Ok I decided to add this as a way of introducing myself and let you know what Phoenix Rising Designs is and the people behind it! I'm now a member of Phoenix Oddites Studios with Rozena and we're starting our first season together in April.
I started Phoenix Rising Designs in 2004 after about 6 years of apprenticing and selling for other artists and designers. I have worked some really great art shows and one really muddy one. Seriously, shin deep in mud and sleeping in my van. The bathrooms weren't finished with walls between the toilets so... Anyway, I've done my share of moving around with my work! haha I am a wife and mother to one son.
I mentioned "people", right? Well those of you who have helped me in the past are free to add your stories. Rozee, we almost got stolen, remember? haha Brittany, you helped me for about 6 or 7 seasons and one time fell asleep with mud and rocks in your hair, right? My husband and son helped be run stuff to the van in pouring sheets of rain in Huron, Oh. Cambrey, how many lunches did we eat at that apple festival again? I also have met some great people, had wonderful sales and fantastic times on circuit too. Rozena and I will be adding some of our experiences from this summer and looking for fun and interresting people or places to introduce you to. So check back with us.
I am currently working like crazy to add more wholesale accounts to my business. I'm currently in 4 stores and opening another display in Waynesville, OH (Windsome Cottage) this May. My styles are tribal and steampunk jewelry, hair accessories, and walking staff grips. I have an online store: http://www.phoenixbartender.etsy.com/, check it out. Thanks!
(Why "phoenix bartender"? Well I like the mythical creature and I'm a bartender at night and an artist by day. )
