FAQs

Do you take custom requests? 

I open up custom slots for felted/textile work periodically throughout the year. If you are a customer of mine interested in custom work it never hurts to reach out and ask-- I often say yes. :)

What the heck is a Glowforge?

The Glowforge is a laser cutting machine. Mine was named Gloria but that one hit the bucket. We'll be adding a new laser to our studio in November!

Built on laser cutter & engraver technology, Glowforge uses a beam of light the width of a human hair to cut, engrave, and shape designs from a variety of materials. If you are interested in owning a Glowforge and have questions about it feel free to reach out! I also have a personalized referral link that gives you a discount on your Glowforge and a financial treat for me, too! 

 

What about the Carrie in Color calendar? 

I'm planning on keeping the calendar going! This year I am collaborating with artist Bessan Abed for the calendar. 100% of the profits will be sent to her. This year will be a preorder so keep an eye out for that! The best way to keep up with release dates is to join our email list or follow on Instagram (@carrie_in_color). You can also shop Bessan's other art to support her survival and evacuation from Gaza here. 

What kind of earring findings do you use? 

Most ear hooks and stud posts are hypoallergenic and are made of stainless steel or gold plated stainless steel. Jump rings are stainless steel or brass. Some speciality posts are made of other metals. All are nickel-free and the type of posts/hooks used in each design are named in the listing. Please always feel free to switch out your hardware! 

How often will you release collections? 

I have no idea! (I'm only half joking.) I'm a one-woman show with a fulltime job, a young child, AuDHD a puppy and depression. To be transparent, I'm still figuring out what a sustainable creation schedule looks like for me and my capacity is a rollercoaster. The best way to stay in the know about what is coming up on the website is to follow along on Instagram @carrie_in_color.
