plus chalk all over the place!

 

Until next Pink Friday! I will be sharing with you the great finds from the charity shop/s that I took home, and how these little purchases will contribute towards a good cause. Also more details on how breastfeeding can actually prevent breast cancer with some statistics.

P.S. Don’t forget to browse around and come back tomorrow for my October Featured blogger. Hint: It’s going to be oh-so-frugaliciously awesome!

    • Thank you my love! Really appreciate it. And apologies for not replying sooner. Do give me a nudge once you’ve done your pink post so I can put your link as well on my Pink Friday post. 🙂

  1. Hi Donah, this is amazing and a praiseworthy act! I couldn’t join earlier for some personal reasons, but definitely will this week. I’ve shared it on facebook and hope many other girls will join us too.

    • Thanks Mel! You’re so cool! You’re always here when you’re over there (meaning blogger) hehehe really appreciate your support. If you want to do some guest posting on my blog to showcase your love for nails and coffee, give me a buzz or email me, I always have a spot for you 😉

      • Thank you very much, I feel so honored! As soon as my poor little nails recover I can make notd or something like that 😉
        Feel free to do the same, you know I’ve already invited you 🙂

  2. Hi D! I just tear up when I see posts like these, you know, promoting cancer awareness, don’t know why but I do. I think it’s awesome that you’re blogging about it, along with the other bloggers, and when I do find time I’d love to do a post or three about it, I don’t want to do a quicky something. Keep on blogging sunshine 😀

    • Aww bless you. I know what you mean my friend. I always feel like this and I think that is our utmost and deepest sympathy kicking in right there. I hope that we can do even better than just blogging about it, but definitely with everyone together, this will raise awareness and hopefully make that little difference. You let me know once you’ve done, and I’ll link you up on my next Pink Friday post. 🙂
