It went so great. I brought 2 bottles of wine. Bought 3 paintings and she let me borrow a fourth. And I think I have a friend forever. Ah, it was awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2719081 Sun, 02 Apr 2017 00:29:50 +0000 lamariniere 2719081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: hmm. Maybe one extra nice bottle or 3 bottles with a red, white and rosé. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2719076 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 23:52:51 +0000 peaches1038 2719076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: DH is a practicing artist and would obviously appreciate a commission the most 😉But if you aren't able to swing a purchase at this time, I would suggest just one bottle of wine </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2719016 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 17:17:31 +0000 youboots 2719016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: she likes wins. How many is too many? We have a solid 500 in the cellar 😳 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718962 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 10:26:18 +0000 brownepiano 2718962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is really neat! I would do fancy chocolates and fancy coffee. </p> <p>Or if you know where she likes to buy her supplies, you could get her a gift card but that might get tricky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718951 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 09:25:28 +0000 youboots 2718951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: ha! I hope she drinks is the only thing I'm not sure about but I guess she could serve at a get together. I just sent her a message to ask. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718920 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 06:43:00 +0000 lamariniere 2718920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wiiiine! 🍷 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718905 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 00:10:43 +0000 youboots 2718905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's a celebrity in my world </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718904 Sat, 01 Apr 2017 00:09:47 +0000 youboots 2718904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: thank you. I wanted to make sure I was not going overboard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718886 Fri, 31 Mar 2017 18:57:03 +0000 Greentea 2718886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: chocolates :). That's so nice of you and exciting! The wine is a great idea too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-an-artist#post-2718860 Fri, 31 Mar 2017 15:56:51 +0000 youboots 2718860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I'm kind of being a fan girl but painter I have followed for over 10 years has invited me to her studio. I want to bring a really unique/special gift. </p> <p>I felt compelled to contact her and she said it's a great time for her since she will be listing her home soon and will be selling some of her collection. I'm not sure I will buy something this time- I may commission something instead. I idolize her and we had an amazing chat and I want to bring something unexpected but with the consideration that she's in the process of moving. </p> <p>So far my ideas are:<br /> A really lovely floral arrangement<br /> A fancy box of local chocolates<br /> A nice bottle of wine<br /> A high end travel candle</p> <p>Please help me be thoughtful but not over do it. </p>
