FeatherHeart gives bark, I mean, BACK! :-)

Most of you know Joey, my pal, whom I met at the TriCounty Humane Society, a wonderful, no kill shelter in Boca Raton, Florida -  http://www.tricountyhumane.org/

Joey suggested I put my money where my mouth is and so, we joined the volunteer branch of the shelter. A super group of people organized by Jannice Olson. Paws for the Cause is the name of the group and I urge you to join them at http://www.pawstricounty.com/ - They have great events in the Broward county area on Tuesday evenings.

Here's the information on the next event.

Tuesday, February 15, 2011

Event Hosted by Lemon Grass

6-8 pm

101 Plaza Real South E

(Royal Palm Place)

Boca Raton, FL

$10 for Paws Members, $20 for Guests, and $35 to join and attend. This includes one free drink and light appetizers.

 

The events are held outdoors weather permitting. In that case, your well-behaved pet (under 50 lbs) is welcome to come along and keep you in line. :-)

There will be items to be raffled off including these 2 beauties from FeatherHeart, one on a stretch headband and one on a small alligator clip. One for you, one for your pet. And, guess what? They're interchangeable! It's a Win-Win!

Come by and join us for all the fun! Arf!

FeatherHeart in NYC!

It's been a few days since FeatherHeart landed in the city that never sleeps. It's been great talking to Julie at BrowNY, Int'l  http://www.brownyintl.com/ about the synergy between us!

All we need now is some cooperation from Mother Nature in the way of milder weather. BrowNY will hold a special event in early February to bring those shoppers into the store and given the chance, I know they will fall in LOVE with FeatherHeart!

Some of the pieces at BrowNY are very affordable, including a line of stretch bands, ranging in price from $22 to $30. The "doubles" are in blue, green and white so far, but, plans are for red and black as well. The headbands can be worn conventionally in your head - you can either show the band or hide it under your hair - or, you can wear them on a hat and use them as the hat band.

Then, there's this beauty! This steampunk piece has double-duty hardware on the back, so it can be worn in your hair or pinned to your clothes or hat.

Let's hope for warmer weather and hot sales!

FeatherHeart Announces Love Me. Love My Dog brand

We love our dogs! I know I love my pooch Joey. As I socialized with other dog owners (we prefer "parents"), I saw I was not the only one who enjoyed caring for and sometimes indulging my charge. At the suggestion of one of my fellow pet parents, I started making smaller, lighter versions of my feather accessories for pets.

I wanted to maintain the high quality of the pieces I made for people and make them ultra comfy and easy to wear for the obvious reasons. Some pets were virtual fashion plates! It was so much fun making these pieces, and seeing how much the pets enjoyed all the attention!

When I realized the parents were not to be left behind, I was struck by an idea: To make companion pieces for both parent and pooch. And so, Love Me. Love My Dog was born.

As pets become an integral part in our lives, they are happily included in our special occasions.
Now a welcome member of your wedding party, your pet should dress accordingly. The Love Me. Love My Dog line includes companion accessories that are a reflection of the bride's headpiece. Whether a male or female, your pet will be a reflection of your good taste as you embark on your new life.
