Hi everyone,

My art is mainly photography and photomontage. I am wondering if anyone has any input on other types of products that could feature my artwork that might be popular. For example, tiles, mugs, shirts, pillows, pendants, and the like. I'm trying to get an idea of whether or not people would enjoy seeing my artwork on some objects of some sort.

Thanks for any input you can give!

I think decorative tiles would be a good idea! Offering matted and framed prints would be cool too. Mating and framing can be done by hand fairly cheaply.

Thanks, Kristin. Framed prints are fragile and expensive to ship, but I am planning on offering matted photos soon in 5x7 with an 8x10 mat and 8x10 print with an 11x14 mat.

Your photos are gorgeous! Blank greeting cards would feature your work beautifully! I'd order some so I had blank cards on hand for thank you's... Very Happy

Thanks a lot, shhdesigns! Smile I am considering ordering some professional quality blank notecards with a little mat opening for a photo in them. Do you think that this would be a nice way to do it, or should I look into printing cards? I like the idea of a mat with a real photo suitable for framing should the recipient so choose but I am open to suggestion! Smile Thank you! Very Happy
