Gwinnett Environmental Center

Back in early April, I took a trip with a few of my fellow Trail Dames photography lovers to the Gwinnett Environmental & Heritage Center. The Environmental Center provides a hands on learning experience in natural resource conservation. You will also  find  Cherokee and Creek American exhibits that display Indian culture. All of this is a wonderful learning experience and for photographer lovers, it is also a goldmine for nature and architectural photography!

The Gwinnett Environmental & Heritage Center is a great resource for photographers. There is a small fee to enter the building but you can walk the grounds for free! I have a new lens I need practice with and I will be making a trip back there for sure!

Thanks Trail Dames for another great adventure!

It’s all good. ~ Donna

 

Stylish Dog ID Tag

Posted in Around the House on 04/19/2012 08:04 am by Donna

Life with our pup Maggie is moving right along and she is a sweet pup who has settled into our home routine. We have made many trips to the pet store picking up chew toys and treats. Maggie needed a Pet ID tag and as I looked at what the pet store had available, I did not see many that were stylish and cute. Now, most folks wouldn’t care about stylish or cute but I was looking for something a bit more colorful than the ordinary dog bone, or heart shaped tag. I knew that I would find what I was looking for by shopping at Etsy. For those of you that have not heard of Etsy, it’s a great e-commerce website that focuses on handmade items. You can find vintage items, art work and craft supplies. I support small businesses and value hand craftmanship and that is what is Etsy is all about.

I did  a quick search on the site and found California Kitties. They sell custom pet tags meant for cats and small breed dogs. Their items are modern, stylish and the prices are terrific.

I chose the bright color round ID. It has room on front for Maggie’s name and my phone number. It is 100% waterproof and it measures one inch in diameter.

I love it! Just what I was looking for. A cute, stylish Pet ID tag for a sweet, cute pup. California Kitties is the site and if you are looking for larger dog tags, take a look at California Mutts.

It’s all good. ~ Donna
