One Star Designs Kickstarter

Vending At The Shadow Society:

One Star Designs is vending tonight at the Shadow Society's monthly get together.  Stop on by and say "hi".

The event is at The Crown & Harp from 10pm till 2am.

Help Us If You Can ::

We've added a BUNCH of new rewards and some new reward levels, including some special high-level packages for major investors and some new low-end rewards for those wanting to jump on without breaking the bank!  If you can also share this with others, it'd be greatly appreciated. 

As with all the previous rewards, these are CUSTOM designs, so you can choose colors and some other design elements when you collect your rewards. 

One Star Designs' Kickstarter Project

Our Kickstarter Program ::

I've had a lot of people, in both the burlesque and pinup communities, ask me to make more retro lines available.  I'm trying to... honest.  Unfortunately, finding supplies that are either actually from that era or that are reproduced to look that way are fairly pricey sometimes. 

I've also been asked to make more of my subculture lines available for immediate purchase.  As it is right now... most of those lines are available by custom order only. 

These are two of the fifteen reasons I started a kickstarter program.  If it reaches funding in time ... these things and more will happen.  It will also allow me to make sure that One Star Designs is at more events, even possibly outside the Dfw area.

I'll be adding more rewards to the kickstarter.  Please help if you can.  Any donation you can give helps!  Also you won't have to pay the donation until may 5th.  If you could also share the link for it... I'd really appreciate it.  Thanks!

Kickstarter Project ::

In order to keep One Star Designs going while we go through this extreme financial hardship, I've created a Kickstarter campaign.  This will allow the business to continue at the very least, and allow for the creation of a couple of new collections.  I hope it will also allow me to have a website made with my own shopping cart for online shopping. 

Check out the campaign, the rewards, and consider investing at:

Future "Affordable" Spooky Line :: A Possible Necklace

I have these delightfully goofy glow in the dark bats.  I'm thinking of punching holes in them and making some super goofy, cheap spooky bat necklaces.  They are flexible silicon bats.  Some are black and some glow in the dark.  Figured some of my clients would appreciate cheap goofy spooky stuff.

Kickstarter ::

A good friend helped me set up the kickstarter for @One Star Designs.  I'm hoping it'll be up and running fairly soon.  I'll post the link when I have it.  Promise!

Pocket Watches Oh My! ::

One of the many sparkly creations we offer here at One Star Designs are pocket watches.  We offer a vast array of designs, choices and colors.  For men we offer the following ... you can custom order a specific pocket watch (style/design/color) and have it made into our "Fancy Multi-chain Victorian Watch Design".  There is a multitude of options available with this design.  Or you can just chose to purchase the watch as is and wear it that way.

We have just as many choices for our female clients as well.  You can chose from:  "Mechanical Trappings In Time" Series, beaded victorian pocketwatch necklace, Fancy Multi-chain Victorian Watch Design or even just wear it on a simple chain.  Each and every creation is unique and tailored to fit our clients perfectly. 

We have a wide variety of pocket watches to chose from... both large and small sizes.  For your convienience, a photo album of available designs has been put up on our facebook page.  Please feel free to peruse it. 

If you wish to order a custom pocket watch, you can contact us at onestardesigns@gmail.com or text us at 214-418-1163 if you're in the DFW area.

One Star Designs :: Vending Two Events On One Night

 One Star Designs will be vending two events tonight. A friend of mine will be vending my sparklies at The Shadow Society Presents: Spring Fever Pin-up Party for the first few hours. I'll be vending at OSD Vending :: Broads & Panties Presents Showgirl Follies and then we'll be at the Shadow Society event afterwards. All purchases at the Shadow Society event will be CASH ONLY until I arrive at th...e event. Unfortunately I only have one credit card reader so it'll be with me at the first event. If you're at the Shadow Society event and wish to make a credit card purchase... no worries... I'll be there sometime around 11pm (possibly a bit later). I'm coming straight over from the other event. :)

 https://www.facebook.com/events/224780007601104/

https://www.facebook.com/events/116813221780512/

I will be holding a raffle at the February Viva Dallas Burlesque.  Since the event is Steampunk themed ... I will be raffling off a one of a kind, custom made steampunk pocketwatch.  This will be one from my higher end pocket watch lines.  THese normally sell fro $90.00 to $160.00.  I will also have a "Mechanical Trappings In Time" Necklace as well.  Regardless of who wins ... you will definately get something you like.  You get to choose between the two items. :) This is to help celebrate my one year anniversary with Viva Dallas Burlesque.  Come one ... come all ...

Tickets will be $1.00 each.  Since I very rarely do raffles ... this is a great opportunity for anyone who loves my sparkly creations to have a chance to win something from one of my higher priced lines.

