Here are all the beadwork, jewelry and mixed media publications I know of that accept unsolicited article queries and work to be featured in their gallery pages. Each mag has its own procedures -- some pay, some don't; some request you send a brief email first, some have deadlines, themes, etc. Improve your odds of getting published by familiarizing yourself with each magazine and its submission guidelines!

ReplyDeleteThank you 8-) It took a little web searching when I first put it together, now I just have to add and tweak it now and then.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary - I find myself being drawn more towards mixed media and altered art and am constantly looking for sources of inspiration AND places to send the results of my perspiration should I ever get bold enough!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you'd be interested in posting some Canadian Magazines as well, but "A Needle Pulling Thread"
ReplyDeleteis a good publication, they concentrate on fiber arts, however, they are very interested in beaded jewelry : http://www.aneedlepullingthread.com/
And we also have a new beading magazine called "Canadian Beading":

Thank you Jewels! Just the kind of info I'd love to include. 8-)
