The Life of a Beadkeeper Contest

✨ The Life of a Beadkeeper™ Bracelet Contest

Win a signed “Life of a Showgirl” CD!

To celebrate the launch of the Honey Box and the Life of a Beadkeeper Box, we’re hosting our first-ever community challenge — a sparkling showcase of creativity, color stories, and the art of bracelet-making.

Whether you’re a seasoned maker, a Swiftie bracelet veteran, or brand-new to the bead world, we want to see your favorite creation from the box you purchased.

✨ How to Enter

  1. Purchase either:
    • The Honey Box
    • The Life of a Beadkeeper Box

  2. Craft your favorite bracelet using beads from that box.
    (Add your creative flair, letter beads, and personal touches — show us your version of magic!)

  3. Post a clear photo of your bracelet on Instagram.

  4. Include the hashtag: #thelifeofabeadkeeper

  5. Tag: @thebeadkeepersociety (so we can see your entry!)

That’s it! Each bracelet you make = one entry, as long as it’s posted separately using the hashtag and tag.

🌟 The Prize

One winner will receive a signed “Life of a Showgirl” CD — a special keepsake chosen by our very own Shinologist-in-Chief, based on creativity, palette harmony, use of materials, and overall vibe.

(Yes… it’s signed. Yes, it’s gorgeous. Yes, we’re screaming, too.)

Our Shinologist-in-Chief will select the winning bracelet based solely on:
