Threaded Chains - New + Promo Update: 11/16/09

Journal Entry: Sun Aug 23, 2009, 3:52 PM


Welcome to Threaded Chains!

I'm sure some of you have no idea what's going on but please read below to get an idea of who is involved in Threaded Chains.

To purchase some items right away please visit these links:

Threaded Chains' Etsy Shop: [link]
Threaded Chains' Artfire Shop: [link]
Threaded Chains' Shophandmade Shop: [link]
Threaded Chains' on Ebay: Coming Soon!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Currently we are experiencing some “growing pains”. Updates have been a little slow on my part, and for that I apologize. Currently We are working on getting our shop policies and shipping prices adjusted and updated to accommodate our diversity in product offerings. As always promotions and sales will be announced here. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us via convo or e-mail at Deathinthereaper [!at] hotmail.com. Again, thank you for your patience!
~Remmie

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We make handmade jewelry, charms, and someday soon we hope to make candles, soap, and polymer clay beads. Also, keep an eye out for hair accessories! Also being added to our shop are vintage items including patterns, how to books and magazines, and soon clothing! In order to see those items please see the above links where you can purchase the items off DA as we cannot post non-art or artisan related items here.

We will also, from time to time, feature items that our friends or family have made or sell some of their destash items. There is always something new and exciting going on at Threaded Chains, don't miss out! Currently all vintage and most destash items are coming to me courtesy of my mother, as we are in the process of helping my grandmother to clean out her house. She has a lot of interesting and rare finds so don’t miss out!

IMPORTANT: Our polices, shipping, payment, and other policy sections are undergoing construction. Please be aware that they will be updated soon and will affect past AND future transactions.

Threaded Chains is growing steadily day by day thanks to all our customers and all the fantastic shops and shoppers that have hearted us or our items over the last few months. Please continue to show us your support and check us out at these other places on the web:

Who We Are

Threaded chains is a joint venture between myself and my good friend :icongoldenfox123187:. The purpose of this joint venture is to help us raise money to be able to do anything from going places together down to paying for certain necessities we have that our current jobs aren't enough to pay for.

So why Threaded Chains? Well our little shop is going to sell all kinds of hand crafted jewelry, book/manga thongs, charms, and more. Threaded stands for the craft part of our little joint venture. And chains, to me, stands for our everlasting and strong friendship which I believe is unbreakable, just like chain links.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Rules and Other Info

:bulletred: Please read everything before contacting us.

:bulletred: We will not take commissions on charms or book/manga thongs. All pieces will be pre-made and pictures taken for you to choose from. Everything else we make is fair game: all jewelry (hemp and on hemp) and eyeglass/sunglass strings.

:bulletred: All commissions and regular orders will be taken on a first come first served basis unless you have a specific deadline that you need something by (like a birthday, etc). In that case you'll be bumped to the top of the list.

:bulletred: If you have a deadline you need something by please place your order at least TWO WEEKS in advance. This will give us adequate time to make the piece (if it's a commission) or prepare one of our premade pieces for shipping. We can be flexible with this but please keep in mind sometimes we don't readily have the supplies that may be required to make your item. The majority of our products are bought online and we need to have adequate time to have them shipped to us in order to make your items!

:bulletred: We reserve the right to update this journal without having to notify you of any changes. If you want to remain up to date while your commission is being worked on please watch =DeathInTheReaper. He won't harbor any ill-will toward you if you un-watch him after you receive your order.

:bulletred: You may NOT claim our work as your own (as in you made it).

:bulletblue: We will ask for payment before sending your order.

So long as the money is concealed and can't be seen if the envelope is held up to the light you should be fine.

It doesn't bother me so long as you post it. Maybe if you made a small announcement in your journal about posting it so your watchers know about Threaded Chains? Cause I know not everyone watches people's scraps.

And I'm sending you the note now.

Yes I do owe you. And I actually have it drawn completely. I just need to ink and color it. I promise you'll have it soon. Coloring people doesn't take me NEARLY as long as it does to do a BG.

The book thongs sound interesting. When I have some cash to spare I may get one of those. I will tell you to definitely put up as many photos of finished work as you can, even if it's making some in advance and selling those.

Another good place to sell is Etsy.com, there's a lot of handcrafted stuff there and you can put in a store. There's even a special search feature for people who have never sold or just made their first sale, which could help.

Good luck! and happy 21rsts!

COMMISSION INFO: [link]
Reply
:icondeathinthereaper:
Yeah I'm going to get pictures up. Especially for the book thongs and charms because those are going to be pre-made, no commissions. I'm going to be working on the financial part of all this as well as keeping up with this journal. And I do have an etsy account we could use as well. Some of my work is already up on there. We need to make a few and we still need to decide how exactly we'll be making the wire jewelry. But so far we're just going to take it slow and get as much done as we can handle. We'll still want to have lives. xD

But I hope you do get something from us. Every little bit is going to help. :) I might even throw some stuff up on ebay because I have an account there too. We're not officially open yet because I still need to sit down with her and go over some things. I just need to keep up with the money xD

And thank you. <3
