DIY Dog Delights To Save You Money

Dog accessories can get costly. I know this from my own experience shopping for my BIG, sweet puppy dog. It doesn't have to be, though, as these DIY creations show.

If you are not the crafty type (or just don't have the time), you can have something delivered to your door from one of these handmade shops.

* Note: Unfortunately, I did not find anyone that made "mud mittens," so you will have to buckle down & make it. Thus, I snuck a photo of my own pup - Ha ha! If you do know of someone that does offer them, please leave a comment with info!

Blessings & joy, yours truly . . . Corrinne Quinn

(I was motivated to create this post by Pin & Tack's charity, Dogs for the Deaf, which will receive $1 from every item sold at both shops. I urge you to donate directly, though, if you don't need or want anything from my shop. Thank you so much!)

I Need Help!

Eeek! I really need help from all of you crafty people, especially those that use digital stamps.

Do you recognize that girl image? I chose it as my win for a challenge blog. Unfortunately, I wasn't very organized & I didn't keep track of the company that it came from!

Yes, I'm horrible! If you know anything about it, please leave me a comment. I think the artist's name is Heather, but I don't know what her shop name is. She has a website & an Etsy shop. I would appreciate it so so much!

I have organized all of my digital stamps, so I know where I received them from because I very much want to credit the creators.

{UPDATED: Thank you, Deanne & Tonya, for helping me out with the graphic designer information. The digital stamp used is from Heather Ellis! }
