Bird,
Just an option but research a little and YouTube the snot out of it and you could do small projects yourself. Really, it's easier than you think, requires minimal supplies and can be fun; it may turn out to be something you could do for a lil beer money too. In no time you'd be doing car parts, dishes, and the neighbor's pets. The design/film, a couple spray chemicals and a plastic tub are basically all you need. The commercial DIY things you see have you believe it's quite an involved process and that you need all sorts of stuff but that's a little misleading.

If you have the money and want it fast, send it out, but I'm the king of "having to make it, paint it, design it" as I don't have the money to farm it out. Anywho, just a thought...good luck which ever way you decide to go!

Hey there's a dude on Instagram and Facebook who does fantastic work. I've had a few pieces done by him.
Look up dippedbyjesus on either of those social sites.
I think his name is Jesus Adames
