Howworks

Handmade from Upcycled Materials

Every lovebeing work starts as someone else's discarded clothing. Through hand-stitching, patching, embroidery, painting, and reconstruction, each work is transformed into a one-of-a-kind wearable art. No machines, no factories — just hands, thread, and vision.

Dropped at Thrift Stores

Finished works are donated to Goodwill and Savers locations in Western New York. They go on the racks at the store's regular thrift prices — a few dollars for a work of art that took hours to create. The thrift stores act as distribution outlets, and anyone can discover a lovebeing work while shopping.

Scan the Tag, Claim Your Work

Every lovebeing work has a handmade tag with a QR code. After purchasing from the thrift store, scan the code to visit lovebeing.world. Create an account and register the work as yours. You're now the verified owner of a 1/1 work of art.

Resell at Your Price

As the owner, you can list your lovebeing work for resale at any price you choose. $50 or $5,000 — it's your art, your call. Accept payment through PayPal, Venmo, Cash App, or cryptocurrency. No credit cards, no middleman percentages. Ship it directly with built-in tracking.

More Artists, More Cities

lovebeing is starting in Western New York, but the model is built to grow. Eventually, more artists around the world will create lovebeing works and drop them at thrift stores in their own communities. A global network of handmade fashion, distributed through the stores already in your neighborhood.

Multi-chain checkout + provenance

Phase 1 includes contract-ready checkout intents for Ethereum, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Monero, and Tezos, plus unified inventory APIs. This allows digital and physical works to connect to provenance and escrow-compatible flows as deployment expands.

API endpoints: /api/inventory/unified and /api/contracts/checkout-intent
