When I painted the first set of these groomsmen mugs for a friend's May wedding, I had no idea of the market I was tapping into. I was thrilled to be there as the guys opened their gifts on rehearsal night and hear their shocked reactions.... "woah, that's my face" "it's a cartoon me!" "ooooo she painted me more handsome!" The paint I use is an enamel paint that is baked, which makes the glasses water (and yes, beer) resistant, and the guys were quick to put them to great use!
I just tallied up my numbers and am so excited to say that since the end of May, I have finished over 70 glasses! And.... the even more shocking/exciting news is that I have 147 glasses (beer steins, wine glasses, and shot glasses) officially on the books! Woah :) I guess it's a good thing I finally took the leap and quit my day job to work on Limefish full time, right :)
