Ike Designs Open Studios

 Whew! Ike Designs Open Studios is over!  The Morgan Fine Arts Building in Brooklyn (which houses Ike Designs by Dori Eisenhauer) opened its doors so I had a chance to take in visitors to my studio, and I also had a chance to meet the other artists in the building!  Tribble visited, too, and got a new squeaky toy from artist Ed Heck.  She was also nice enough to pee on the floor of my studio.  I love my pomeranian.  The studios were mapped out with "feet" on the floor to guide visitors to the open studios - Tribble and I followed them right to my studio only to discover I left my keys at home!  Thank goodness the Morgan Fine Arts Building owner let me in - and my room mate Lindsay delivered my keys to me when she visited.  I will post pics of the studio for those of you who could not visit!  Right now, I'm gearing up for May's special, and pondering what I can make for all the moms out there who are preparing to celebrate Mother's Day!  Don't forget to honor your mom and all the important women in your life! 

Rainy Day

Well, it was grey, and it rained and thundered all day today...and Tribble napped and dreamt of colorful gemstone necklaces.  We did not make it to Ike Designs Studio today due to illness (mine), but Tribble joined me in the studio on Saturday!  She had great fun perusing the floor for small bits of metal and gemstone beads, much to my chagrin, and took a nap in her kennel while I worked on some new ring designs.  I hope to unveil these new rings this summer - nice organic shapes to grace your fingers!  I will add gems to some of them.  Stay tuned for the summertime collection...

MY NEW DOG, TRIBBLE!

Hi Friends of Ike!
For those of you who aren't near me in NYC, I would like to introduce my new Pomeranian, Tribble! A bit of Ike Designs Trivia - my jewelry line is NOT named for me - as in IKE of Eisenhauer, but for my first pomeranian, a lovable 5-pound canine named Ike! Tribble is the latest in my history of pomeranians, and was of great help as I photographed my latest pieces for sale at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5559110 She herself boasts a faux leather, white, pearlized collar complete with gems of pink and sparkling CZ. But she is no wimpy lap dog - she runs up four flights of stairs in my Brooklyn 4th floor walkup faster than I can. If only I could get her to carry my groceries. Tribble has not been to my studio yet, but I think I will break her in tomorrow to see how she likes it. There is a park nearby, so she will have someplace to run and meet new dogs and people. There is no trouble with Tribble!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blessings,
Dori and Tribble

Welcome

HI Friends of Ike!  So glad you could stop by!  This day finds me in a contemplative mood and happy to introduce the Lotus Flower Pendant as my April Sale Special!  

You can buy it online for $36 during April at http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23101557

The Lotus is one of my favorite symbols.  It is a lovely flower which grows from a murky pond bottom, out of the darkness of the depths of the water, reaching towards light and blossoming on the surface.  

Take a moment to peruse the fleur of the month - I really love this little pendant and will offer it in gold variations and as earrings next month.  

Blessings,

Dori
