Charleston Themed Dog Tshirts

So, Sometimes all the stars align just right and my creative juices start to flow!
Today, was one of those days! I love days like today and thank goodness for notepads when you're away from the computer!!

Today I had several neat ideas for new phrases and themes, but I'm only going to share one with you right now.
--As you know, I'll be sitting out at the evening market this spring to catch the tourists and introduce them to Furry Twang. I was thinking that I need some really cute phrases to make the dog t-shirts more of a Charleston souveneir type thing.
Here are the catchy phrases I came up and the version of 'Rainbow Row' that I created.
Check them out......
(ps..not pictured phrases are: Chucktown Pooch and Folly Rocks)

Dog Collar FLAIR

With each new year comes a new idea right?

Last year it was the addition of collars, doodles, and new phrases, and this year, it's DOG COLLAR FLAIR ADD ONS!

I am super excited about these! They are truly unique and so doggone cute!

Dog Collar Flair add-ons are made using felt and foam cut-outs. They are applied to the collars using velcro and are easily removable or swapped out for new flair.

Take your dog to that birthday party, Valentine's day social, dog park, pet event, or just around the block in STYLE Y'ALL!

It's almost like shoes for a human. You have a pair of jeans you love like a dog has a collar they love. You can dress up those jeans and make them look different everytime you wear them with the shoes you choose to pair them with. It's sort of the same concept with these cute flair add-ons! You can add some pizzazz, some spunk, some personality to that everyday collar with each flair add-on you choose!!

Each piece of Flair is $3 each and can only be applied to one of our collars with the velcro feature.

Flair for small collars can be used on any sized collar, but the larger flair may be too large for the small collars.

I've got lots of neat ideas for the flair, but for now, here is an etsy listing with what's available now: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=39434014

So, go have fun, dress up your pooch, and have fun with FLAIR!

Now to the boring stuff:

Velcro Flair Collar Add-ons make a cute statement, but should only be left on the collar when the pet is under supervision, as they can become a choking hazard if swallowed. Always remember to remove the 'flair' when your pet is left unattended.

AND

As always, collars should only be used for their intended purpose and replaced as needed.

Happy Customers

From time to time, I'll get very sweet emails from some customers who loved their items so much that they sent me a note about it, or devoted a whole blog post to it! They'll make the website as soon as I make a testimonial section so until then, here they are:

--Hello,I adore the collars we got from you & wrote up a little blog post about them-http://www.vegandogslife.com/2010/01/furry-twang.html Thanks for the great product and wonderful service! Molly :)

--Just wanted to write to tell you I received the collar and just love it! Red has
been sporting it ever since it arrived and I was able to get some cute pictures of
him wearing it and thought I would share. I did a post on my blog about it, and just wanted to say thank you! It is wonderfully made and I'm defintely seeing some more Furry Twang gear in Red's future :)

Happy New Year

Well, here we are again, the end of another year! I don't know about you, but I can't believe how fast 2009 flew by!

2009 was such an amazing year for Furry Twang. I never thought I'd snag so many wholesale accounts, certainly didn't expect to get a magazine mention, and had no idea I'd have so much fun at events.

Furry Twang grew in many ways this year. It all started with an idea and dog! We've gone from printing on just dog t-shirts to now printing on collars, bandanas, totes, & tanks. The phrase list went from a handful to a slew of new ones! We've popped up on blogs, in magazines, and now I'm even doing $10 ribbon collars!

My hopes are set high for 2010. I have no idea where it will all go next year, but I'm preparing for anything that comes my way!

Stay tuned for the event schedule for 2010. We'll be going here, there, and everywhere! We may become regulars at the Charleston City Market 2 weekends a month (Fri./Sat. evenings).

I hope you'll tag along and follow the fun on this blog and my twitter page as we tackle 2010.

Let the fun begin!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Well I sure am up early on this lovely Thanksgiving! Cooper is surrounded by his uncle Jake(yorkie), cousins Sonny(chihuahua) and Walsh(english bulldog), grandma and grandpa hunter, and aunt and uncle stacey! He woke me up at 5am, but I managed to keep him asleep until 6!
Anywho, during that 5-6am hour, I got this great idea to do something good today!

Today, I'll be donating 10% of all sales to the lowcountry food bank in Charleston, SC!! So many of us get to feast on so many delicious foods, but there are many who don't get that chance. The lowcountry food bank helps those unfortunate folks, who without them, may not have a Thanksgiving or any food at all! I thought today is the perfect day to help out such a great organization and feed the hungry!
Now you can help too just by shopping!
Shop either www.furrytwang.com or www.furrytwang.etsy.com

In addition to that, today only, dog collars are only $13 in my etsy shop!! Discount will be given as a refund once transaction is complete. www.FurryTwang.etsy.com

In other news....
Furry Twang was picked up by another pet store! I'm pleased to say Furry Twang items will soon be sold at Soggy Paws in Rock Hill, SC (just a hop, skip, and a jump from where I'm from!!)!! Their grand opening will be Saturday, Dec. 5th. Be sure to check them out if you're in the area and snag some cute Furry Twang gear for your pet!

We'll also be setting up a booth at the Mount Pleasant Holiday Market on Saturday, Dec. 12th! Come out and see us! I'll have some pretty neat gift packs already put together to give your furry pal this Christmas!
