Skulls and Supporting Independent Film

Zen Creations Jewelry having a special fundraiser for the movie Zombie Girl Diary! I added a special section to the artfire shop - Zombie Girl.  In this section there is a selection of skull earrings, and a portion of the sales from items sold in this section will be donated to the movie.  Now you can get yourself a cute pair of skull earrings and support indie film!  


The movie is being filmed in and around the Chambersburg, PA area, and stars Jim Krut (aka the "hellicopter zombie" from George Romero's "Dawn of the Dead".   The story is about "a mother and daugther fighting to survive throughout a zombie apocalypse. Along the way they encounter other survivors and come together to make their way through the crazy world, not turned upside down." Here is a teaser trailer for the movie:

Creative block, Zombies and new jewelry

For the past month and a half I have been trying to break though the creative block that has rendered me unable to create anything new. Every day I would sit down at my work space, beads, wire and metal laid out in front of me, and nothing would happen. No inspiration, no flash of lightning, no "ah ha!" moments. I would sit there for 30 minutes to an hour, finally giving up and hoping that the next day would bring an answer. Finally, after a month and a half, the inspiration hit and I'm off and running with new ideas. Happy to be working on new pieces and looking forward to listing in both shops by the end of next week.

 In other news, my horror movie loving husband has been cast in a local horror movie! :) He will be playing one of the main zombies in the movie Zombie Girl Diary which will be shot in the Chambersburg, PA area. The movie stars Jim Krut, , aka the "helicopter zombie" from Romero's Dawn of the Dead. "It is a story about a mother and daughter fighting to survive throughout a zombie apocalypse. Along the way they encounter other survivors and come together to make their way through the crazy world, now turned upside down." Can't wait to see my husband as a zombie!!!
