So what's your next painting project going to be?
Nothing comes to mind, I gave my paints to my kids was unhappy with the quality of some of them

I like challenges. This wasn't a big one, but quite fun!
Go check out:
Ann's Ceramics and let me know if it's what you're thinking about.
Peace!

Wow I had no idea they were so expensive, I doubt my mother-in-law spent that much

Price would most likely vary from situation to situation. Some people are, well, greedy even if only subconsciously. Other people tend to not care about the $ so much. Even situations where costs are higher for the seller who isn't greedy can sometimes force them to have higher prices than they would like.
I am very good with searching; I speak Google well. If you'd like I can do an even more extensive search for you? Just mention any particulars you may require such as size, style or location for example.
Like I said, I like a challenge.
Peace!

If you enjoyed the project, maybe you should start an Etsy account...

I think Michelangelo said something similar just before contracted to paint the Sistine chapel.
Peace!
