You can start wherever you want, however, make sure to visit the blogs of our talented design team members. Also, please make sure to visit the Kiki Art blogs (English, French, and Spanish) to be eligible to win.Each design team member was asked to select an organization that commits to helping others. Then, they created a 
project based on their organization featuring Kiki Art products. Make sure to take note of each organization/good cause each DT member has selected. 

When you hop from blog to blog, hopefully you will get inspired by all of the beautiful Kiki Art work. We also hope that you are inspired to do good by getting involved in an effort to create a better world through these organizations.

• How to get a prize from the Kiki Art blog?

• How to get a prize from a Kiki Art design team member blog?
Many members of our design team have decided to give away a project that is related to the good cause they believe in. Leave a comment on their blog hop posts, and they will pick a random winner.

Hello All, 

Whew, where have I been! 
First, I am sorry to be posting a little late.... omg, I am having THE worst allergy season known to man! Of which I try to take just about every over the counter medicine to stop the sneezing... which in turn causes absolute and total sleepiness. Yuck, it's a vicious cycle. 

But!
Here I am!


I am so glad you decided to stop by! I am one of the lucky few designers that had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Kiki and she is amazing. Her passion for good causes is real and alive! I give her credit for seeing a bigger picture and encouraging us to do the same. So, if you want to get involved with a really great company with really good people running it...ask your LSS to look into Kiki-Art products!

My cause, which is very dear to my heart, is Alzheimer's. Some refer to it as the long goodbye, and I couldn't agree more. My grandfather suffers from it and unfortunately doesn't really remember who I am. He requires 24 hour care and is wheel chair bound. We need to research more about this cause! 

If you want to take a moment to look at this cause you can read about it here:

Here is my Kiki inspiration for you: 











And my blog candy... 

(which is carry over from my last blog candy because I didn't get many takers...
but those of you who were entered I will add you to this one! ) 





Thanks for visiting and checking out all of our good causes! Don't forget to ask your LSS to carry Kiki-Art! A portion of her proceeds go to some of these amazing causes!


Cheers.

Nicole
