FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What artistic mediums and materials do you use?
BossiRainbow creations and artist materials are made of mixed-mediums such as professional polymer modeling compounds, stainless steel ear posts or hooks (for our earrings), and/or brass wire. Some of our works include acrylic paint and/or gold or silver leafing. Our works may also include glitter and/or mica powders embedded within or on the surface. The mediums used within our creations are listed in the full product description. Due to all of our works being made by artists, no works are exactly the same. Some works may have miniscule air bubbles and/or light fingerprints, which means it is authentically made by an artist.
What metals do you use in your jump rings, wire-wrapping, and/or ear posts/hooks?
Our jump rings are hand-wrapped and cut, and are made of brass, though we may use copper, gold-filled, and/or sterling silver wire, among other wires, on occasion. Any metals used in our creations are listed within the full product description.
We use hypoallergenic surgical steel ear posts and hooks in all of our wearable art that touches the ears. Contact us if you have a specific metal allergy, and we will work with you to adapt or create something original for you.
How should I care for my wearable art pieces and artwork?
Treat BossiRainbow works as you would other fine art and fine jewelry, with tenderness, love, and care. Our works are durable, but could break if dropped or bent.
Clean surfaces with a soft cloth, such as an eyeglasses cloth. Take care on surfaces that include acrylic paint, gold/silver leaf, or glitter/mica powder, as these surfaces may rub off with vigorous or repetitive cleaning.
Works should not be submerged in water or other liquids for any length of time. Thus, we highly recommend not wearing your wearable art pieces during showers, baths, and/or swimming, etc.
Clean and buff metal surfaces with a soft cloth to reduce any tarnishing and/or remove oils transferred from your skin. While most metal will naturally tarnish and patina over time and due to oxidation, oils, sprays, creams, and lotions may speed up this process.
We recommend you keep our works in a lidded box and/or away from direct sunlight and other areas of high temperatures, to ensure safety and reduce opportunities for the pieces to be damaged or broken.
What if my wearable art is damaged?
The polymer clay we use is very pliable and durable, and some clay colors may bake harder than others. If your wearable art pieces become significantly damaged due to shipping mishandling, an accident, or other unforeseeable event, please contact us and we will work with you to resolve it.
Can I order a custom made wearable art piece or special set?
We’d love to work with you to create a custom made wearable art piece or special set! Please contact us with your interests and any of our pieces that inspire your vision.
We can also create special gift sets for that unique soul in your life and/or for your special events like weddings, baby showers, and reunions, for example.
