Our Fair Trade Jewelry. We Smile Big When Our Clients Share our Designs on Social!

We smile big at Dunitz & Company when our retailers share pics of our fair trade jewelry. I just scoured through Facebook to find some of the shots that have been posted in the last several months.  There  are many more shared on Instagram. I confess, I can "save" them easily on Facebook. On Instagram, you can't right click and save. Here's a shout out to some of our clients with links to their websites. If you near any of these stores, go check them out. And - thank you for being our customer. We appreciate our stores and the shoppers that visit them.

More Portrait Drawings & Fair Trade Jewelry

It dawned on me it's been over a year since I share some of my drawings and how I also use them for Dunitz & Company social. Here are some of my drawings from 2023 with Dunitz fair trade jewelry added. Aah, the joys of Photoshop. Perhaps if you follow us on Instagram or Facebook, you've seen some of them. As I went through my files to share these images here, I am reminded how much I've been drawing. It really feeds my soul. In no particular order...

OMG - Even I'm amazed at the volume of drawing I've created. And I've actually edited for the purpose of this blog post.

I like posting my drawings with jewelry for Dunitz & Company social. But, just today, I asked myself what's next? I'm thinking my next series of drawing will focus on people head to toe. Not necessarily nudes, which I think is what typically comes to mind. Perhaps I'll draw women in fashionable outfits. Then I can suggest what Dunitz designs they should be paired with. Stay tuned. Will you? -ND
