TIME

I am often asked “How long will that take?” Here’s a general idea;

100 envelopes – approximately 4 days

400 envelopes – approximately 8 days

1200 envelopes – approximately 15 days

As I said this is a GENERAL estimate and it depends on several factors, especially on how many jobs I have going at any one time. I do need to have some buffer time in my work too because while it’s art and I love it, it’s also a bit of manual work! 

RUSH JOBS

Rush jobs are extra. Yes, at my discretion. If I can work your job in then you

won’t be charged a rush fee, simple as that. I do want to help people out when

and if I can, and I do want them all to have beautiful calligraphy. With that said,

April – October is a very busy time of year as well as the winter holiday season. I

increase my fees about 50% depending on the size and scope of what is needed.

I use FedEx envelopes and over-night service to deliver what you need as

quickly as possible. Clients pay for all shipping.

SHIPPING

Clients pay for all shipping to or from my studio.

I use the best shipping rates I can find and charge you ONLY for the packing materials and shipping. There is no additional time or ‘handling’ fee accrued on my part. I use FedEx for rushed over-night jobs, and UPS for most other services.

*If you live in the Napa Valley Area or Sonoma County area, we can make pick-up and drop-off arrangements.

*If you live anywhere else in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond, regular shipping charges apply.

Cancellation fee

I do not charge a cancellation fee. Any job cancelled before 30 days of the start date I will fully refund the deposit fee.

Refunds

I don’t provide deposit refunds after the negotiated start date spelled out in your contract, typically six weeks before your event date. I will fully refund the deposit for any job cancelled before the start date.

Contract

I require a signed contract before I start any job. After we have negotiated prices and discussed the size and scope of your job, I will send you a preliminary invoice and a contract to be signed and returned prior to the start date of your job. Work cannot begin until there is a signed contract.

COMMISSIONED ART RELEASE FORM

Many clients sign a release form allowing me to use images of completed work on my website or in advertising. If you do or do not want images used I have a form that I keep on file for just such purposes.

CONFIDENTIALLY / NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

Any client wishing me to sign a privacy agreement is of course welcome and entitled to privacy for their event. I am more than happy to oblige!
