I've been in the fandom for nearly two and a half years, still love some of the same artists as when I was introduced to the fandom, although a whole slew of others. If I have given you money or free art in the past, most likely you fall into that list...and possibly even if not.
I DO make chainmaille, I do go to conventions, I do sell chainmaille at conventions. I also do my best to seek out the artist at said convention whom I most fanboy and give them a token of my gratitude (probably a bracelet)
Art trades are a possible.
I DO NOT make free stuff by request. My materials cost money, and if you want something the absolute minimum I want in return will be the cost of materials if you are a repeat customer

Bulk orders are available on any pieces you have seen in the past. I will offer significant discounts for non-profit organizations if you order 10 or more bracelets from me (no less than $5/piece + shipping)
