I do a combination of things.
1. I have professional "eye-catching" signs that I created on my computer in
MANY different places making it OBVIOUS to people that I paint for tips.
2. I try to hold a wad of $$$$ in my left (non-painting) hand. Keeping a $5
and $10 on the outside of the bills for people to see. It took me awhile to
get used to painting this way, but I believe it's paid off. I don't actually
hold all of my tips....I keep those in my zippered pouch in my apron.
3. I wear a large button that says, "I paint 4 TIPS."
Good luck and Happy Independence Day!
