Hot Foil Calligraphy Offering

I love getting to be apart of so many special events–especially corporate events! You can add a special touch to your next corporate event by adding calligraphy customization with hot foil.

Hot foil is the art of using a special metallic plastic coating with a hot pen to adhere or melt it into the surface such as a notebook or faux leather item.

This fun event was a delayed holiday party where each attendee had the opportunity to pick a notebook or pouch with the company logo and have me add whatever they like written in hot foil!

Most people will opt to write there initials or name, but I always receive a few fun phrases to add to the items.

What would you add on your item?

Clarins, Earth Day Celebration with Calligraphy

This past week I had the pleasure to create these fun calligraphy and painted flower pots for Clarins at Bloomingdales on Michigan Avenue. They were celebrating Earth Day with a qualifying purchase you received one of these custom flower pots, a pack of seeds and a tree planted in your name. How amazing is that?

I loved the different ideas people asked me to paint including a dog themed one for a frequent customer who brings in their dog in often, a French inspired pot, a pot for a librarian with hand-drawn books and even an original illustration by me based on the flowers on the table!
