Artificer Made is now a Blog!

That's right. It seems that the things I make and sell are a little difficult to explain sometimes with the tools that ETSY provides. But by all means please go see what I'm selling at my ETSY store Artificer Made.

That is to say, that much of what I create exists within a context that is not always apparent at first blush. That is the nature of creating ... well ... oddities and frivolities I suppose. Things that exist to satisfy the demands of a fictitious reality are just going to need more introduction.

So here's what we're going to do. The current artificers will post as often as we can about what we are building, how we are building it, and ... when it matters ... why we are building it.

I will be producing some tutorial videos whenever a good subject comes up. Feel free to send me suggestions, or questions whenever they arise.

Last but not least, we will be giving shit away. Once we have a few dedicated fans I plan on running a weekly promotion. It could be a straight up give-a-way. It could be a contest. But there will always be an interesting prize.

The prizes will be in the tradition of the fiasco artifica, abject and ruinous failure. Whenever a project fails miserably there is usually something interesting left amid the wreckage. Perhaps some bit of metal or glass that could be used as a decoration or jewelry. I don't know. I don't care. If I could have used it for something I would have so it's up to you. I have all manner of things here I can't use but are still too cool to melt for scrap.

Anyway, there's my welcome message, I hope you enjoy the show.

Spring Cleaning

Running a coupon code this month in my etsy shop.

Don't count on me running many things like this, I find them tacky.

But I'm gearing up to do a Renn. Faire this summer and hopefully I will be at Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago this year. That means tripling my inventory in the next few weeks. And ... since most of what's up in my shop are prototypes and new designs I have no idea if I should make more of them or concentrate on other things.

So if you have been holding out, do so at your own peril. The coupon will get you 25% off and most items include free-domestic shipping already.

Also, keep an eye open for a few new designs I'm wrapping up. They should be dropping in the next few weeks.

The coupon code is:
