We have three designers at a time, services last for 3 months at a time with 2 posts a month on our blog for a total of 6 projects. We are looking to fill designer positions from December 2010 through all of 2011.
Artists who design fun, easy, creative projects that are embellished with Art Glitter products are ideal. We have several types of products that go beyond glitter. We hope you will be inspired to share your talents with our readers.
Qualified entries will:
Send us three examples of your work (an additional close up picture is optional), to the email link below. Even if you don't have examples with glitter on them that's okay, we just want to see enjoyable projects. We are looking for all types of styles, particularly in the indie, jewelry, three-dimensional, fabric, recycled, fine arts and paper arts categories.
Name, address, phone number and any links that showcase your work.
We are looking for designers who are passionate about Art Glitter products and will Spread the Sparkle with whom they can. You must be committed to submitting all entries on time and willing to abide by our writing guidelines. Selected designers will be required to sign and return Art Glitter's terms and conditions form.
Designers must live in the Continental United States or be willing to pay for shipping costs outside the Continental U.S.
Designer Services:
Designer will submit two blog entries per month for the three months of their service. Please send a short bio and link information as soon as possible for advance advertising, (include a portrait photo if desired). First entry of month will be submitted no later than the 25th day of the previous month and the second entry will be submitted no later than the 10th of the month.
Designer shall also enter same entry on their blog along with a link to Art Glitter’s blog and/or web site.
Completed design must clearly portray Art Glitter products. If competing products are used or mentioned, product compensation will not be provided. Products used that do not compete with Art Glitter brands are acceptable.
Photos must accompany all projects. Glitter is difficult to photograph. Try some shots indoors with and without lights, as well as outdoors in sunlight and in shade to find your best representation. Be mindful of busy backgrounds when shooting your project. A close up photo is always helpful in showing glitter. However out of focus/poor quality photos will not be used. Most cameras have a “close up” mode that will help in these situations.
Designer Compensation:
Art Glitter product compensation is $30 per month in retail value for services completed.
ArtGlitterBlog will also supply a link to Designer’s blog during time of service.
Designer will receive a permanent space with bio and links on our “Guest Designers” page on www.artglitter.com. Like Laura Bray's space here...
We promote our designers as much as we can with twitter and facebook updates. We receive emails every week from new customers mentioning they found us through our blog. This is a great opportunity to introduce and promote yourself to a growing community of artists/crafters and to have a good time! To date two of our designers' posts/projects have been picked up with online syndication news including links to their personal sites.

Art Glitter reserves the right to change any copy that misleads or incorrectly uses its products upon written notice to Designer. Art Glitter will also use a thumbnail photo of each project to place on “Guest Designers” page on www.artglitter.com as a representation of Designer’s work while associated with Art Glitter.
