Popular Post John B Posted January 3, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 That's the business name the person has who I cut this piece for. I had a stall at markets that she organised just prior to Xmas. She asked me about making a piece for her husband for Christmas, featuring a crocodile. No firm order, and thought I would hear no-more about it. About a week before Christmas she messaged me and asked if I could make something like we talked about. This is the result, Did it all within 3 days and had a very happy customer. munzieb, Sam777, neal560sl and 13 others 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place I've heard of it is this ladies business. She conducts art classes and sells different pieces. I believe it may have something to do with her and her husbands names. There was once a hair salon in town named "Pigs might Fly". The story behind that is, you have to submit three business names when registering a business in WA. They picked numbers 1 and 2, being quite sensible names for a salon, and hubby put "Pigs Might Fly" as number three, thinking that one of the 1st two would be a shoe in. Apparently they were both registered so the Dept. issued a business certificate with the 3rd ;). It actually turned out to be quite a brilliant marketing ploy as the shop front was painted pink and everybody new where it was, as it was quite a talking point, especially with visitors to the town.
