Beauty and the Beads- Handmade Polymer

09/10/2024

I am on "Go Imagine," a site that collects artists and creators to help them find a place to sell their craft without drop shippers and AI generated work.

Right now, I have a bare bones site, but I do have the Advent Box up for sale.

I'm an ordained minister with a family. For years, I've been on the lookout for the perfect Advent Calendar to bring in Christmas, and for years I haven't seen what I wanted.

Someone asked me yesterday what my goal was.
Am I going to be making boxes from here on out? No. That's not what I'm doing. I'm building. No, let me take that back. I'm playing. This is me, outside of the Church building, preaching in ways that are different from lecterns and stages.

I'm at the beginning, with 14 years of creative experience, and a fully funded Kickstarter under my belt. If you think I'm going to use that to make Advent Boxes exclusively, you are thinking too small. (But let's be honest, I've always thought big.)

I'll be at Paulding Meadows Arts and Crafts Fair this weekend at 472 Paulding Meadows Drive. Come talk to me. Come ask me questions. Talk about how we can help one another. Be part of the creative journey I'm about to take. Tickets are $3.

I love how polymer can start off looking like colorful cat vomit and with some work can turn into a beautiful tea light.

One of my newest creations that will be at Paulding Meadows the first weekend in September.
