Mistletoe Market

If you haven't become a fan on my Painted Present page on facebook, please be sure to! I actually have so much more of my products on that page!!! I wanted to share a picture of a booth that I had at the Mistletoe Market in Marietta that I attended in October. The Jr. League of Cobb/Marietta puts this market on every year so their was a great turn out and I got alot of new customers from it!!! I had a lot of pre-painted items for sale but I mostly had canvases and samples of my work expecting people to place custom orders. That is where I was wrong! I sold almost everything that I brought- mostly ornaments, step stools, and frames - and only got a few custom orders! I personalized each item while they shopped and they picked it up when they left. It definitely kept me busy but it was lots of fun!!!

Preview and Prices

You can see much more of my previous work at http://www.paintedpresent.com/ but here's a little look of a couple of things, along with my pricing. I base all of my canvases on size - so I paint what you want for the following price - 16x20 is $65, 24x30 is $85, 30x40 is $125, 18x18 is $65, 24x24 is $75. I also do a lot of monogramming and appliques and people all over have been sending me tshirts to add an applique to. My monogramming is $8, my applique patches are $12, and an applique which also includes a name monogrammed underneath is $15. I can also provide the shirt, bib, burp cloth, etc. but can give you those prices if needed.

Welcome!

Hello! My name is Anna Knight and I am the founder of The Painted Present, an online boutique full of hand painted gifts for children (and now adults!) I started my company almost 5 years ago and it has grown from a couple of products for sale, to a huge variety of over 30 different products (www.paintedpresent.com)! My website has been a great tool for me, but I find that most people do not order what they see on my website. Almost everything that I paint is customized for the customer so people will get their ideas on my website, but we will paint something completely different. I think by having this blog, I will be able to show more of my work and keep you updated on new things that I am making/painting and events that I am attending. I know this will be much easier and quicker to update so more of my work can be shown. Please continue to check it out and see all of the new things that I have been working on!
