Garden signs
I work parttime in a long established shoe store (been around for 56 years) .A few years ago I made a garden sign for a customer who found out that I tole painted...since that time she has been after me to make another one for her...I just never got around to it.Well time has moved on and now the first sign needs replaced ,so she asked if I would make another one to replace it and the second one as well.
She wanted one to say" Leonas seedfood buffet", and the other to say" Thistledew acres."
This is what I finally came up with. I am always a little nervous doing commisioned pieces. ( What I am picturing and what the customer is thinking are usually two different things...) Will they like it?? I tend to get very attached to the things I make so hope that they like it.
Anyway I left it at the store for her convenience and she picked it up the other day...I wish I could seen her reaction...surely she wouldn't have bought it otherwise...
