Austins WearABLE Art
Welcome to Austin's WearABLE Art
"We'll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world of my creation
What we'll see will defy
Explanation ...
There's no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be"
"Pure Imagination"
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
Austin's WearABLE Art sells quality handcrafted beaded jewelry designed and created by Austin Wear. Austin is a young adult with autism. Making beaded jewelry is immensely beneficial to him, those who wear it, and the organizations that receive a portion of all jewelry sales.
Beaded jewelry created by Austin Wear. In 2016 by chance, Austin made a beaded bracelet. Immediately he was drawn to this activity that uses creativity, making patterns, and counting.
Making beaded bracelets morphed into a behavior management strategy to help with the challenges of autism and diagnosed OCD. Austin's obsession and subsequent compulsive behavior are primarily counting, coding, and making patterns. His jewelry is a productive outlet for those needs. He enjoys creating and is encouraged by the praise he receives and requests for what he makes. It is a fun activity. Beading has not only helped him manage anxiety, which triggers severe behaviors, but it has given him purpose and dignity.
In 2019 Austin's mother founded Austin's WearABLE Art and began selling his products online and directly to customers. Starting with the first sale, 10% of jewelry sales have been donated to non-profit organizations with a mission to enrich the lives of people with disabilities. A list of organizations is on our GIVING BACK page.
