Purple is Perfect for Spring - Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade

Posted March 16, 2016

 

 

Over the centuries, purple has been regarded as the color of royalty and is also thought of as a color of creativity.  It also has a softer side being one of the first colors of spring that pops up in its many hues and shades on flowers.  It is near the top of my list of favorite colors, as are the two colors that combine to make purple.  Many, many people, especially women according to research, have a passion for the color purple, and I can see why with its oh-so-rich color!  I decided to do a bit of research about the color purple and share a bit of what I found.  And, also shared, are beautiful handmade artisan creations featuring purples.

Unique New Handmade Jewelry from Shadow Dog Designs

Posted March 4, 2016

Lots of new handmade jewelry designs went into my Shadow Dog Designs Indiemade shop the last two weeks.  I have been busy, busy, busy creating new necklaces and earrings.  Arts Festivals are coming up so the shop needs to be well stocked because the shows will (hopefully) draw from the design that are there and the ones that will not be listed.  The designs continue to be a combination of boho, of elegance and everything in between - wherever the Muses take me.  I hope you enjoy looking at the new beauties.  Two oldies but goodies have been added to make an even 10 jewelry designs.  To see more photos and information of each, please click the link below each photo:

The Language of Flowers - Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade

Posted February 17, 2016

 

There is a language, little known,

Lovers claim it as their own.

Its symbols smile upon the land,

Wrought by nature's wondrous hand ...

–The Language of Flowers, London, 1875

New Handmade Jewelry by Shadow Dog Designs

Posted July 16, 2015

 

 

 

 

 

 

WHEW!!!  It is a lot of work to develop a new web site (and to keep another one going).  The making of the jewelry is the easy part.  It's the photographing, photo editing, deciding which pictures to use and in what order, writing each description filled with good SEO and captioning each photo, all these take up so much time.  Not to mention all the promoting that needs to be done afterwards so the new, one of a kind jewelry can actually be found!  WHEW - makes me tired!

Just Who Is "Shadow Dog Designs?"

Posted March 27, 2015

 

My name is Catherine and I create unique, mostly one-of-a-kind jewelry using semi-precious stones and sterling silver. But I also love to integrate bone, copper, brass, polymer clay, lampwork and many other different non-stone components in my handmade work. Also incorporated into many designs are pendants and beads from my wide range of artist friends, making a piece designed with them that much extra special.  I have fun “working” at what I love!
