I grew up hating my name. I still don’t like it, actually. In my generation, the only “Molly’s” were in my reading books: cows and goats always seemed to have that name. Not one girl. This held true all the way through college and beyond. Imagine my…
Excellent, Molly! This should be required reading before any of our gents even think about going shopping!!! lol as always!
My apologies to all Etsy ornament makers--my latest blog entry was aimed at RETAIL ornaments bought by husbands for their wives for Christmas! Any handcrafted ornament would be welcome at my house! I thought I had better say this right now, because…
The Christmas shopping season officially has begun! For the men that I know well, Christmas shopping is a duty that is almost impossible to live up to. For these men, and for all the men out there who feel helpless and lost in any store other than L…
All around America, in kitchens and dining rooms this Thursday, people will gather to give thanks. Many of us make it a ritual, going around the table reciting what we are most thankful for. What a wonderful custom! However, there IS an element of p…
Hi! I am an old woman from Dayton, Ohio, who loves Etsy. I am most decidedly NOT an artist. The last thing I tried to make was in pottery class, and it collapsed on the wheel. But I do have a little writing talent, and so I produce a blog right here…

He is talkative, svelte, and handsome. His blue eyes are piercing. He is a charmer! He walked into my life, took one look at me, and I was hopelessly in love! He thinks he is the coolest cat around, and actually, he is kind of conceited. But he know…
THE REMAINS OF THE DAY
There is a reason why my house has a “servants” room in the attic. Of course, the attic is neither cooled nor heated, and it has never been. But there is a rudely finished room up there, with walls, a hardwood floor, a nice d…

MONIKERS
I grew up hating my name. I still don’t like it, actually. In my generation, the only “Molly’s” were in my reading books: cows and goats always seemed to have that name. Not one girl. This held true all the way through college and beyond. Imagine my surprise when the name “Molly” became popular in the 90’s. Now I run into little “Molly’s” everywhere. There is security in having a popular name. No one makes fun of you or it, or asks you where your name comes from, etc. I have spent some time pond… Continue

WHAT WOMEN WANT
The Christmas shopping season officially has begun! For the men that I know well, Christmas shopping is a duty that is almost impossible to live up to. For these men, and for all the men out there who feel helpless and lost in any store other than Lowe’s, I am going to present my TIPS FOR SHOPPING FOR FEMALES. The first thing for men to keep in mind is that what women love 364 days a year does not necessarily mean that they want to see it under the tree. Women want to feel special and f… Continue

THE LESSER BLESSINGS
All around America, in kitchens and dining rooms this Thursday, people will gather to give thanks. Many of us make it a ritual, going around the table reciting what we are most thankful for. What a wonderful custom! However, there IS an element of political correctness involved. EVERYONE is thankful for family, love, pets, abundance, good fortune, and good will. But I am willing to bet thousands that there is not one woman in America who would be REALLY honest and say she is thankful fo… Continue

PLOT LINES
I have been encouraged lately by many people to write a book. I am not up to it yet, but I am ruminating on various potential themes. I have about three or four recurring dramas that I play out in my head for entertainment, and perhaps one of these has in it the germ of a novel. You can be the judge.
THE ECCENTRIC MYSTERY. Someone is murdered. A dectective is hired to solve the crime, but this particular detective has some personality quirks that make solving crimes particularl… Continue

Sarah Kirchner said… - Hi Molly,
You can get a feel for the kind of prices I'd ask for at my Etsy shop:
http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7801377
Also, if you convo me, I can send you over my price list.
Another way to do it that seems to be working (it is the way I've done it for my last two commissions) is if you think of a ballpark figure of what you are looking to spend, as well as if you'd like a drawing or painting, and I'd reply with what size portrait I'd be willing to make for that amount.
You can also see more of my work at:

Recommendations are also available, if you'd like them - just let me know!
