Stars Design Candle Holders to Cure Parkinson’s

Ricky Gervais, Robbie Coltrane, Elaine Paige and several other British celebrities have designed 34 bone china candle holders for charity to raise awareness for Parkinson’s disease.

Sir Michael Caine, Geri Halliwell and Matt Lucas among others, will also be signing photos. They’re being auctioned on eBay for 10 days starting at 7pm tonight until Friday March 4^th.

It’s a good cause and some of the unique designs aren’t bad. My favourite candle holder design is by celebrity chef Ainsley Harriott, but then I’m a foodie and a fan.

To see the designs and/or bid on these unique candle holders, go to Illuminate (Celebrity Designed and Signed Candle Holders).

Yes, we know — it might seem odd to say “we’re not commenting” while… saying something at all. But here’s the thing: when a name so closely tied to the crochet world makes headlines for something this serious, not acknowledging it could feel like we’re sweeping it under the rug. And that’s not who we are. We have numerous posts and patterns that link to Jonah’s hands; these were all published PRIOR to any allegations. At this stage, we have not decided whether to remove the content.

We’re not here to speculate, fuel drama, or chase clicks on someone else’s pain. We’re here to clarify where we stand about Jonah’s Hands.
– This is a police matter.
– Jonah Larson is still a minor.
– We will not comment on the case.

We’ve always believed that crafting is a safe, supportive space. That doesn’t mean ignoring real-world events — but it does mean handling them with care and responsibility.

Let’s continue to support one another and keep this space kind, creative, and community-focused.
