Handmade Chihuahua Items!

Last night, I was poking around my favorite site, Etsy. For those of you not familiar with Etsy, it's a site for independent artists and crafters to sell their work. It's an incredible place to find unique, one-of-a-kind items and support artists.

Well, on a whim, I decided to enter "chihuahua" into the search bar, and found TONS of amazing items. I want so many of them it's ridiculous! So, I decided to share a few of my top favs:

This incredibly detailed chihuahua bead was handcrafted by Nanjo Dogs. I've admired her work via her blog for a long time. She does all kinds of great creature art, including a lot of different dog breeds. You can read her blog here.

Another blogger and Etsy-er is Kay's K9's. She makes the most amazing needle felted sculptures of dogs. Her custom pieces are incredible, and you can see a lot of them on her blog here.

This gorgeous necklace is from Caja Jewelry, and she does them in several different breeds.I just love how simple and elegant the silhouette is.

This pendant from Wild Wild Things is just a tiny sample of all of the wonderful things Dottie has in her shop. She does fantastic art featuring a wide variety of dog breeds, which you can have turned into a pendant or a magnet, or as an art print. She also does custom work. I think everything in her shop is killer.

This grey fleece sweatshirt from No More Nekkid Dogs (great name) features a cute little embroidered dog and the words "This is my other child, dressed in Fur". I'm going to have to get one for my doggies. The lovely Jolene has even offered 10% off any item in her shop to anyone who mentions my blog :)

This stained glass work comes from Trickett Glass and is stunning. I hope I can afford this piece someday soon.

As I said, these are only a few of the great Chihuahua art featured on Etsy. Be sure to go over and check it out for yourself!
