Beaded Chinese Chow Chow Pin + Cyber Monday!
Dear friends, just a quick update ahead of Cyber Monday.. Check out my latest beaded dog pin - a Chinese Chow Chow!! This piece was listed for sale on Etsy and SOLD in just a matter of days! Its unique texture was created by layering tiny glass seed beads using a needle and thread. And the tail was created by sewing beads onto a thin sterling silver wire - the tail actually moves when you touch it. Scroll through my Facebook page to view the progress of this piece.

I am also experimenting with a new product line - minimalist beaded cuff bracelets featuring your favorite dog or animal. This piece was created by stitching a tiny bead-embroidered Yorkshire Terrier to a sterling silver split cuff bracelet. This bracelet is lightweight and adjustable, perfect for those who work typing at a keyboard all day! I think I will have to make this design in other breeds. What do you think?
