No cake; no candles.
However, there's a gift for one of you!
As many of you know, my mom passed away earlier this month.
Today, February 26, is her birthday.
I decided to celebrate with a giveaway and a special sale at For Love of a Dog.
When you visit For Love of a Dog, you'll see that my Dog Mom jewelry is on sale, plus some specific dog breed jewelry, too: Pit Bull, Labrador Retriever, Cocker Spaniel, Beagle, Dachshund, Fox Terrier, Lhasa Apso (Shih Tzu.) These are the breeds of dog that were my mom's special life companions. Maybe they're yours, too.
A Dog Mom bracelet seemed appropriate for this giveaway. This one is in her favorite colors: purple and red!
This is a one of kind piece of dog lover jewelry that I created specially for this celebration.
The focal is a hand crafted purple porcelain dog bone with DOG MOM hand inscribed. The dog bone is surrounded by a variety of chubby artisan lampwork beads in shades of purple and lavender. Pale lavender core with purple raised dots, a looping scroll design, and a drum rondelle.
The clasp is a silver heart with paw print lobster claw. To finish things just right, I added an artisan lampwork heart that is nicely fat and scarlet red.
A $75 value, this chunky bracelet will be re-sized to the winner's wrist measurement.
This give away is open to residents of the US and Canada (sorry, International friends!.) There are lots of chances to win: tweet every day (10 chances per day are possible), follow For Love of a Dog / Talking Dogs on Twitter, and comment on this blog.
One winner will be chosen at random by Rafflecopter. That winner will need to respond within 24 hours or an alternate winner will be chosen. Questions? Contact me: sue (at) forloveofadog (dot) com
