Zen Creations Jewelry needs your help!

Zen Creations Jewelry is currently a one woman show, with occasional help from my husband and daughter. I spend as much time as possible learning techniques, developing and creating my jewelry. I am working on a new soutache line, as well as continuing to develop my mixed metals/steampunk line. This requires a lot of time, tools and materials. I need your help to develop and promote my work. I have set up a fundraiser @ gofundme.com The funds donated will go towards purchasing the necessary tools, packaging, advertising and materials needed to grow and promote our brand. As a thank you for backing my campaign, I will be offering special rewards. Updates and sneak peeks of new pieces will also be posted as I go along.

To view more of my work, please visit my Etsy shop . If you like what you see, please consider telling your friends about Zen Creations. You can also follow Zen Creations on Facebook , Instagram , Pinterest and Twitter . Your shares, tweets, retweets, and comments really help! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will answer you as quickly as I can. As always, thank you very much for your support!

Getting Back on Track

    Wow! It has been almost a year since I last posted. Creatively, I was burned out and needed some time to take a break and let inspiration come to me.  Personally, I needed time to learn how to approach jewelry making while dealing with yet another chronic illness - fibromyalgia.  
   I cut back on shows this past year to allow me time to figure out an approach to production that cases the least amount of pain, and to spend more time with my family and it worked!  If you follow me on Facebook or my shops, I'm sure you have seen some of the new pieces I've made the last two months.  If not, here is just a taste:

This Saturday I will be set up in my usual spot for Mercersburg Townfest with many more new steampunk, crystal and gemstone jewelry!  Keep an eye on my shops for new listings!  

Giving Back To Mother Earth Festival - This Saturday!
