Pumpkin Spice Mini-Muffins for Puppies
These wonderful little muffins are an extra special treat for your extra special pup! You may even want to sneak one yourself!
Made with pumpkin, sweetened with honey and applesauce and topped with the wonderful aromatic hint of cinnamon, these muffins are sure to be a hit!
Two quick little stories:
I baked these just before my family came over for dinner. They came in the kitchen and were thrilled that we were having pumpkin muffins for dessert! I must have given them a bit of a confused look…their shoulders slouched, and pretty much at the same time said: “they’re for the dog, aren’t they?!” I love it. I had made them jello for dessert and they were not pleased, so we all had muffins.
24 hours after having put the muffins in the refrigerator, Velvet (my beagle) is, at this very minute, sitting in the kitchen looking longingly up at the stovetop where the muffins had been cooling last night. She’s so pitiful. Gotta love her.
If you’re still reading 
this listing is for 12 mini-muffins, but for just $2.00 more, you can get 24. Just convo me and I’ll send a revised invoice within 24 hours via paypal.
These come in a cute little candy corn gift bag. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate upon receipt.
100% of the sale proceeds will be donated to Etsy for Charity (EFC) Charity of the Month.
Border is 8 X 10 and holds a 4 x 6 photo.
Display your favorite fall photo in this bright border.
Comes with a frame.

Iolite Sterling Silver Bracelet
Notes from the artist :
Iolite is a blue violet stone. It is mined in India mostly. The darker the color the better the stone. I hand picked these stones and turned them into a beautiful bracelet.
The Iolite gems are approx. 6mm square and the Sterling Silver chain is approx. 17 x 10mm. The length of the bracelets is about 9 1/2 inches. The clasp allows the bracelet to be worn smaller or larger.
At the end of the bracelet near the clasp is a Tourmalinated Quartz bead. Tourmalinated Quartz is a milky white quartz with striking black needle-like inclusions (rutiles) of black tourmaline.
My jewelry and bath & body products are always VEGAN. I never use any animal by-products such as leather, bone, shell, feathers, silk or pearls etc.
I donate 10% of my sales to the Animal Place in Vacaville, CA. They are a wonderful organization that rescues farm animals from abuse and neglect. www.animalplace.org

Green quartz nd burgundy pearls with lavastone pendant
Notes from the artist :
This is a necklace designated for donation- 100% will go to charity.
These green quartz (8mm rounds)are so royal and look great with the shiny burgundy pearl drops in this necklace.
The pendant is lavastone, which is what it sounds like, a volcanic stone. It’s porous surface makes for an interesting look in this necklace. The necklace also use 4mm hematite rounds and black faceted crystal rondelles which compliment the lavastone pendant. The stone and pearls are genuine.
Thanks for looking.

Mission Bracelet
It was divine inspiration that led me to create this mission bracelet several years ago. I wanted a way to help a friend raise funds for her upcoming mission trip, and using beads from around the world along with the Matt. 28:19 scripture “Go and make disciples of all nations…:” just seemed fitting. Originally called a “Becky bracelet” (after my friend), they were a great success at my church, and helped raise quite a bit of money. Several years later, Becky is back in the US, and now my husband has left his high-tech job to devote himself full-time to his own mission: to love, serve and care for Austin’s homeless youth. Although he has found his calling right here at home, Terry has always had a heart for mission, and has participated in missions in Africa, Cuba, and Mexico. It is with great joy that I am once again making mission bracelets, and it thrills me to be able to use my own gift of creativity to further His work.
