I was pointed to this forum for help when I stuff up my home made attempts at crafts or products for dogs. I always make them as I would like one myself but make more so I can recoup the cost of materials and give the rest away to a hound charity.
I paint and draw dogs
just a small selection of past attempts
I dabbled in necklace making/selling, brought £200 worth of stock and sold 5
I do still make this style
necklaces and bracelets in wire and beads, but it takes me a while to make them due to a gammy hand.
I am now attempting to make hound/martingale collars but havent quite got it right, but at least the kennel dogs for my local greyhound rescue get to have my cast offs I only want to make them as I like really different collars so to save money thought I would make them myself, shame I havent quite got the hang of it yet.
And with out sounding like I have just had a big big moan, I love to make things, it keeps me busy and I love it when others like what I do, but I really like it when I can sell things and give the money away to help more houndies.
I do it all for her
yes that is a skateboard, its hers and we do dance demos (only a few) to promote rescues
my old girl, pepper who is currently 11 (and all those photos were taken since aug)
plus my foster lad
a GRWE dog still looking for his forever sofa
So expect me to come up with frequent hair brained schemes and needing help with them
