Hey everyone! Just a reminder to start sending me creative writing or drawings for the soon to be published Outreach magazine. If you are interested in writing an article about your experience we would love that as well!

OMG Marieke! I was meaning to ask you if you wanted to do a short article on your jewelry. Maybe half a page about what exactly it is and the rest can be filled with photos of your work?
