D and 3 - D Finger Nail Painting, Stick Your Fingers In Here - Small Niche for the Artistic Painter

How would you like to be a finger nail painter, or sell your artwork to a network hosting nail art in the fog seat you ' d get a royalty each stint someone chose your painting to be printed upon their nails, perhaps $. 10 but it would add up, consider people have ten fingers and ten toes, a few people 1 / 3000 have 12 each, it is a specific genetic trait which comes up every once in a while, perhaps a mistake in the DNA or perhaps a genetic propel - back? Anyway, let me paint a picture for you how all this might work, let ' s talk.

Consider if you will that you already have a collection of paintings, perhaps they are on canvas, and you ' ve taken pictures of them and turned them into digital renderings as well. You may have put them on your blogs, posted them online, or maybe you are selling reprints of these works as a way to make money. This would be a similar, consider it a future additional venue. Your paintings, at least those which would lend themselves well to fingernails would be reduced in size using digital imagery, and fed into a repository of choices for those getting their nails done.

Those who paint nails at the local nail salon would allow their customers to choose what they would like on their fingernail as they scanned through an online catalog which was set up by category. Once they chose the proper picture, they would stick their finger in a little machine which would size up their fingernail and the amount of space involved and allow the customer on a small screen to see what it will look like once it is painted on. If the customer decides to go with that, the machine would clamp onto their finger ever so slightly, and a small set of suction cups would rise from underneath keeping their finger in place.

The digital printer which would be a 2 - D printer however it would be printing onto a 3 - D curved surface in this case which would put that picture on to the fingernail, allow it to air dry for a minute or two, then apply the acrylic coating, and perhaps some accents such as small diamond like tiny laboratory produced jaded pebbles in the appropriate places.

Those artists who specialize in paintings which would be reduced in size would begin to understand what would look best on fingernails and paint their paintings appropriately, or slightly modify their current series of paintings with slightly less detail, and the potential for extra accents, and specific colors which might go with common wardrobe items. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it.

Painting Business - How To Make $30 - $70 Per Hour Doing Small Simple Drywallplaster Repair Jobs

Making $350 - $500 a stretch whereas a house painter is not owing to easy thanks to some would have you believe in the residential / commercial realm - consistent if you are a larger contractor with a crew. But if you know a few drywall / plaster repair secrets, making this courteous of money is indubitable possible. I know. I have done it. Let me unravel.

Thanks to a painting business lessor over the years, I have found a niche in my business locale people will have problems with their drywall or plaster and they are totally clueless on how to fix it themselves. Assured, you will come across those who tried, but the point influence always tainted out to be butt - deformed!

A lot of the drywall in homes built from the 1980? s and all the way up to today have issues. Things like soak damage, loose recording seams, nail pops, etc. One daily basis for weaken damage is whereas of a leaky upstairs shower.

Again, it is not uncommon for a new home to have a problem leak somewhere on the roof that is maybe letting water in. The water travels down the wall and wrecks part of the ceiling and wall in a lower room in a short period of time.

Maybe the customer wants to sell their house. They get the roof leak fixed and now this is where you and I come in. You have done some free advertising like word - of - mouth, you get referrals, you have a small ad in the phone book or from online advertising, etc. and you get a call.

Next you go over and look at the problem. In their front foyer you see a couple of minor tape seams that are loose and a small section of textured ceiling that needs to be fixed and re - duplicated using a common crows foot texture. The customer has touch up paint left over for it. They are motivated to get it fixed so they can sell the house and buy another one.

You eyeball it as about a days labor. You offer to repair it for say around $335. 00. They say yes and you schedule it for the next day or whenever.

You come the first day for about an hour and tear out the bad, do a quick deep - fill and put a fan on it overnight to help it dry. Then you go back the next day and you spend 6 hours re - coating, and drying it with a heat gun or hairdryer etc. You do the job in 7 hours total and your net profit is $320 out of $335 because materials needed was basically just some drywall compound, gas to get back and forth and they had leftover paint.

Other scenarios may be older homes that have broken plaster. These can be surprisingly easy and fun to repair. Again, they call you, you go over and look at it. You count up the time ( 8 maybe 10 hrs. or so ) and materials ( usually dirt - cheap ) and you give them a figure of $500 - $600 because of the size of the repair.

They give you the go ahead and you pencil them into your schedule. You finish the job in 9 hours and you make 95 % profit. Other common plaster repairs may be large cracks in plaster ceilings. A common problem that can be easy to repair if you know how.

Other common drywall jobs may be texturing walls and ceilings. Two guys working together can make some good money at this. There are also small jobs hanging and finishing sheet rock in basements or garages. They may want you to paint it afterwards as well.

People do not know anything about drywall / plaster repair. They expect it to be somewhat costly. Jobs look more complicated than they are but since you know how to do them its duck soup for you!

You go in and spend 1 - 3 hours tearing out the old part like a surgeon, patching and doing a deep fill. You go back the next day for a few more hours, maybe back again a third day to finish, paint, etc. and get paid.

If you look in your phone book you will see small display ads under drywall or plaster repair that say " We Love Small Jobs " or " No Job Too Small ". Sure they like small jobs - this is where the easy money is. Small, 7 - 10 hour repair jobs that command $30 - $70 per hour.

If this type of business interests you, you can do it as a profitable sideline, or full - time business. You can have a buddy or your wife or one of your kids be your partner as well.
