Well, it wasn't really too bad...

Q: Do you have to be an artist?

A: No - but it couldn't hurt if you were :)

Q: Does it take a long time?

A:  Yes - it takes hours and hours depending on how complicated the images and decorations are, how well the paint covers, and how fast you do it. It took me about 1 hour to do a simple image, and 2 hours for the really complicated ones.

Q: Is it expensive?

A: No -in general this is much cheaper than traditional "buy it at Babies-R-Us" decorations. It will cost a bit for the paints and transparencies ($50-$100) and it can get expensive if you get carried away with buying vintage Seuss items.