Online Store Is Returning Soon:

The online store (etsy) will be opening back up. However, since I have a LOT of work to do to it before it can open... it'll be probably February when it opens back up. I need to make new stock, photograph it, write descriptions, list it.... you get the idea. The upside is January is a fairly slow month for me so it is the perfect time to do this. Yay! Until then... all my clients OUTSIDE of the surrounding areas will have to just contact me via facebook, email, or text if you wish to purchase something.

One Of The New Lines For February: "Technicolor Hearts"

One of my new lines.. coming for February.  This line is called "Technicolor Hearts".  This line will have several different styles of hearts in a plethora of colors.  Each necklace will be placed on a gorgeously beaded chain.  The bead colors can be changed upon request free of charge.  Some are gloriously sparkly with a multitude of small crystal accents and some are larger in nature with one solid color.  

This line will become available for purchase later on this week.   It'll be available for sale either at our retail location, Dallas Pinup, or online.  If you wish to purchase one of these glorious creations online... please contact us through either our facebook fan page or by email.

Dallas Pinup can be located at:

Sparkly Cosmic Beads Coming Soon:

I love and adore these beads! I have these gloriously sparkly beads in multiple colors. These are part of a retro line. If you want a matching set... earrings (peirced or clip) and single line bracelets will be available as well. These will be available online, at vending events and also in Dallas PinUp. The line is not yet finished but I will sell what is currently made if someone wants one. Custom colors can also be requested for no extra charge.

Due to a large amount of client requests, One Star Designs will be including some of our pocket watch designs to our current inventory at Dallas Pinup.  The photo above is a previous design from the "Mechanical Trappings In Time" series.  We will, of course, also be including some of our Men's line of pocket watches as well.  If you do not find one to fit your personal style, please by all means contact us.  Custom orders can be placed with me (email, facebook, phone, text) or even at the store.

One Star Designs Spotted In Womens Wear Daily:

So one of my men's sparkling pocket watch in gunmetal ended up on Womens Wear Daily!  Jerry Fedora, a OSD client, was wearing his newly created sparkling pocket watch when he went to see Dita Von Tease at the House Of Blues in Dallas.  See guys... you too can be dashingly stylish like Jerry.  Each pocket watch is made custom order to your specifications.  There are a multitude of color combinations available.  Email me for more information.

Wanna See Pictures Of The Candy Line...

Here are two different styles of lollipop necklaces from our candy line.  The first photo shows Nicole wearing a custom created purple and black necklace.  It's made up of purple beads, black and white stripe beads, black chain and a handsculpted miniature lollipop pendant.  Matching earrings can be requested for this line of lollipop necklaces.  I can also do ANY color choices or combos with this line of lollipop necklaces.

The second photo shows Emily wearing another of our lollipop necklaces.  Her necklace is made up of black fancy chain, black glass pearls, blood red faceted italian glass beads and a black/white lollipop pendant with swarovsky crystals inlayed.  This line is extremely limited and is only available in: pink/white, black/white and blue/white lollipop pendants.  

There will be many more creations added to the candy line, so don't worry if you don't like lollipops.  I do not plan on leaving any "candy" preference out.    Besides the "Candy" Line, I also have both a "Cupcake" Line and a forthcoming "Sweet Tooth" Line as well.  I'd also like to remind you that I will do anything custom order at no extra charge to you.  So if you don't see something that you'd like to have created... please by all means drop me a message, text, phone call or email.  We'll make sure that your sparkly dream is not only fulfilled but perfect!

Men Will Not Be Left Out Of The Sparkly Revolution ::

Don't think that because you're male that you'll be left out. I make man sparklies as well. :) I have a LOT of male clients. In the past I've done: custom bracelets, custom rosaries, my special pocketwatches, necklaces and also car necklaces. No one need go through life without custom sparklies!!! I have absolutely NO PROBLEM sparklifying you. :)

Here's Jerry Fedora wearing a One Star Designs custom pocketwatch creation.  It was made specifically for him.  He chose a gunmetal filligree pocketwatch from Tokyo.  The chains were specifically designed with the wearer in mind.  Just ONE of the multitude of sparklies we offer for the modern man.  Since we don't charge extra for custom work, you can literally have whatever your imagination can think up and even that which you can't.  In the past, our male clients have ordered custom bracelets, necklaces, rosaries, pocketwatches, wallet chains and even car necklaces.  There is no end to the custom work you can have done.  What better way to show the world just how truly unique you are? 

If you're interested in having some custom work created for you or would just really like to purchase something from our various men's lines... please let us know.  Also don't forget to add our facebook fan page to see all the current creations in progress.
