Please…

…let me help you hold up your pants.

RUN FREE, STAY WILD.

Words to live by.
Words to die by.
A belt buckle for the strong of will and the fleet of foot.

Built entirely from scratch, sterling silver and amethyst — no prefabricated ANYTHING here!!!
One belt buckle ready to be appraised by well manicured eyebrows
and prepared to thump a foot or two when danger is near!
Breathe deep that wild wind,
may you run and not grow weary,
may the height and breadth of your ears collect courage like rain,
may you know the strength and power of your purple heart!
For buckaroo babes.
For robust hearts, keen souls and daring spirits.
Find it in the Etsy shop , for your consideration, this week!

    PS I love this buckle. Really love. Despite the fact that it is an inanimate object. There's a huge chunk of me sandwiched between those marvelous jackrabbits….I accept your swoon wholeheartedly. Because I feel the same way each time I hold this thing in my hands.

  7. Wow! Amazing piece. I'm seeing it before I've had my coffee and it just smacked me awake.

    I love this Jillian!

    this buckle is downright EXCEPTIONAL… I can't believe you made this with your own two {busy, skilled} hands & a full heart. what a treasure.

    oh. wow.

  9. Seriously, I NEED that buckle! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!

    辛苦了!η₯δ½ ζ„ˆδΎ†ζ„ˆε₯½οΌ..................................................

  11. oh my…seriously jsl, how do you do this?! that is one hefty piece of art there. so beautiful. well done lady friend, well done πŸ˜‰

  12. Holy moley – this is the most fabulous thing I have ever seen. I am in love with it and also the wording you wrote to accompany it. I'm a competitive long distance runner who sometimes needs to remind myself why I run: to stay wild and free in this big urban home of mine. (I live in crazy, crowded Chicago!)

  13. MrsLittleJeans says

    Madame, where do you find bunnies with amethyst butts, they are so precious?

  14. Absolutely beautiful.
    I have a collection of vintage belt buckles, my favourite being a 1977 Spiderman…This is so much more more super than old super heros…It could be a whole new type of super hero. Half Human Half Bird πŸ˜‰ perhaps?…

    GOSH!

    Thanks for all the buckle love my dear, dear ladies! Amethyst-butted-wabbits are, to be entirely honest and somewhat vulnerable with you, found only at The Gables. There's something in the Idaho dirt that causes young jackrabbits to grow glowing purple amethyst stone clusters on their fluffy buns. It has flabbergasted scientists, worldwide and beguiled me to the third degree…

    I'm glad you like them.

    Wait until you see the bison.

  16. Oh, jackrabbits! One of the coolest things about the city of Edmonton is our "infestation" of jacks – they are everywhere! It's kind of nice to have a bit of nature within the city. During our last big snow storm a couple of weeks ago, a huge jackrabbit took refuge on, not under, our deck for about 24 hours. The cats were a little stressed – they probably thought it was the strangest-looking cat ever!

  17. See-it is worth you leaving us-look what you come home and make! Glad yur home for a bit any ways! love love love

  18. indigorhino says

    Truly a "hare" raising design…

  19. Buckle love for sure. I LOVE the jackrabbits! I could tell you a touching jackrabbit story, but you'd cry…

    Congrats on the birth of your nephew!

  20. Oh my goodness, those photos need to be accompanied by an earthshaking drumroll, or a series of thunderclaps from very heights of Mt. Olympus!!

  21. L O V E !!

    Uh oh, did you say bison? Can't wait to see THAT! I'm still hoping for one of the "roam free" bison bracelets to make an appearance in your shop again…

    xo

  22. The Noisy Plume: says

    Yep.
    Ladies.
    Dear ladies.
    I just finished a bison buckle……yeesh. I'm a gonna have difficulties letting go of BOTH these designs!

  23. you said fluffy buns.
    this is not okay.

    but it made me laugh
    my head off anyway.

    darn you.

  24. Justine Urbikas says

    oh. my. god.

    this is….

    wow.

    I should say that my nic name for the last ohh… 7 years has been 'thekillerbunny' and I happen to collect belt buckles.

    too perfect!
