just thought I would post a couple of samples other than the "i" from the layout on my last post.I have actually done the COWBOY in a frame for my Dad & stepmom for Christmas and as a giveaway for a fundraiser.
The NATURE is something I just put together as a sample. I love the idea of doing last names for a family room; or maybe some of the inspirational words that are popular right now. {Think "live, laugh, love" or "Inspire", "Faith", there are so many possibilities.}
Everyone has come up with some awesome suggestions...I will have a hard time choosing. I really like the suggested names using the word "text" - it sounds modern and catchy.
Please keep leaving comments with suggestions...I'm going to leave this open until Saturday night.
Oh, I have ordered Kim's alphabet for her classroom and she is planning to take a photo of them once they are up...I cannot wait to see it!
I'm so incredibly excited at the thought of a possible "side" venture in photography.Several of my blog readers probably know that I have a collection of B&W letters that I have taken from nature or cowboy/country/farm items. Although I cannot take credit for originally thinking of this idea, as there are a plethora of places online that one can order these from, I have been trying to do something a little different from the ones I've seen.For close to a year now, I have been collecting letters with my camera lens, and I have given some of these framed items as gifts and giveaways, but in the back of my mind and in my prayers I have wondered about the possibility of turning this into some kind of side business.
After making this layout for a challenge on TAIF,
and posting it in my gallery over at SIStv one of my fave "SISters" over there - KimM - asked about buying a whole set of my letters to put up in her kindergarten classroom!
How cool is that????!!!! I can answer that...it is WAY cool!She has been so sweet and encouraging to me throughout the process back and forth over email and because of her enthusiasm - I really think I will get serious and actually set something up to sell these photos. I really have been praying about something I could do with my photography and I truly feel like Kim has been the source of an answer...I know, I'm getting all deep, but it is so weird sometimes how God can work through others.I must say my friends and family have been encouraging me all along and I don't want to take anything away from them, but when someone else who doesn't really have a vested interest in my life is so kind and positive to me it just grabbed my attention!Now, I need everyone's help!
I need a clever name for my "business" - my plan right now is to set up an Etsy shop and see how that goes. So I need something about letters/alphabet/words and nature/country...etc.... something like "farm font" or another cute catchy name!
Please leave me a comment on this post with your ideas - as many as you have - and I will award a RAK (random act of kindness) if I use your idea.
You can guess what the RAK will be, right!? ;)
