Hello! This is Meredith L. Jackson, and this is my new venue to distribute crafting ideas, news about different artsy events, and The Drama Queen Collection, my jewelry/accessories business that features my handmade products.
As I was courting other online news collectives and blogs, I felt I needed a place "out of the box" to give ideas, and what I feel is important in the world of arts, crafts, and fashion told in my point of view. In life, we have to make concessions to fit into certain places. Feeling uninspired writing about arts and crafts in the third person as a hobby, I knew it was time for something new. So much of art and creation involves one's self, and while readers really don't want to read all about the writer, a bit of personalization goes a long way. After all... what would possess someone to make earrings out of Lego bricks and bracelets with glass bananas all over? Nothing a floating narrator in the sky could explain.
Also, to be quite blunt, I need any place possible to promote my own products. While I will refrain from making my creations THE focus of this page, they will certainly be advertised. Who knows... you may want to buy something pretty for yourself or someone you care about. (http://www.tdqcbymlj.etsy.com)
