the lab (Presentation (169)) (2).jpg

Welcome to THE LAB!  I'm so excited to share this space and collection.  Here, it is all about celebrating unedited ideas, producing designs inspired by parts of my personal style I don't usually bring to the collections, and saying YES to my first impulses. I hope that sharing this collection will inspire others to say YES to ideas that they might otherwise edit.  

 

If you are inspired, please share your unedited thoughts.  Maybe your idea will inspire someone else to move forward with theirs... Who knows...  Perhaps you'd like to share how you've already said yes to an impulsive idea you recently had and maybe it's flourishing.  Whatever it is, whatever you'd like to share - as long as it's positive or constructive it's welcome here. -Metch 

 

(A limited number of each design will  be produced).

I absolutely love Entry Three, I get it. The center part is like a screw head and it shows that you are locked into Delta!!❤️❤️

Question: I can see the design on The Lab- Entry One, but not sure about the The Lab-Entry Three. Is that supposed to be Delta Sigma Theta, I can see the pyramid and the the theta symbol, but not the sigma. So what is the gold infusion?

Just seeing this question. Apologies for the delayed response.


You are correct. The design incorporates DELTA, SIGMA, and THETA. The attached video should be helpful...

These designs are very pretty and creative. I will buying some as gifts, especially the Soror Pink Ribbon Cancer Survivor. I didn't know about these because I have been trying to curb my shopping ;-) But I did get some of the other pins as gifts, like Spec/Pers, Sisterhood, and Charter Member/Past President. Now I have to buy a few that say Advisor.

Entry TWO was to be the start of a coming collection called CHANGE MAKERS. My idea behind this collection is to use it to celebrate the many types of change makers found in the membership of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. I consider myself an Arts & Letters Soror but I‘m starting with Social Action Soror because every soror is a Social Action Soror.


I’m still working on the collection. This design - Entry TWO, in the end, isn’t the right fit for it. I was going to tinker with it, to try and make it fit with where my inspiration for The CHANGE MAKERS Collection is taking me but I decided to leave it as is. Let it stand alone. Unedited.

Entry ONE started with this sketch, in one of my many journals opposite one of my many to do lists.


At times, when I'm not sure what to do with a design - I feel stuck. THE LAB is my way of forcing myself to view it a different way. It's my way of freeing myself from the unspoken words that stifle my creativity before I fully investigate where the inspiration might lead... Thank you for joining me here.

This is hot! I love the hammered detail ,the font of the lettering, pearl placement and the end of the Sigma reminds me of a trumpet like its calling/sounding out to everyone to check me out! Fiyah!1
