Helping Your Creativity Flow As An Artist

What's the answer to helping your creativity flow if you're a jewelry artist, a seamstress, into mixed media, or even other types of artists?

It's a little online shop called DeStash Party!

This little shop has little bits of beads, baggies, buttons, found objects, and more - you know, so you don't get bored. Because creativity waits for no one. Once it calls, you have to answer right away or you lose momentum.

If you are the short attention span artist who doesn't want to keep wading through piles and piles of materials just to find the inspiration you're looking for, DeStash Party is the place for you!

You see, it turns out not everybody needs a 100 count package of baggies, or 50 hematite beads, or crochet hooks in all sizes, or 500 popsicle sticks, or a whole ounce of memory wire, or even a whole skein of yarn. Maybe you've got a quick project in mind that only requires 2 beads. Whatever is left over just piles up and clogs your creative flow if you feel forced to create something.

That being said, DSP (that's DeStash Party) is the answer to that problem offering smaller quantities and lower prices. And the inventory is always changing - you know, so you don't get bored!

The MEGA $5 Jewelry Sale Starts At Midnight TONITE!

Okay, okay, okay... I know I've done a lot of work and won't get back what the jewelry is worth on this sale - I'll receive just a little money over the materials I bought. And I'm not trying to make other jewelry artists look bad for charging what their jewelry is worth.

But, here's the thing: What do you do when you need to change direction? YOU GET RID OF A LOT OF STUFF.

Not that my jewelry is "stuff"! Hey, my jewelry is quite beautiful! I'd wear it (if I wore jewelry - I have to remind myself to put it on...Lol!). But it no longer reflects my innermost personality.

Wait a minute, though...This jewelry is a part of my personality. I just want to showcase the part I've kept hidden. I'm pretty sure people will like what I finally present. Yeah, that will be good.

Anyway, I've started a brand new store for this sale which, currently, is for this weekend starting around midnight tonight! You can log into the site with your Facebook information and start shopping, how 'bout that? I was happy about that part - being able to easily log in.

Now, I don't know what happens when you go to check out, so how about somebody come back, comment and let me know? Please? Thanks!!! :D


Go Shopping At Midnight!!!

New Product for Easy-to-Make Necklaces and Bracelets

I have come up with a brilliant product - yes, I'm sure it's been done before, but I don't see it very often: It's called a Beaded Focal Link.

This item is between 2" and 4" long and consists of beads on a piece of wire with loops on both ends for attaching metal chain, leather/cotton/rattail/hemp cord, ribbon, twine, rubber tubing, or whatever you want to use to create your piece of jewelry.

You see, the thing that makes this product valuable is that most of the design guesswork has been taken out of the equation!


So, if you are in a hurry to make a gift for a friend or out to a party and need a piece of jewelry on-the-fly (in other words, really fast!), you can grab one of these Beaded Focal Links and a piece of ribbon and keep going!

The really great thing about my Beaded Focal Links is that they are one-of-a-kind. That way you get an original piece of jewelry every time!

I am certainly looking at making more of these available to customers in my DeStash Party shop. I am also looking to create these links for wholesale business, as well.

If you are interested in wholesale quantities and prices (or you know someone who is) or if you are interested in customized focal links (or you know someone who is), just convo me at my Etsy shop! Prices for individual links start at $8.00 each.
