AMAZED!

Last night's RAW show was the most amazing experience. Never in my wildest dreams would I have expected such a wonderful turn-out! 

Set up went perfectly, I managed to remember everything I needed, my table looked great, and I was non-stop busy from 8 until after 11. It was wonderful to get to see people excited about the things I have made, my art... 

The whole evening was a blast! Keep an eye on my Etsy shop for listings of the leftover pieces I made for the show!

Thanks to everyone who came and saw me at the show!

RAW Artists Show... in 4 days!

Only four days until the August RAW show! I've been spending all of my time working on new pieces, display projects, verifying accounts for credit card readers, and trying to figure out what all I've forgotten to do!

As of last night I am officially knocking out the display details for the show itself. Thanks to the help of a few very special people I am almost there...

Here's what I'm leaning towards for the show:

I currently have 8 tickets left to sale by the end of Monday, so if you're interested please check it out! http://www.rawartists.org/tulsa/radiate/?artist=66416

RAW Artist Show

Line Eleven Finery's first official show will be August 16th! Raw Artists contacted me about joining their group recently. After much contemplation and a phone interview, the wheels have officially been set in motion. The show will be on Thursday, August 16th from 8pm to midnight. I'm hoping to have at least 100 pieces with me at the show! If you're interested in coming, you can buy tickets here:

http://www.rawartists.org/lineeleven

Just select 'Buy a Ticket for this Artist' to get the $10 discounted price, and to support me as the artist.

There's going to be a concert by White Collar Sideshow, a fashion show, and so much more. I'm nervous but very excited as well! Let me know if you have any questions, you can always contact me at lineelevenfinery@gmail.com

Updates Galore!

Stuff is slowly changing at Line Eleven Finery. Though I have enjoyed making necklaces since that fateful day  almost a year ago, when I made my first piece, I have since struggled to figure out exactly what my style and design taste is. Over time I feel like I have learned what I don't like more than what I really do like. But my recent application to RAWartists (check it out here: http://www.rawartists.org), and the fact that Etsy just launched their bio/about pages, has really helped me to focus on what I like most and the direction that I want to take Line Eleven. I have also run into a situation with the usual chain I like to buy and it has forced me to shop around and step out of my comfort zone on a few chain options/methods. Since then I have been able to find a few chain option gems that have helped me push my creative envelope and dabble in a few new ideas. Since then I have made some of my very favorite pieces and have an overflow of ideas for more. Now the question is, when will I have time to make them all?!!?

This is a big deal for Line Eleven and I'm so glad to be able to get everything officially underway!

PhotoBox Shoot

I'm getting closer and closer to having real live necklaces ready to hit my shop. After a nasty health set back, I'm more than ready to get this moving forward again!

Today I spent the evening taking pictures of some of my necklaces in my new (homemade) PhotoBox. The pictures turned out pretty well and I'm hoping to take more soon.

I'm working on pricing, shipping methods, and a few other loose ends, but I'm back at this full-force!

I'll leave you now with a few of the shots I got tonight! (feel free to click on the picture to see it larger)

Etsy Coming Soon!

I'm really excited to announce that I am in the process of setting up an Etsy shop! I've got around 60 necklace pieces completed as of right now. I just need to figure out shipping and all that fun stuff.

I did a little photoshoot this weekend of some of the pieces I hope to post first. Here's one of them (this one seems to be catching several people's eye!)

Can't wait to get it all launched and out there!!
