Hello friends! We are nearing the end of our year long sabbatical (June 1st 2026), and I need to announce that after 40 years of ceramics we are not returning with our same product. Our ceramic dog magnets/pins were incredibly popular, but kept us in constant production --and we did not believe in continually raising our prices to "what the market would bear", as that isn't our philosophy and we also had a family friendly product we wanted to keep within reach of people of all incomes. But shall I say we got burned out? Yes--. and we considered retiring altogether. But we will be back with mixed media block prints and patches--some examples in this photo. (Cool no war dog patches pictured soon)
In the last few years at the Pike Place Market we were especially popular for selling one of a kind mixed breed dogs. What we have left of those we are not selling, but as long as we have "regular' breed stock left you can still purchase those online from us for $18 each See our website Haleyannedogpins.com and click on thumbnail for colors. Then write to us to inquire if we have any left. We are better stocked in magnets than in pins, as they were more frequently asked for in later years, but we also have many pins left. Again, check out the website and inquire at [email protected]
Thanks much! We always had kind customers, who loved their companion animals, and we experienced much appreciation. We always believed that our interactions with the people who came to our table was more important than a sale. But we also appreciated all of the appreciation. Haley will be present more than will Leanne at the Market in coming days. It is a wonderful community and we always believe in supporting our fellow artists. What a wonderful place to have made our living all of these years. We will be posting pictures of past work soon. Vintage Haleyanne. ☺️ More soon.
