October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Inspired By You & Co and our friends at Empower Events want to help raise breast cancer awareness. My grandmother Rosemary, a breast cancer survivor, and I will be leading the project at Empower Events. There will be special pink mason jars available for decoration along with pink and white decorations.

 Each jar will be five dollars as well, but will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. After you completed the jar, we inspire you to write an empowering note to place inside. We will be distributing these jars to local hospitals in LA and The Chippewa Valley to Breast Cancer patients. We hope to raise women's hopes and spirits during these hard times.

Cami and I are so excited to see all of you at the Empower Events headquarters on October 10th to make fun decorations for your home as well as helping a good cause. If you have any questions or comments call Amie at 715-867-5309 or Cami at 651-867-5309

"Hey Amie, how'd you get so handy?"

One brisk fall day in 2011, Sully and I were on our daily walk when I noticed a huge group of people downtown New Richmond wearing red shirts. Being the nosey person I am, I striked up a conversation with a few of them. They were volunteering around the community with an organization called, "Faith Works." Faith Works helps local community members who have fallen on hard times with improvement projects. Of course I had to jump right in and lend a hand. That's the day I found my passion for simple, affordable, and easy home improvements.
Local New Richmond Volunteers
Throughout the years I have attended many different workshops to expand my horizon on DIY projects. Through the numerous classes I have learned to connect with DIY'ers at any level from your beginners to your Bob Villa's of  home improvement. Inspired By You & Co. is dedicated to helping all members of the community whether is from updating your wall color to building your own garden shed and compost pile.
Wall Color Update
Each fall Faith Works and Inspired By You & Co. partners together to help clean up and winterize the local community. If you're interested in volunteering with Inspired By You & Co. please call Amie at Inspired By You & Co. at 715-867-5309
