But I think it all paid off. The Meadow Trail color definitely goes well with the front look of your house. It looks warm and welcoming. Unlike the dusty blue color, this rustic green shade is perfect for the house.

Looks great so far!<br /><br />In terms of pricing...<br /><br />Pricing is something that I think everyone struggles with at first. I used to own a brick and mortar shop selling handmade goods and art, and the biggest struggle I had was pricing my own work. And then I had every artist and crafter asking me for tips on how to price THEIR work. It's tough. I tend to underprice, just because, like you, I want people like me to be able to afford things. So, my rule is this:<br /><br />Make sure you cover the costs of your supplies, add a little more on for your time, and then think about the number you've come up with. Is it too low based on the size of the piece and the amount of attachment you have to it? If so, add a little more. If not, let it go. You'd be surprised at how many people will actually approach you and complain that your prices are TOO LOW! That was a regular thing in my shop...never thought I'd see that happen, but it did. The way I see it, if people see low prices, they're more apt to buy more than one item. And that happens. A lot. WIN!<br /><br />I guess what I'm trying to get at here is to price things as low as possible so people will be able to buy your work (and more of it), but not so low that you're not making a profit. Make sense? Once you start doing it, it'll be much easier for you.katehttp://peonyandbee.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19474547.post-76165534886063685702012-07-17T02:04:49.291-05:002012-07-17T02:04:49.291-05:00Wow excellent piece of work very inspiring!I appre...Wow excellent piece of work very inspiring!I appreciate your creative work keep it up..PSD To Wordpresshttp://www.webdesignbizz.com/categories-wordpressnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19474547.post-2697628477338195572012-07-16T20:40:03.120-05:002012-07-16T20:40:03.120-05:00Hi!

A few entries ago you were concerned about the amount of space to fill. here's one thought: do a really nice title in your style, and/or have section titles or other text on the wall, with works in between. Tell a good story with the text, and no one will know that you're filling space.<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br />karinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19474547.post-26556121853632127882012-06-28T10:03:50.169-05:002012-06-28T10:03:50.169-05:00Talk about your art show baby all you want since t...Talk about your art show baby all you want since this is an art blog at it's core.
