Oh hi, I'm Britney!

At the start of 2020, I was a successful photographer and through a series of really weird events, pandemics, diagnoses, life changes, and joining TikTok I became an accidental influencer. Eventually I figured out that my true calling was helping other people realize they aren't alone in this weird world and in making mental health and humor and creativity all blend together in a uniquely hectic way.
Now I curate community locally using crafting + bedlam. I love teaching folks how to make things as a way to manage their mental health, unplug from the nonsense, and stay more connected with the people they love, with their surroundings, and with themselves.

Glitter Factory DSM is my love letter to Des Moines and all of the millenials who just need a way to NOT. Let's be real. We all need a little less excitement in our lives right now.

So pull up a chair and stab something. Legally. Ideally fabric or whatever. It totally helps. And you deserve it.



Let's do epic shit.
