Turn ChatGPT art made from your prompts into a limited-edition gift set and matching merch for your shop
Ben Luna, owner of Workshop Underground, a handmade jewelry boutique on South Street in Philadelphia's Grad Hospital neighborhood who previously oversaw the Metropolitan Museum of Art's product design department for exhibitions, in Philadelphia magazine
He experimented with ChatGPT to bring virtual design into his work. For a limited-edition Birthstone & Birthflower gift set, ChatGPT created a black-and-white zebra-pattern birth flower print from his prompts, framed and paired with a natural birthstone necklace in 14K gold; a new flower print comes each month.

ChatGPT
The problem
A jewelry boutique wanted something new for its 10th anniversary beyond the handmade rings, necklaces and earrings it already sells.
What happened
He was pleased enough with the prints to make matching merch, including tote bags and puzzles. Sets start at $295. No sales figures are given.

How to set it up yourself
- What Workshop Underground did: ChatGPT made a birth flower print in a black-and-white zebra pattern from the owner's prompts, sold framed in a monthly gift set with a birthstone necklace, then on tote bags and puzzles.
- Pick one idea that ties a product you already sell to a theme people buy as gifts (birth months, zodiac, local landmarks) and decide on one fixed art style for the whole series.
- Generate the first print in ChatGPT with the prompt below, keep the prompt, and reuse it each month with only the subject changed so the series matches.
- Order one framed print and one merch sample from your printer to check the line work before you announce the set, and make sure you are comfortable with OpenAI's terms on using generated images commercially.
Copy-paste prompt

Keep the style identical to this description so a monthly series matches: {YOUR FIXED STYLE NOTES}.We set up one AI automation in your tools, live within 48 hours of getting access, for $197.
