Pooch-Pourri

05/04/2024

Today is grand-reopening day for The Shoppes off Trade, which now has new owners. The Pouch-Pourri display is overflowing with gifts for pups and the people who love them. Does your mom have a pampered pet? We have lots of things that would make a great gift for her (and her pooch) on Mother’s Day.

The Shoppes off Trade features handmade items from dozens of artisans. Avoid the raindrops and stop into see what treasures you can find.

Doggie stocking stuffer idea #4: delicious 3-ingredient dog treats. These treats are a hit with any of the canines that have tasted them. (One very smart little dog named Einstein--naturally--ate one right down and came back to ask for another.) Both varieties contain peanut butter and oatmeal. The third ingredient in one is pumpkin. The third ingredient in the other is banana.

These are single 4-inch bones or small packages of smaller bones or tiny tidbits suitable for training treats. Single bones are $2. Multi-treat packages are $2.50.

Just a reminder to come and enjoy a pancake breakfast, do some Christmas shopping, and help the senior class of Crawford Christian Academy. Breakfast starts at 8:00. The Craft Fair runs from 9:00-2:00. Stop by and find some dog themed items for you and your favorite pooch. A portion of each craft item sold goes to the senior class.

"Handcrafted goods for delighted dogs and their human friends."That's what Pooch-Pourri is all about. Today's samples of items for the Makers' Market at Bob Jones University on October 7 focus on those human friends. Each pair of earrings includes something that has been recycled--from aluminum cans for the metal beads and cut outs, to paper beads created from colorful pages. And, of course, every pair has a dog theme. Stop by our table and check these out on October 7 at the Makers' Market.

While Sandy has been making t-shirt yarn and creating dog toys for the Makers' Market at Bob Jones University on October 7, I have been putting my sewing machine to work and creating two styles of dog bandanas. Both are double-sided. The over-the collar style comes in sizes XS, S, M, and L-XL. The snap-on type comes in sizes XS, S. M, LG, and XL. My friendly bear has a neck measurement of 15 1/2" (very important to know when purchasing bandanas) and is wearing a Small over-the-collar bandana in the first photos and a size Medium snap-on type in the next two. We hope to see lots of dog lovers at BJU.

Hello, Facebook friends! Cindy and I want you to know about our new venture. We're launching a line of handcrafted goods that will, we hope, delight both you and your pooch. For your dog, we offer treat pouches, bandanas, toys, handmade soap, paw balm and bath bombs. For you, devoted dog friend, we have a line of jewelry--including earrings and bracelets--and Christmas ornaments. Our signature gift is a handmade clothesline basket filled with select items and gift wrapped ready to be presented to your favorite dog or a special dog lover.

Many of our products are made from repurposed items; we're trying to be easy on the environment while we help you pamper your pet.

All of our personal care items are made with natural ingredients such as honey, beeswax, and goat milk. You won't find artificial ingredients, colors, or preservatives in any of them.

Right now, our supplies are limited. We're just nicely getting started, but we wanted you all to be the first to know.

(Thanks, Felicia Walker and Lucas Walker for setting up the page.)
