Horse Designs on Various Themes


I thought I'd start on a sewing and quilting theme.




Next I decided to re-visit the Iris theme based on some wooden horses that i designed, carved and painted several years ago.

The first thing I'll do with these is put them on rubber stamps in my zazzle store and then I'll explore the other design possibilities from there.

Don't forget Christmas, that has a lot of possibilities.

Getting Started Selling Your Dala Horse Designs


At the top of the page is a photo of a wooden horse I designed, carved and painted several years ago so I thought I'd design a few more loosely based on that design.



It might be fun to see how far I can take the idea. This one will be used on a line of baby clothes that I'm designing. Please respect that and don't compete with me using my design. Create your own and the skies the limit for you.


It's hard out there for those of us starting out. We need to help each other.

It's easy to start once you have your own designs there are many companies where you can put your designs on products for sale. I use zazzle and have tried cafe press, there are many other companies like that. You'd just need to search for them. Good Luck!

In the meantime my patchwork horses are appearing on baby products and other things in my zazzle stores.

Another fun subject that may sell well is Christmas designs.



This is the first time  in nearly 10 years that I've tried coming up with a new Christmas design. As you can see I've left a lot of space to keep designing until I come up with a horse that I really like. I suggest you do the same. Just Keep Trying.
