You know I regularly recommend the jewelry and art of my friend Chris (
sihaya09), right? This is because her work is gorgeous, creative, eclectic, balanced, and the product of one of the more focused and imaginative artists I know. She's an amazing person, who strives to develop new skills, new techniques, and excels at pretty much anything she puts her mind to. She's also a funny, intelligent, responsible, and overall awesome person.
She's also the human to a very sick cat. Olive, aka beaners, Olive-bean, and many other names, is only a year and a half old and she is showing some worrisome neurological symptoms. Chris and her husband are trying to get her the medical help she needs, including diagnostic tests, which don't run cheap. There's more information
here. I've met Olive and their other cats many times, and you could not ask to have cats more loved and cherished.
Olive is a rescue kitty and Chris and husband have done so much to give her a safe, loving, and healthy environment, but they need help to keep Olive going. Chris is hoping to sell enough pieces to raise the funds for the exams and the treatment.
So if you've looked at her shop before and liked it, go look again. If you've never looked, go look for the first time. She has a lot of beautiful pieces, a great collection of Halloween goodies, Autumn wonders, steampunk, vintage art nouveau inspired, and whimsical faerie jewelry.
Her shop is
here. Go buy some lovely jewelry and help a lovely human and her precious cat. There's no downside to this.
