Favorite Dog Bone Jewelry Gifts at For Love of a Dog

Recently I've shared some of my favorite new creations including "The Rosie" and "Big Heart" necklaces.  Since our August giveaway is a copper dog bone necklace, I thought I'd share a few of my favorite pieces of dog bone jewelry.

Because most of my dogs have been mixed breed mutts, my dog breed jewelry just doesn't cut it for me personally.  Dog bones have been my favorite theme for years and I still love them.

It's hard to pick a favorite from, but I think I'd have to say I simply adore the turquoise lampwork bracelet shown above.  I know some don't like the term "dog mom,"  but around my house I am the dog mama and my dogs are my favorite babies.  I love the pretty white and turquoise daisy floral lampwork beads combines with sparkling turquoise faceted crystal rondelle beads.  Plus, the dog collar and dog bone toggle clasp makes me smile.

Here's another one of kind favorite from my rescue dog bone themed pieces,
my Adopt a Best Friend Dog Bone Lampwork Bracelet shown below:

I like the lively color combination of deep sky blue with deep rose and a hint of peridot green.  Such pretty little roses on these handmade lampwork beads.  Besides, I love the message of adopting a best friend. 

The WOOF dog bone necklace shown below appeals to me because of it's neutral caramel and biscuit brown colors.  Plus, it's so much fun!


Awhile back I imported some Ojime dog carvings from a craftsman in Hong Kong. They're rare and lovely!  I used one in in this dog bone and freshwater pearl necklace:


Though I'd have to say I really enjoy wearing almost all the styles of dog bone themed earrings I create, I dearly love dog bones combined with hearts like in these earrings shown below.  These could easily be called "For Love of a Dog Earrings."
OMD, it is so hard to just pick a few favorites to share with you!  If I could keep and wear them all, I probably would.  However, For Love of a Dog keeps me from being a dog jewelry hoarder!

Big Heart Big Love for Dogs | New Jewelry at For Love of a Dog


Last week I shared one of my new creations with you - the black Lab lampwork and crystal necklace that I was tempted to simply call "The Rosie."   I promised that I'd share the other piece that is a current personal favorite of mine.   And here it is.

Somehow it just seems right that a necklace for a dog lover would have a HUGE heart and lots of dog bones.  Am I right?  Of course I'm right.  BIG LOVE is what it's all about.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.  I'm thinking this necklace pretty much illustrates my business name:  For Love of a Dog.

While going through my stash of pendants and charms, I came across two super size chunky red sponge coral hearts.  Simple, a bit primitive, scarlet red color, and, let's face it, hunky! 
 
This red coral heart is 3/4" thickl and 1 1/4" in diameter.


So spectacular that I didn't want the necklace itself to distract from the statement of the heart.  So, I surrounded it with some great fat coral 14mm round beads and some wonderful three dimensional cream colored dog bones.  All hand wire wrapped with silver jeweler's wire.

I present to you the quintessential For Love of a Dog necklace:



This is a one of a kind necklace.  Wait a minute (that's what you're thinking.)  I said I found two of these humongous red coral hearts squirreled away in my studio.   Right.  However, I'm saving the last one for me!

You can fetch a look at all my new dog jewelry here.  I've recently made some beautiful dog breed necklaces and bracelets.  You can fetch your favorite dog breed here.

In fact, while you're at For Love of a Dog Jewelry, be sure to check out my items on sale.  You'll find drastic reductions on dog leash holders, plus Rainbow Bridge jewelry and dog breed Christmas ornaments are on sale right now, too!

I just added this new English Springer Spaniel dog lover necklace to For Love of a Dog.  I don't even have an English Springer Spaniel dog, but I love it!

Woof! Dog Bone Jewelry for People

I just can't resist a good dog woof, nor a dog bone!  Just yesterday I added some barking cute woof dog bone earrings to our For Love of a Dog shop.  Among them were this pair that are literally one of a kind.  I used little hand shaped mosaic tiles that are embossed with a dog bone shape proclaiming (what else?) WOOF.  I hand wire wrapped them with some gemstones for a dainty little dangle.  So cute!

And if you like those WOOF earrings, check out the one of a kind dog lover necklace shown below the dog bone earrings.

The pendant is a similar little mosaic tile that I've turned into a pendant, but in a warm ginger brown.  I created the necklace chain by using silver jeweler's wire to hand wire wrap gorgeous freshwater pearls together.  Be sure to notice the adorable toggle clasp.  It's a dog collar and dog bone!
