Polymer Clay Beads, Charms and Buttons

An artist credit statement is now required for:

     • Those who resell/retail my polymer clay creations as-is via the internet.
         (This is appreciated but not required if you use them in finished          designs, clothing, jewelry etc. or resell from physical storefronts such as          bead shops)

     •   Designs selected for publication. Magazines, tutorials, flyers, catalogs           etc.

Credit statements should read "created by artist Dana Bates". Edit this as neccessary based upon what you are reselling or have used in your published design.

This does not apply to imported, Polyform Products Mold designs or any other pieces I do not hold the copyright to. So please let me know if you are planning to resell or be published so I can assure the correct credit is given.

Finished Jewelry Designs, Figurines, Room Signs and all other non-imported Handcrafted Items

All other designs on this website covered under my general copyright will require a credit statement only if you intend to use their image for publication or resell them directly to the public via the internet. Physical storefronts are not required to post a credit statement.

Imported Items

Crafts'N'Scraps does not claim copyright for any of the imported designs (beads, jewelry items, charms, scarves etc.) on this site. Those copyrights are held by the companies themselves. We do use our own photos and description text of these items and you can't take them for your own use. Photo and text copyright violations will be reported to hosting providers, E-bay VERO etc. as well as our legal represenation.
