 SUPPORT THE ARTS!!!

Hi everyone. I’m taking a quick survey to decide whether or not my art business idea would work. I got bored the other night painting on canvas, so I took a wine glass and painted on it. It looked HOT.

Here’s the idea: I get a bunch of glasses and mugs in all different shapes. I show you, and you pick the one you like. Then you send me a picture of your pet, or any other animal you’d like, and I paint it for you, then send it to you. I use high quality glass-glazes which are non toxic and dishwasher safe, so you could use this glass as both a decoration, and for practical use.

If I charged $5 per hand painted glass with your pet, or favorite animal, would you guys be interested in buying one from me? Please reply, and remember - support the arts.

Hey herpgirl
I love your idea. I’d like to see some of your stuff (here). Also - don’t sell yourself short - consider a starting price point of $10.00 per object instead of $5.
You might also consider setting up a cafepress.com store with your original art - all you have to do is upload images and then pick out what to offer, and do your own promoting - cafepress does the rest, including shipping for you, and they just send you a check for whatever you’ve sold
