Artist Julia Persson-Morrill has had a life long interest in Dala Horses but didn't start to carve and paint them until just a few years ago. Some of the wooden horses are sold out of her studio, she can often be seen working on them out in her garden. She is happy to show the horses or share her skills with visitors all summer.

Dala Horse sign
I had this sign made in my Zazzle store. It shows 4 of my different traditional style dala horses and I hang some of the ornaments on the bottom of it in case anyone walking by might be interested in them. I haven't sold any this way yet but it may come in handy as I carve and paint them at my worktable out in the yard
I'm happy to say that I sold some of the dala horse fabric that I designed on the internet. That may
work for you too.
The nice thing about designing merchandise with the dala horses that I create is that long after I've sold the actual horse it can still make me some money and make it possible to keep carving and painting more of them without having to worry about the cost of my art supplies.
When everything works as it should they pay for themselves and give me even more opportunities to keep creating new designs.
