I need a hashtag for Buy Supplies for Artists project

I need a hashtag to indicate that you are an artist in need of supplies.

I need a hashtag for my project:

You are an artist in need of supplies. You say that and include this hashtag in a social media post. Then, you include your online retailer wishlist link in your profile information so anyone who wants can buy you supplies.

My only idea here is for one online retailer who allows you to keep your address private so the buyer doesn't know your address. This is an essential part of my project because it is not going to work to try to hook people up to exchange cash or anything like that. Too complicated. And fraught with possibilities of abuse.

I only know one online retailer who does this but I will look for more.

I originally thought of doing this for bead artists and I could only come up with the hashtag #BeadME but don't like that too much and would like to maybe expand to artists using other supplies.

I'd like to just have one hashtag, not a hashtag for each kind of supply.

I wanted something with patron but patreon kinda confused the issue there, #modernmedici maybe? #supplyme works like your bead one on the other hand.

Actually, esprit descalier and all that, but I think the answer is #suprisesupplies

#SuppliesMFer, to tie it all back to Metafilter?
