Sewing and Clothing with a divine purpose!
Hi friends! I’m Ashley De Leon, founder of Better Hope. Better Hope is a growing line of handmade headbands, scarves, Scrunchies and turbans. The vision to create hair accessories came from a heavy burden in my heart for cancer patients and those who are the beloved’s and friend’s of those in the fight to win and those who lost the battle... but will win the war!
I also do this for those who has been a victim and/or life has been taken in sexual abuse including sex trafficking and domestic violence relationships . Those who are affected by social media and school bullying. Those who lost a loved one because of suicide. And those who have been abandoned, rejected, and treated like an outcast. This is for all those who are battling ANY kind of sickness and diseases! There’s a better Hope for EVERYONE!
I don’t make these items just only for fun, although, I'm not a beginner in this craft but also haven't MASTER it either. I make them for a purpose. A purpose of bringing forth Hope to a hopeless generation. A generation that’s hurting, suffering and lost. But also a generation that’s putting their hope in things that are temporary and gives temporary happiness which there's no real value in that. So, I playfully and innocently put this disclaimer out! *EVERY ITEM MAY NOT BE PERFECTLY MADE* But items are definitely professional, cleanly cut, finished and polished!
I have a message to share. It’s a message of a Better Hope! Someone who we can trust and know without the fear of being judged, criticized, bullied or forgotten. Someone who we can run to for a perfect peace no matter what the test results says because our life is found in Him, with no time frame. Someone who we can lean on and burry our faces onto His lap when life becomes very unfair and don’t understand why any of this is happening. In the midst of all the pain, suffering, anxiety and temporary fixes to fulfill a void that can’t seem to be filled... let us look UP to a Better Hope that doesn’t fade away with time.
His name is... Jesus.
Better Hope goals are to help give back to these communities. To give to the sick, poor, hurting, lost, hopeless... the list goes on. Better Hope desires to make its rounds at hospitals, donating these precious turbans to those who have lost their hair because of treatments. To freely give scrunchies and headbands along with counseling and directions to teens that's battling abuse at home and at school. To clothe the crown and glory (hair) with a beautiful scarf to the women who have been sexually abused or rescue from sex trafficking. Instead of them hiding behind shame they will be wrapped in the Hope of Grace! We cannot give back without you! Your support is greatly appreciated and needed! Share the word and BE the word!
Thank you,
