Personalized Gifts
The popular online print on demand shop ZAZZLE offers just that.
It took me a while to edit some of my products that I thought were available to be personalized, and apparently were not. I created a collection for these products and will keep adding more as I go along.
Its a real shame that the South African Rand is so unfavorable against the dollar, otherwise I would be tempted to buy a personalized gift and send it to my family in Holland and the UK. We are having to pay 14.2 Rand to buy $1.00. So you can imagine what even a postcard will cost us. The only advantage in this otherwise corrupt currency control is that any royalties I earn that gets paid into my PayPal account buys me more here in South Africa.
I hope that there are a lot of succulent gardeners out there that would love to own the T shirt I designed for them. I've written an article about my own fascination with succulents titled: The Hanging Gardens of Clovelly Thanks for reading my post. Nadine. #nadinemay

"If you're really passionate about what you do, but it's not going to make you a lot of money, should you still do it?” My reply would be YES. Keep dong what you love to do. Read my blog post titled :Earning while loving how you do it.
There are two genre designs that seem to be the most popular so far. My African designs and my Anton Pieck incorporated designs.
What have I learned from this?
Read my full article on this topic titled: My-most-Popular-Designs to read more about branding your own graphic signature.
Because I'm an international designer and all the print on demand websites like Zazzle, Society6,Redbubble and Cafepress are based either in the USA or Australia, for me who lives in South Africa a different approach was in order.
Combining photos taken by me, and adding graphic illustrations or scanned images with other elements from my personal library of images that I have collected over the years for my many book cover designs, I started to have great fun incorporating these into the designs for the online shops that I have published on my menu bar.
Thanks for reading my post.
