My First Paid Order

I am so happy to report that I am having a bit of success at selling my silly little painted people.

A friend who saw pics on of them on facebook ordered 36 dolls to match her entire family! And I just took another order for a custom family from someone who found me on etsy! Yippee!

Its not a flood of work, but it is a beginning and certainly enough to give me confidence to go on.

My first customers have not given my pictures to work with, just a few descriptive phrases, so there is a lot of guesswork involved and I hope that I've done well for them.

 Here are some pictures of the first of the customs:

 S plays golf













 P plays guitar, CS loves cooking, C love bikes and horse, L likes bugs.






the two cooks:




B. the hunter and S. likes to read


 R. loved motorcycles and M. (all I got for her was: brown, olive, cactus- so this what I did)
