Eleven New Necklaces and Earrings Handmade by Shadow Dog Designs
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.
Terrific Turquoise - Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade
Since I live in the Desert Southwest, turquoise is a definite favorite of people, both the gemstone itself and the color. Turquoise is a shade of blue that lies on the color scale between blue and green. It has psychological characteristics associated with both of those colors: the calmness of blue and the growth that is represented in green. Turquoise is said to be a color that balances blue, green and yellow, linking it to emotional balance. It is a color promotes a feeling of serenity and stability. I don’t know about you, but whenever I work with turquoise, I do feel a great sense of peace and calmness.
Terrific Turquoise is the theme of today’s Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade blog. Each artisan handmade item selected uses the color turquoise (or even the gemstone itself) as a major part of the design or as a beautiful accent. Most of these beauties are one of a kind designs and all are made from the heart. I hope you enjoy these handmade creations using the color turquoise.

All Creatures Great and Small - Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade - January 27, 2016
I have always been a huge lover of animals, whether they have hair, feathers or scales - always have and always will. Growing up on a small ranch in the Texas Hill Country, all of the usual suspects were there: dogs, horses, cats, goats, cows, chicken, ducks, geese, pigs, rabbits and many others. As a science teacher, my room housed many animals, from a huge boa to fun Madagascar hissing cockroaches, from parakeets to African hooded rats, from punk rock guinea pigs to flying geckos, and many other creatures. And my life has always been shared with dogs, all adopted or "strays that came to stay."

With Thanksgiving almost here, Shop Small Saturday and CyberMonday are not far behind.

Many creations are one of a kind, with each artist putting more than a bit of her heart and soul into each piece. A wide range of handmade gift ideas are featured, two from each artist. The first item shown has festive red in it, maybe more of a gift to wear during the holidays. The second choice is a piece that can be worn every day.
