It's Been a While

Yes, it has been a long, long time since my last blog entry. Where have I been? Well, I got super busy over the holidays with all three of my shops as well as custom portraits orders. After the holidays I started focusing on my fine art and jewelry. I have been trying to decide if I should retire the Painted for You business, since going in so many different directions is a challenge.
For now I've decided to start clearing out items in my shop. Check out my magnets, they are a steal! They would make great Easter basket goodies!
Then, well we shall see. I have some bigs ideas for some new products, we'll just have to see how I can handle the juggling act. ;-) So many ideas, just not enough hours in the day!

Halloween!

Pumpkin To Do List Tile
(use with dry erase marker)
It is hard to believe it will soon be time for the kids to go back to school, fall will be here, and it will be time to decorate for Halloween!
I'm beginning to list some Halloween and fall themed items in my Etsy store. I am also getting ready for the Centerville Pumpkin Festival that will be here in Richmond. Even more exciting - Etsy will be sponsoring the Festival!
Hand painted Magnets available in my Etsy shop.

How about a game of tic-tac-toe?

More of my hand painted magnets, but this time with a bit of a twist! Tic tac toe magnet sets! Perfect for those long summer car trips. These hand painted magnets stick to their container so they won't get lost in the back of your minivan!
I just loved painting these dragonflies and frogs in two of my favorite colors. I am going to paint a set for my boys to take along for our next dinner out.
I designed this set for those "girlie" girls who love their purses and shoes and of course had to paint them pink!!!

And More Magnets!

As promised, here are some magnets which are a little less "girly". For the boys or girls. I had so much fun painting this outer space set. The little green alien just makes me giggle.

Both sets are currently for sale at my Etsy Shop: http://www.paintedforyou.etsy.com

Fun New Magnets

1" painted ceramic tile magnets. You can get these cute little bugs as a set of 3, or get 6 or more in a fun metal carrying tin. Mix and match get several of the same - you decide!
6 magnets of your choice. You can get letters of a person's name and flowers. Extra magnets can be purchased for longer names. Up to 12 magnets can fit in a tin.


I had so much fun coming up with the idea for and then painting these cute little magnets. I've got ideas for more . . . . . so stay tuned!
