A Small Business with Big Dreams—And You Can Be a Part of the Story

I’m Danielle, the artist and founder of The Resin B.A.E (Before Anything Else), where I turn resin into art that celebrates beauty, creativity, and self-expression. My work is a mix of colorful, handcrafted pieces infused with flowers, personal meaning, and a whole lot of love. From home décor to body-positive figurines, I create one-of-a-kind resin pieces that are meant to last a lifetime.

But here’s the thing—running a handmade business isn’t easy. Vendor fees, materials, and event costs add up quickly, and each opportunity to showcase my work at pop-up markets comes with a price tag. That’s where you come in.

Why This Fundraiser Matters

Being part of vendor markets is more than just setting up a table and selling my work. It’s about getting my business in front of the right people—people who appreciate handmade art, people who believe in supporting small businesses, and people who want to see artists like me succeed.

These markets are the heartbeat of small businesses like mine. They are where connections happen, where handmade meets heart-made, and where I can introduce my work to customers who are looking for something unique, meaningful, and crafted with care.

But the reality is simple: If I can’t afford vendor fees, I miss out. And every missed opportunity is a step back from growing a business I’ve poured everything into.

How You Can Help

If you’ve ever seen someone take a leap toward their dream and thought, I wish I could help them make it happen, this is your chance. Here’s how:

Donate: Every dollar gets me closer to covering vendor fees and growing my business. Whether it’s $5, $50, or more, every bit counts.
Share: If you believe in supporting small businesses and independent artists, sharing this campaign helps more than you know.
Cheer Me On: Your support, whether financial or simply spreading the word, makes all the difference.

What Your Support Makes Possible

Vendor fees covered for multiple events, meaning more exposure and more opportunities to grow
The ability to expand my product line and invest in better materials
The chance to create, connect, and continue this journey without the constant stress of whether I can afford the next market

This is More Than a Business—It’s a Dream in Motion

I started The Resin B.A.E because I believe in creating pieces that tell stories—stories of beauty, resilience, and the power of handmade artistry. Your support doesn’t just help me pay vendor fees. It keeps this dream alive and gives it room to grow.

If you’ve ever wanted to support an artist, lift up a small business, or be part of someone’s success story, this is your moment. Let’s build something amazing together.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
