Clothesline Pins to Benefit Shalom
Bayit

Inspired
by the Clothesline Project, these beautiful pins, created by artist
Bonnie Shelley, are unique pieces of jewelry. The Clothesline
Project was started in 1990 to address the issue of violence against
women. It is a vehicle for
women affected by violence to express
their emotions by decorating a shirt. The shirt is then hung on a clothesline to be viewed by others as a testimony to the problem of
violence against women. The pins are available in a variety of
colors, and each one is attached to a card describing the Clothesline
Project. The
pins are being sold for $15/each. All proceeds directly benefit
Project Shalom Bayit. T order pins contact the Section office at
425-558-1894. For more information about the artist, visit http://www.clotheslinepins.com.
