Cookie is just one of about 25 rescue doggies currently living at Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue in Mukwonago, WI while waiting for their "forever" home.  I have been a volunteer at the rescue for the past two years. To learn more about this privately run, non-profit organization visit the link below:

BICHON AND LITTLE BUDDIES RESCUE

It is my goal to raise whatever money I can through the sale of my DZFANTASY fiber art and fantasy jewelry to help these little creatures be properly taken care of until they can find their forever homes.  Towards this goal, I am donating 100% of any sales made either through my DZFANTASY shop on ARTFIRE (http://dzfantasy.artfire.com), ETSY (http://dzfantasy.etsy.com) or through the Blue Heron Artisan Gallery in Port Washington, WI (http://blueheronport.com/donna-zeigler.html)

Each month I will be posting what has been sold and funds donated to the rescue, (hopefully, each month there will something to share) here on my DZFANTASY blog.  I feel fortunate and blessed to be able to do this at this time in my life.  The love and need of these four-legged creatures is more than compensation.

I currently have numerous Swarovski crystal earrings for sale in my shop on ARTFIRE, at the low price of $8.00 and $10.00, so be sure to stop by for a visit.  I also have a wide variety of fiber sculptures, handknit fiber jewelry and earrings in the Blue Heron Artisan Gallery in Port Washington, WI, so if you live in the area be sure to stop by for a visit.  It is a great gallery and has a lot of nice art there for purchase.

Below are several photos of some of the earrings available in my ARTFIRE shop at the present:

Fiber and Crystals....make for great fantasy earrings!

Fantasy Earrings -Handknit bead with Swarovski crystals

I just finished this pair of earrings, which took me way longer than I anticipated!!  When knitting the bead or knit accent, such as in this pair of earrings, the trick is getting both earrings to match as close as possible in size and design. I guess I like the challenge! 

Each earring has Swarovski crystals as part of their design, and most of them will have a matching Fairy Face Pin/Handknit Necklace set, which can be purchased.  For a period of time, I will be giving a $5.00 discount on any pair of earrings, when purchased with the matching necklace.

FANTASY EARRINGS

Below are several several more of my earring designs.  I'd love to hear some comments as to what people think of these designs...good, bad, ugly!  Would you wear them, and if not, why.  Feel free to leave your comments. 

Handknit Ribbon Yarn Beads and Swarovski Crystals

This is the Italian yarn used in this pair of earrings.

Handknit beads using two different Italian yarns.

They really sparkly and shine!

Fairy Jewels Earrings

Rainbow colored ribbon yarn used for the beads.

These are just a few of the ideas I've had so far!  I'm looking forward to creating more with all the delightful yarns that I have.
