New Shop & New Juxtapose Necklaces

newshop_001The new Art School Dropout shop went live this morning! I am super happy with the way it came out. It’s simple and I love the way it showcases the products. What do you think?

I’m even happier with the new Juxtapose Collection that went live along with the shop. I talked about it a bit last week, the series I’m calling the “Dark Collection”.

GRUMP @ the Artisphere and Closing Up Shop until 2014

grump2webTomorrow, all day, I will be vending at GRUMP Holiday Arts & Crafts Fair at the Artisphere, which is located at 1101 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington VA !

It will be the last show I’m doing this year, so if you’re in the area, please come by and say hi!

To make sure inventory doesn’t get all messed up, I’m closing up shop before the show and won’t be reopening until the second week of January 2014. Normally I close up shop around the 10th, but with CT’s party coming up and handmade gifts that need to be made, the decision to do so tonight was better for everyone. Less stress for me, and no delayed packages for you!

So if there was something you really wanted, go get it now! I can’t promise it will be there come 2014.

Black Friday Sale & Shop Update

blackfriday_shopupdate_2013_banner blackfriday_shopupdate_2013It’s that time of the year! I am mostly prepared.

I have added loads of arrow accessories and a few small home goods to the shop and to go along with the whole Black friday theme, I’m also having a sale…

20% off all orders over $20, using coupon code “blackfridayagain”, during checkout.

Plus any order over $50 will also receive a free gift! I have a little box full of arrow necklaces, star hairpins, triangle rings and more that I haven’t taken photos of yet. My daughter will help me choose the free gift for each order, so it will be completely random!

This Black Friday offer will expire Saturday night at midnight EST. If you happen to miss out, don’t worry, I have something planned for Cyber Monday too.

I will most likely be closing up shop for the year, early in the morning on December 7th. With CT’s birthday coming up in two weeks and a bunch of other events, I don’t think I could keep up. So if heres something you really wanted to get, now is the time! I don’t plan to reopen until the first week of January 2014.

Good luck out there shopping today and be safe. I stay in every year, but I hear it gets pretty crazy!!!

Sneak Peek: Friday’s Shop Update

arrowhair_darkgrayl_silverglitter_002I’m probably insane, but I decided to partake in all the Black Friday craziness. I am working on a huge update that will pretty much be arrow themed. Arrow hairpins, arrow earrings, arrow wall decor and a few arrow ornaments! Arrows, Arrows and more arrows!

There will also be a coupon code involved, but I won’t give that part away until Friday morning, early! So keep an eye out, if you REALLY like arrows!

Shop Update: Just Give Me All The Glitter!

shopupdate_10292013shopupdate_10292013_01 shopupdate_10292013_02 shopupdate_10292013_03shopupdate_10292013_04have been behind in keep up on blog posts, but that doesn’t mean I’ve been sitting around lazily on my butt! I have updated around 50 new items in the shop over the past two weeks. Plus I have had two very large projects to work on, we have had some family outings and we went to NYC for BlytheCon! I’m hoping things calm down a bit so I can share all of those things, even if it’s a month or so late.

Anyway, back to the shop update! There are a bunch of new designs, colors and more! You should go check it out, and tell all of your friends or even strangers! I love making all of these new glittery pieces way more than I expected and I’d love a reason to make more.

Thirty-One

111IMG_2737_550This was supposed to have posted yesterday but apparently it didn’t! Technically I’m not TURNING 31, Today I AM 31, but the deal is still the same!

I have had a sale during my birthday week since I started Art School Dropout 10 years ago. Each year the percentage off is whatever age I will be. My husband says I should probably stop at some point because the discount will be HUGE soon (not too soon, it’s not like I’m aging faster than everyone else or anything) but that doesn’t concern you guys now!

I have updated a few more smaller pieces to the shop and am quietly working on more. So if there’s something you have been eyeing now is the time to get it!!!

Oh and the coupon code expires Friday at midnight EST!
