New Jewelry at Shadow Dog Designs, Handmade, One of a Kind

It has been a good while since I shared any new jewelry here on my blog.  Spring is always busy with planting flowers.  I choose mostly native plants that are proven to attract pollinators:  hummingbirds, butterflies, bees and/or wasps.  A hearty dose of cosmos, zinnias and sunflower seeds are planted also planted, all also very attractive to pollinators.  Another dust is brewing outside, so I decided to pull togther a blog of the eight newest pairs of earrings along with two of the newest necklaces.  If something catches your eye, please either click on the photo or the link and you'll be taken to the item in my SHADOW DOG DESIGNS shop for more information.  All of the jewelry is handmade and are one of a kind designs.  Thanks for stopping by!

Make It an Artisans Mothers Day - Week 5 Gifts - 2025

RED ALERT!  Mother’s Day will be here very, very soon - in fact, it's next Sunday, May 11.  It’s still not too late to order a handmade gift (do it now!) from the beauties shared this week on the Countdown to Mother's Day 2025 Week 5.  The Countdown was hosted again this year by Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog.  Hard to believe this is the last week of the Countdown - time sure flies by!  Despite that, 8 handmade artisans shared a total of 24 wonderfully unique items, some of them one of a kind designs. Browse the wide range of eye catching shares for this week, visit the shops of the artists featured and buy your Mom, Grandmother, aunties (or yourself!) something that was HANDMADE from the heart!  By shopping small, you'll also support a small indie business (and for that, we are eternally grateful!). 

Featured below are my favorites from this week's Countdown to Mother's Day:
