What's next!?

[PearlesPainting]

Now that The big gift giving holidays have passed...what do I create to appeal for all occasions?
I guess Valentines Day is the next sort of Big Holiday coming...after New Years Eve.
I am hoping whatever I come up with will sell....and be cherished.
I would love some suggestions or ideas...

Your shop is beautiful! Something with shamrocks for St. Pat's? I start thinking about summer and the beach now....something nautical?

I'm going to regroup and look at my store and see what I really should work on, that is what is next for me.

As for a theme, I don't know. If I were you I'd go for some great color combinations, or something that can be played up at different times of the year. Like green - it could be Christmas, or St Patricks, or Summery (think green grass or flowers) or fruity (like limes...) or leaves, etc...

Also, jump on trends, and they can influence you. I need to be better at that.

I would definitely say, summer for sure. Valentine's Day seems a little fleeting, but making things for that now would help have things ready for when the time comes... which is just around the corner!

For Valentines, how about doing your "Dotted Heart" in tints, shades, and tones of reds; and, then, try some combinations of red, white, black, metallic gold and silver and copper. You could come up with several different hearts. Also, hearts within the hearts design would be fun, too.
