Miss Elizabeth's Childrens Boutique

Hey friends!  I have exciting news!!!!

The Peanut Paintshop is now being sold in Miss Elizabeth's Children's Boutique!  Miss Elizabeth's is a brand new store to Bluffton that sells mostly upscale consignment and new clothing.  They carry super cute clothes, bows, accessories and now...art from The Peanut Paintshop!  I'm so excited and honored that they would think enough of my stuff to want it in their store.  Super cool!  If you're a SC local, you should check it out!

For those of you not in the area, feel free to order anything below directly from me at thepeanutpaintshop@yahoo.com, and you can always keep informed at 

Onto the paintings!...

Here is the BRAND NEW..."HOUSE RULES" canvas.  
This is a great way to remind your family members or students of the rules they (and you, too) should abide by!  As with all paintings, this can be customized to your liking.  This is a 18x24"canvas for $80. 



Another view...cause we all know crooked photos are sooooo cool. 



At Miss Elizabeth's, I've displayed 4 custom canvas examples.  Each canvas is a different size, a different style, there are 3 different fonts and over 40 colors to choose from.  In essence, it's a "Design your Art" type of thing.  

Here's Lucy:
Style: Multi Dots
Font: Lucy font (also seen on Ava canvas)
Size: 18x24"



The Finley
Style: Windows
Font: Finley font
Size: 16x20"



The Ava
Style: Color Block
Font: Lucy Font
Size: 10x20"



The Jack
Style: Stripes
Font: Jack font
Size: 8x16"



And even though this isn't for sale and it's just the color choice canvas, I would probably buy it because it makes me happy.



So that's it with the custom canvas section of the Miss Elizabeth's items.

A "Twofer"

Also known as a "two for one".

A frequent flyer at The Peanut Paintshop requested a door hanger that would serve two purposes:

1.  A name plaque



and 

2.  An "if you knock on my door an wake my kids up, I'll box you in the face" sign. 


It's wooden.
It's 8x10".
It flips. 
It has a decorative handle. 
It can be yours for $40.  Personalization included!

Newbies

Hey y'all!  It's been a while.  The Peanut Paintshop has been on the road!  Thank you for continuing to place orders and keep me busy...even when I travel.  

Here's the most popular name I have painted.  I think this is at least the 4th Isabelle.  The design is new, but the name is now commonplace in the Paintshop.  I no longer have to look at how to spell it.  And the name is clearly popular because of it's awesomeness. 
 Here's "Isabelle: Part IV":
6x18"
$30


"Isabelle Part IV" was made to match this bedding...
It's called "Katie" from Pottery Barn Kids.  Cute! (It comes in purple, too.)



"Sweet Caroline"
8x24"
$45
I really like the plaid on this!  Never painted plaid before. A first, but surely not a last.  I added clips to this to make it a photo holder but forgot to take a picture.  oops.



Square Crab
20"
$60
These crabs have become popular, and I'm so glad.  Because I love painting them.  They're fun and messy and very colorful.  Kind of like Play Doh.



Another view.  There were two smaller paintings to match these.  One was a seashell.  The other a starfish.  Again, forgot to take pictures.  



"Cross"
8x10"
$25



Given as a baptism gift.  Love the yellow and black.  Very bumble bee.




Here's to bright colors, less pollen, and warmer temperatures.
God Bless and Happy Easter!

Spring is HERE!


Do you appreciate seasons?  I surely do!  In my short stint at this painting thing, the colors that I get to use tend to match the seasons.  This week has been all things bright, cheery and SPRINGY!

First up...

"The Dreamer"


These colors are so awesome in and of themselves, but on the same canvas, they're even better.


18x36" 
$80



The colors and quote were hand picked by the customer for her daughter's bedroom.  What a sweet quote!  Gotta love ol' Shel.



Where does the sidewalk end?



The 2nd fun springy painting is...

"The Willow"
8x24" photo holder
$50



And, no, these boys are not Willow:)



Here's the naked version...



Along with vibrant colors, what else tends to occur in Spring?  That's right!  WEDDINGS!

Here's an "Established" painting to match the wedding invite.
10" square
$30



Symmetry is my friend.  This is a perfectly balanced monogram.  Pure bliss.  For nerds, anyway.  I hope you like your gift, J and J "M"!



These next two get me excited because...The Peanut Paintshop is going international!!!

These puppies are heading to Belize.  Wish I was :(

My instructions were to use "islandy" colors and use these phrases.  



Waves are fun to paint.  Hopefully they will be fun to look at, too!



When I handed this one over to it's new owner, she said, "Now, let's see if they obey it."  If so, I might have to put one in my house.



Thanks for reading and keeping me busy.  Painting is such a fun hobby!  Keep the great ideas coming.

Oh, and Happy (almost) Spring.
