Anyway if I stay with this, you wil see all facets of my creativity, some people think I am good, but I think I might be average or below average in my crafty pursuits. I have always wanted to be an artist, but failed miserable all through Jr. High and High school, so I married an exceptionally talented artist, OMG he is unbelievable what he can do in 5 minutes with a pencil would take me all day to do, what he can do on a computer in 10 minutes would take me 3 days to do, and what he can do with a camera, I could never do. I do like rubber stamping and make tons of cards and I have begun branching out ot other paper crafts and using frames and other media, I am stepping out of my trying to copy the work I like phase to actually creating my own, this started last year when I decided I wanted to paint a martini set for my sisters birthday. I then got several orders for martini sets, which moved to wine glasses and over Christmas it was Christmas plates. They were so much fun to do but I am taking a break from that until school is out and then I plan on making tons of stuff to try to sell on Etsy and if that does not work I will set up at a craft fair. People say I could sell my stuff, but I really find that hard to believe! I mean I would not pay for it, but then I know I could create it. So we will see if people buy my stuff. I have sold glassware and a few framed art work and most recently I sold a set of 2 hand painted wine glasses for $60 I was floored...I did not think they were that amazing, unfortunately I did not get pics of them but I have pics of a few others. when I figure all this out, I will post them.
Well, for now, that is all Iw ill work on figuring this out.
Sparkle Wishes,
Heather
