“Sticks and Stones” – A New “Branch” of Woods and Willow Jewelry
Woods and Willow is putting our nature-inspired jewelry designs towards a good cause, namely, anti-bullying initiatives. 

This new "Sticks and Stones" cuff creation was inspired by the old nursery rhyme of the same name. I am personally vested in this cause. My sister is mentally challenged and was ridiculed relentlessly at school, so I know first-hand how hurtful this was to her and to our entire family. This was years ago and there was not much you could do to stop this. But today, we have organized programs….we have hope. 

Proceeds from the sale of these pieces will go to anti-bullying organizations in support of bringing national attention on bullying incidents occurring throughout the country and developing resolutions to end this epidemic. 
Did you know……..

1. 60% of middle school students say that they have been bullied.
2. 160,000 students stay home from school every day due to bullying. 
3. In schools where there are anti-bullying programs, bullying is reduced by 50%.

This Sterling Silver Cuff is handcrafted from sticks and stones I've collected in the woods, softly hammered for texture and the stones are accented in 22kt Genuine Gold. These beautiful cuffs are easily adjusted to your wrist by squeezing it to fit. They are hand stamped with those three words as a gentle reminder to think about others' feelings before speaking.

So please join this movement to end bullying while at the same time, wearing handcrafted, Woods and Willow jewelry that contributes to educating our young children on the benefits of positive behavior and how together, we CAN build a kinder world!
