Results of our first ART SALE

With renewed determination, we are adding more signs and making another attempt at our ART sale.  Yes, we need more balloons.
This is what we learned:
Sign saying 1 mile was too far away from the sale.  Even if people could read it they have short attention spans. The balloons as you can see had issues but they did make us laugh.  Saturday was not a good day for the sale.  We will hold the sale again possibly on a Sunday afternoon, hopefully getting the attention of Sunday drivers and people heading home from up north.  We will put the word out when a date is set.  So, was our first sale successful?  Well yes, we learned A LOT!

Buddy's Summer Home - A Real Work of Art!



One of our barn quilts is displayed on this summer home overlooking the water.  It was given as a Christmas gift in December.   If you look closely in this photo you will see fresh snow on the ground.  The unpredictable Wisconsin weather did not stop our customers from hanging their new work of art in April. 








This is Buddy.  In his portrait Buddy is watching to see who enters his home.  Our barn quilts are hand-painted on wood and made for either interior or exterior use.  For an estimate please contact us at BarnQuiltPetPortraits.blogspot.com or suerasmussen13.gmail.com
