Architecture for Dogs – that you can make for free

September 21, 2014 by Vikram Goyal

dogs-architecture

Architect designed furniture may seem like vanity to some, but looking at these clever ideas, with free downloadable blueprints, you would be silly not to indulge your favorite 4 legged friend a little.

These ideas are varied, and very dog breed specific. For example, the main picture above shows a hammock styled furniture for a Jack Russel, based on a Jack Russel’s traits (the hammock base is the owners shirt).

Get all these ideas here: Architecture for Dogs.

Owning a dog can be very expensive and not only does making your own dog beds, coats and toys seem like fun, it is also a great way to save money on pet supplies too.  One of our puppy’s favorite homemade dog toy is a soda bottle ½ filled with rice. It is noisy, it flips and spins and has a spout for him to grab.

Free Poinsettia Embroidery Design Review

If you’re putting together Christmas sewing projects, this free Poinsettia embroidery design from Ann The Gran is a really handy one to save. It’s a machine embroidery design from Contributor, sized at 3.64″ x 3.67″, with 14,949 stitches, and it fits a 4″ x 4″ hoop. It’s also offered in a wide range of formats including ART, DST, EXP, HUS, JEF, PCS, PEC, PES, SEW, VIP, and XXX.

What I like about this one is that it feels classic and easy to use. A poinsettia always works at Christmas, and because this design is fairly compact, it would be lovely on napkins, tea towels, gift bags, table runners, or even the corner of a festive cushion. It has enough detail to look pretty, but it’s still small enough to be practical. That last bit is my take based on the listed size and the preview image on the page.

It’s one of those good stash-building freebies. Not huge, not fussy, and very easy to picture on all sorts of holiday projects. If you like collecting free Christmas embroidery designs, this one is definitely worth downloading. Ann The Gran also tags it with keywords like Xmas, Flower, and Floral embroidery designs, which fits the style nicely.
