Do you have a project that you want to create yourself and you want to add some custom writing or calligraphy to, but that's just not your thing?

Maybe you don't like your handwriting, you don't have the right pens or markers for the surface you're working on, or you just would rather someone figure out the math and spacing for it? (The spacing can get tricky!)

Did you know that you can hire me to do the custom writing for you? I will gladly take care of it all for you!

This client came to me with the surface, materials, and the idea she had for the calligraphy. I worked my magic, and returned it to her for her to complete! This gift was all handmade with love by her, and I just helped add a little personal touch!

I will take the surface you're working on, add the calligraphy, and return it to you for you to finish! This is your project that you are creating and I just helped you add a little pretty calligraphy to spice it up 😉

Reach out and let me know how I can help you add some personal touches and pretty calligraphy to your next project 😊

-Do you have special instructions or directions for your guests but aren't sure how to incorporate them into your decor?

-Maybe your venue has multiple entrances but you want your guests to enter in one location to experience the wonderful entrance you have spent months planning for.

Throwback to Ryan & Hannah's wedding with this black and gold acrylic sign. This venue had multiple entrances with parking on the front and back of the venue. We were able to create a directional sign that communicated important information to their guests but also kept the color, decor, and feel of their wedding.

Signage is a great way to guide your guests to and through your wedding and it can give your guests a hint of what's to come inside!

Spent the day with thousands of other people at the great Iowa State Fair!

Lots of walking, water, sweat, and of course I had to have my Campbell's lemonade, steak wrap from Cattleman's, and a footlong corndog!

Anyone else going to the state fair this year? What's your favorite fair food??

Practice, practice, practice!
Back to practicing the basics with the basic strokes and the alphabet with a small brush pen.

Did you know that these 7 basic strokes are what make up the basics of modern calligraphy lettering?
