Virgin.com Post!
Hey Kickstarter! I first want to say THANK YOU to my amazing backers as I make this video. If I could sing, I would sing you all a beautiful song.
I wanted to update everyone to show the absolutely amazing profile I received from Virgin.com about my bow ties. Even better then the article, Virgin will be sending me a piece of a Virgin hot air balloon that I will repurpose into a bowtie(s). Words cannot express how excited I am - but maybe caps lock can - I AM SO EXCITED. That made a difference right?
Please check out the Virgin People & Planet article here and read about the amazing Virgin balloon flights upcycling here.
Special super thanks to Helen Craig (@helcraig) and Kirsty Mills (@KirstyMMills) for believing in me and writing the articles.
Thank you to everyone that has liked the project or shared the project. Please keep spreading the #bowtielove!
