Hello! My name is Kathleen, and I am the sole owner, collar maker, and wreath designer behind Trendy Hounds and Trendy KRafts, LLC.

I am a breast cancer survivor (since December 2014), wife, mom, grandmom, dog lover, collar maker, and wreath designer. My goal is simple: to help keep your pup and home stylish, welcoming, and trendy.

My love for dogs has always been a huge part of my life and serves as my greatest inspiration. Growing up, our family always had dogs, and over the years we've shared our home with a variety of breeds, including a Rat Terrier mix, Pekingese, several rescue dogs, three retired racing Greyhounds, a Bullmastiff, a Cane Corso, and a retired Treeing Walker Coonhound. Today, our two Great Danes continue to keep life interesting and full of love.

My journey into making dog collars began in 2005 after we adopted our first retired racing Greyhound. While searching for martingale collars, I found that many were expensive and didn't hold up well to everyday use. Wanting something durable, stylish, and affordable, I decided to learn how to make my own. What started as a solution for my own dogs quickly grew into a passion for creating quality handmade collars for dogs everywhere.

My creative journey eventually expanded to wreath making as well. I discovered a love for designing unique wreaths that bring warmth, personality, and charm to a home's entryway. Today, through Trendy Hounds and Trendy KRafts, I combine my passion for pets and home decor to create handcrafted products that are both beautiful and functional.

Your satisfaction is important to me. If you have any questions, concerns, or special requests, please don't hesitate to contact me. I truly appreciate your support of my small businesses and the opportunity to create something special for you, your home, and your beloved pets.
