Spotting Fake Community Merch
A reminder that official merch is sold only through the website and occasional Bonfire campaigns, so other shirts are fakes.

Fake Metalsmith Society Merch 🤦♀️ this isn’t new news but I just figured I’d share. On a regular basis persons unknown take my trademarked logo and place it on merch to sell it. I think that means I’ve made it! 🤣 but honestly I’m not losing any sleep over this it’s just a gentle reminder I only sell through my website metalsmithsociety.com and an occasional Bonfire campaign. It just goes to show the incredible support of our community that people have even purchased the fake shirts! I appreciate you all! If you do see someone commenting in the jewelry communities on Facebook about these fake shirts just leave a kind comment that it is a fake to let others know! #jewelrymakingcommunity
