New Christmas Gift Ideas - Give Handmade Earrings This Year!
Posted December 15, 2018
Earrings are always a great gift for the woman who loves to wear them. They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes and colors and price ranges - always something perfect for the intended wearer that won’t break the bank. I’ve featured twelve pairs of earrings that can be found in my Shadow Dog Designs handmade jewelry shop: eight of the newest pairs listed and four sparkling pairs of Christmas earrings. I hope you enjoy browsing the beauties . . . and maybe at least one pair finds its way into your shopping cart and then under the Christmas tree.

In the opera, a group of children rehearse a Christmas song in July, to which a character responds: "When you sing Christmas in July, you rush the season."
