Butterflies



I just finished my 52nd butterfly. It's heartbreaking when you realize how many of us are in the baby loss club. I have been slacking a bit on getting the butterflies made because I've just been burnt out on coloring. So, this morning I came up with a new design. I think they're quite cute. I hope you like them. I love to send the butterflies out to their rightful owners. If you'd like your butterfly mailed to you, just send me your info in an email- briannemeg@yahoo.com. I still have quite of few butterflies that need to be made. If you don't see your butterfly here or your name below, please requet a butterfly by leaving me a comment.

**UPDATED 10/15/09- All butterfly requests have been filled. You may request butterflies here, by clicking on Ella's Parade of Butterflies, or by emailing me. :)

  1. Oh, Bree. Oh my goodness. You have no idea how much I needed to see this today. You honestly just saved my whole day---seeing my babies' names just makes me feel peace, never sadness.
    Thank you so, so, so much. I am so grateful.

  7. I absolutely LOVE the new look of the butterflies. I think it will give your hand a rest from coloring as well. There are so many possibilities at the craft stores you could go crazy! :) I can imagine how this brings the mommies some comfort & also how this must bring you some healing as well. I would LOVE for you to make my little angel, Janessa Marie, a butterfly. I have been trying to get things her birthstone color which is green but any color with her name on it would be beautiful to me. Thank you for doing these for all the families out there.
