Dog and Cat Lover Jewelry Handmade by Shadow Dog Designs
Posted January 16, 2022
Since I am a huge advocate of ADOPT DON'T SHOP when it comes to adding a new dog (or cat) to the family, I have been making a line of dog and cat rescue jewelry for many years now. When a piece of dog / cat rescue jewelry is sold from my SHADOW DOG DESIGNS shop or at an arts festival, ½ (one half) of the purchase price is donated to an animal rescue organization. I try to keep the donations local whenever I can, but will donate to needy groups in other states that have faced disasters from hurricanes, fires, flooding, etc. As with all of my jewelry (except for a few styles of Christmas earrings), the necklace and earrings in the rescue line are one of a kind designs. I’m highlighting seven designs in this post, but there are a few more in my shop here: https://bit.ly/RescueJewelrySD. New designs are usually added on a monthly basis. Please browse the necklace and earrings below - if something catches your eye, either click on the photo or the link below to get more information and see more photos. I hope you enjoy the jewelry made with love to try to help the sweet souls who are desperately waiting for their furever home.

Menagerie - Animal Inspired Handmade Jewelry by Shadow Dog Designs
Posted July 29, 2021
Menagerie: a collection of animals, frequently exotic, kept for display. The term was first used in 17th-century France, in reference to the management of household or domestic stock.
Anyone who knows me knows I love animals in all shapes and sizes - always have, always will. So I wanted to share a collection of animal jewelry with you that can be found in my Shadow Dog Designs handmade jewelry shop. Even though these animals found on these earrings and necklaces are not alive, they can definitely be termed a menagerie since there is a wide variety, from exotic animals, such as tigers and giraffes, to domestic animals, like dogs and cats. If something catches your eye and you want to see more photos and information, please click on the photo or the link below the picture to be taken directly to the item. I hope you enjoy this menagerie of one of a kind jewelry!

Posted May 13, 2021
It has been quite a while since I shared new jewelry designs found in my SHADOW DOG DESIGNS shop. It seems the days . . . and the weeks . . . . and the months just speed right on by. I've been spending a LOT of time outside working in flower beds and just sitting and enjoying all the birds and other animals that come to the back yard. And watching Seamus be his goofy dog self. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous so the pull to be outside is greater than the pull to be in front of the computer. Today I'm sharing eleven new designs in my shop, all one of a kind jewelry. As you can see there is a wide range of desgins: some simple and some more comlicated, some small and some big and bold. And there are several new animal rescue designs which, when sold, one-half of the purchase price goes to an animal recue organization. I hope you enjoy these pieces. And be sure to visit my shop to see other unique jewelry: SHADOW DOG DESIGNS.
