I always try to get an early start on my Christmas ornaments so here is one that I now have in my shop. It's a Brussels Griffon Christmas! 
Brussels Griffon Christmas Ornament
This Brussels Griffon is holding her very own ornament to put on the Christmas tree. She can't wait until the tree goes up so she can place her ornament in a very special spot right on one of the front branches. The last photo is my pup -- she just popped in to wish you a Merry Christmas and a wonderful holiday season. Happy Holidays!
The Brussels Griffon is holding a large green crystal ornament. She has a sprig of holly at her ear and sits on a red base in a silver cameo setting. The ornament hangs from green satin cord.
Hand-sculpted with polymer clay.
Approximate size of the ornament is: 2-1/4" long (with satin cord 4-1/4" long) x 1-1/2" wide.

Autumn Windsurfing Bug
These little Juicy Bugs™ from Dream A Little are adorable! So tiny and so precious. They are truly amazing in every way, not only are they precious and oh so tiny but the attention to detail is amazing! Like the Autumn Windsurfing Bug -- he's even got a little leaf and straps for his feet. I guarantee if you take a look in her shop, you'll fall in love with these wee ones -- keep a look out for the bed bug -- now that's one bed bug I'd love to have by my bed every night :) You can see many more of these adorable creations at her website.

Gotcha
I love these bright, whimsical art prints by Gudonya. The colors are amazing and the critters, well who doesn't love the critters. This kitty print is especially cute -- this kitty has caught himself a mouse -- he's such a good little hunter, you just might want to bring him home to do some hunting around your house.
Maltese Treat Jar
This little Maltese is sitting on top of her very own treat jar. She can't wait until it gets filled up with Scooby snacks! The jar can be filled with small dog treats or any other small objects.
The glass 13 ounce jar is topped with a hand-sculpted Maltese with pink bows in her hair, hugging a large pink bone. The front of the jar has a large white bone cutout with pink hearts stamped with dog bones, paws and 'woof'. The neck of the jar has pink ribbon tied in a bow centered with a heart charm.
Size is:
13 ounce jar which stands approximately 7" tall.
If you have ever had a family member who needs to be treated for addiction, you know how devastating it can be. I grew up with an alcoholic father who had this problem all of his life a and I would have loved it if he would have been able to beat his addiction. Unfortunately, he never could and died at an early age from complications stemming from his addiction. I do believe addiction runs in the family because my brother also had a problem with addiction, alcohol, pills and cigarettes and he also died, at an even earlier age than my dad, 49 years old to be exact, of diseases stemming from his addiction. He had cirrhosis of the liver and cancer and even had to have his voice box removed. I wish we would have done more to intervene and get him the help he needed. I mean we tried, but he just would not listen no matter how much we tried to get him to go into treatment. So if you have a loved one, do what you can to intervene, step in if you have to, get them into a rehab center to get the treatment that they need and deserve, you could be saving a life. I no longer have my dad or my brother because of their addictions so it's too late for our family, but it could save someone in yours!
