I love our furry companions so much, I couldn't help but make a collection just for them! Back in February, I introduced Mally, my favorite four legged friend, modeling some of the LPDstudios Pet Collection pieces on the blog. 

Now I'd like to give you a closer look into how I make my custom dog tags for each one of my customers.

I recently received an order for a Custom Brass Dog Tag from a couple who adopted a shelter dog in NH. They named her "Lucy" and wanted to give her a special "forever home" gift. Watch the video to see how I made Lucy's personalized gift: 

And here is Lucy! My clients sent me this adorable picture, and I just had to share. She looks so happy in her new doggie name tag!

Color me happy! Today's style board features a palette for those who want color from head to toe.

Starting with the shoes, these funky, yet really comfortable looking, wedges are from Anthropologie. They are a beautiful shade of sunshine yellow that looks so nice with the natural raffia wrapped sole.

The Persimmon Leather Handbag with Floral Motif is an LPDstudios original made of 100% Italian leather. The handbag has a modern square shape with pinked edges and a stag horn closure. The vibrant orange color of the leather gives this classic handbag a spunky twist.

"Tying" everything together is this beautiful brushstroke print, tie-waist dress. I love the modern, geometric print and the colorful palette it's in. It brings the persimmon orange of the handbag and sunshine yellow of the suede shoes to life!

I don't know what it is, but I really like to dive into producing work in batches. I will create new designs and produce earrings for a while, then I might move onto pet gifts or other accessories. Right now I am finding so many inspiring leather and nubuck hides, I am on a roll making handbags!

My newest piece is the Lipstick Pink Nubuck Leather Purse with Porcupines. It's made of nubuck leather, which is a top grain cattle leather that has been sanded or buffed to give the leather a slight nap and texture to the surface. I love the way the velvety appearance of the nubuck works with the vibrant, lipstick pink color of the dyed hide.

But don't be fooled, not everything pink is sugary sweet. My hand appliqued porcupine characters pack a punch of prickly attitude.

With signature details like the pinked edges, stag horn closure, inner pockets, and contrast stitching, this handbag is a unique blend of function and distinct design. Perfect for someone who wants to make a colorful statement.

Handmade with attention to detail, the Overdyed Purple Plum Brindle Fur Leather Tote with Tassels is a great everyday handbag with a one of a kind look. It has special design detailing, including hand cut tassels, pinked edges, contrast cording and a stag horn closure. But my favorite part is the hide, which is made of soft, genuine Italian leather. The hide has been saturated and overdyed in a rich plum color to create an overall brindled effect.

For today's style board, I wanted to create an everyday look that would let the personality of this unique tote shine. I chose a classic white shirt and simple jeans, paired with slip on suede mules and gold hoop earrings. The slouchy leather jacket is the finishing touch to give the outfit a little edginess.
