Only a month until my art goes up in Willow Glen Coffee Shop! In addition to having my paintings up, I’ll also be selling cards and bookmarks that I’ve made from my paintings. I was trying to think of a creative way to display the items available, and I thought of making a painting of some trees and hanging the cards and bookmarks up on a real clothesline! I love the way it turned out!
The painting I made is a 20 x 20. For the clothesline, I used white cloth stem wire from the floral section of JoAnn’s. I figured it would be more sturdy than string. I got the miniature clothespins from the craft section of Walmart. I like this arrangement because if I ever come up with new cards / bookmarks, I can just take these ones down and rearrange.
The little bird in the lower left is holding a sign with the prices. The sign is a separate piece as well, so if I ever want to change it, I can just make a new sign.
Within the next few days I’ll be figuring out how my packaging for the greeting cards is going to look, so I’ll post some pics once I get that figured out!
