It has always been my mission to bring not only function to diabetes accessories but always style to boot. But I never wanted to stop at just bags…I wanted to give the community options to make every accessory their own. Now almost 5 years later I’m happy with the direction our accessories are moving into. With diabetes awareness bracelets, carrying cases of so many varying sizes and configurations it’s what I’ve wanted for pwd since I launched in 2007.

Here are just some of the newest pieces we’ve added…join our Newsletter for private pricing deals and heads up on our newest collections.

Thank you for reading and as always let me hear your input!

Many ways to diabetes awarness with our Tuff Bands

Wristlet Refresh & Sparkle On

Sparkle On Clutch

Wristlet Refresh

Not the beaded crystal jewelry wearing type? No worries, we have some ideas that you may enjoy. Our newly updated Tuff Gear Collection includes 2 designs of Tuff Bands with a couple more coming in the next week or so. With all the new additions coming you may be wondering…how do I keep up Rickina? Well you can through a couple of ways, our Newsletter or on our Facebook fanpage.

If you’re a more rugged gear type, or if your little one is well…tough on their stuff. A Tuff Band is the solution you’re looking for. Durable, strong and customized to your color choices you’ll absolutely wear them and still show your awareness.  They also come standard with a stainless steel shakle buckle…but if you’re partial to the sturdy nylon buckle in your choice of colors, you can still opt for that too.

Visited our website and missed seeing our best selling wristlet? I miss seeing it too…but not to worry. The next collection will be available in the next few weeks. Our newly voted on and selected fabrics courtesy of you all, are arriving at our contractors location, and are getting started.

This Fall season the wristlets will make their debut again, while the deluxe clutch will launch later in the season.

But because we want to be The destination for all your functional, style-forward diabetes bags, clutches, and awareness jewelry and tees, we’re already working on 2 new carry designs inspired by You, our customers, fans, followers and friends. If you know anything on how we debut new designs we do that through our Newsletter or the Facebook fanpage, so if you love hearing the news before thousands of others do…Get on the list.

Oh and hey have you seen our Tuff Clutch yet? Quickly becoming a favorite, constructed of heavy seatbelt webbing, and monster sized zipper, it’s strong, durable and looks ready to take on your daily diabetes grind. Each Tuff Clutch can be customized with your choice of up to 4 different webbing colors! My husband absolutely loves this bag, and he’s a hard-to-impress kinda guy. So tell me what you think….

Also in September, we’ll be attending a trade show in hopes to connect and build relationships with hundreds of pharmacies across the US, to help bring our accessories to more of the community so you can see, feel, and experience them before you buy.

If you’d like to see our accessories in your pharmacy, please ask for Stick Me Designs diabetes accessories to the manager or owner. Then let us know you asked them, if we get our products in that location receive a FREE accessory of your choice!  Contact Us for more details.

What if a cool t-shirt donated $5 to the Diabetes Charity or Organization that you chose? Granted….our new Diabetes Blue Ring Tees are here for a limited time, and they do just that. Our Blue Ring Tees will be available in white and black and in adult and kid sizes by next week.  Handmade to order, and washable they’re perfect for awareness and conversation starting.

We’ve also added diabetes keyfobs and keychain tags. Not the jewelry wearing type, no worries you

can still make others aware by grabbing a keyfob or keychain tag. Customized for what you want to say, they’re great on backpacks, rear view mirrors, or on your keychain.

Don’t you feel special when you get exclusive access to something not everyone does? I LOVE it. I mean who doesn’t like to feel like they’re getting into something that is secret and private? Maybe it’s my inquisitive child inside, but I love it. Enter ‘Krymson’ our newest addition, a collection of Diabetes Handbags

So in case you didn’t know, I’m working on several new additions and changing some things around these days, and one of them is the introduction of our Handbag collection ‘Krymson’. While the collection may not be for everyone, it is for you if you want a beautifully styled utility style bag that can hold ALL of your daily stuff…including your d-supplies. This diabetes handbag collection will be durable, strong yet beautiful and stylish.  Priced a bit higher than our clutches and wristlets, it will be the bag you go to when you need to carry larger wallets, more stuff, your tablets, supplies, even an extra pair of flat shoes..(cause you never know when the feet will need a break

In the design phase now I hope to have pieces available just in time for the holidays. Another new addition is the adding of a Mini-BP..small back pack. Perfect if you need a hands free way to keep your supplies, but don’t want an over the shoulder bag. Or if you happen to just like back packs the Mini BP will do the trick. Still in prototype phase, we’re hoping to roll this one out by 2013.

But back to the exclusive access peek at the first bag from Krymson…I made a video showcasing my very rough sample…if you wanna see it, you can request a private showing. Now mind you…this is a very rough peek…the final product will be smashing…but my sewing/gluing skills not so much, so keep that in mind Request your invite HERE!

We’re in a race…a race to get at least 250 votes to be eligible for a $250K grant from Chase & Living Social to help our business grow! We would love it a ton if you would vote for us. We would use the funds to grow through more styles to choose from, more designs, and allow us to visit more events, and support more charities and diabetes focused causes.

I’ve even created a little infographic to help you vote…(cause it can be a little tricky)

Thank you for your votes!

Punky Girl Set

If you’re new hear you may not know that in addition to Stick Me Designs I also am an on again/off again crafter jewelry maker, and overall craft junkie. I can’t help it, I see something an in an instant I’m thinkin’ ‘How can mama make that’?

Well it seems that the itch tends to spill over into my webstore occasionally and viola some jewelry will emerge. In the past I’ve worked with other local artists to help fill orders, and sometimes I’ll do them myself. Well I have a few ‘samples’ that I’d like to giveaway to some pretty awesome folks! Is that you by the way?

Well here is a list of ‘Type’ specific pieces I have:

* a ‘Diabetic Type 2′ Sterling Silver tag(measures 1″ by 1/4″) with Red Glass Drop on a Sterling Chain.

* a ‘Type 1 Diabetic’ Sterling Silver tag (measures 1.5″ x .75″ – just smaller than a dog tag) on a black ball chain.

* a brass ‘LADA’ tag (almost 1″ by 1/4″) on a brown ball chain.
