Finishing up wedding season
Well, it appears that wedding season for calligraphers and artists has come to a screeching halt! I finished up and shipped out the last 2 aisle runners last week. Here are photos. So, now is the time to get the studio cleaned up and ready for holiday orders. There's always lots of engraving needed for the holidays. Personalized items make great gifts. I engraved a wine bottle stopper the other night, and I'm really happy with the way it came out. I'll be giving lots of these as gifts this holiday season! I have a bunch of them on order for my upcoming craft shows as well. I'm also planning on painting some Christmas banners this year. I have some good ideas, and will post photos soon! Until then, I'll keep cleaning up the studio, and planning for next wedding season! It's a good time to place your orders. Early is good!
Wedding Aisle Runners
Besides doing calligraphy and hand engraving, I also hand paint wedding aisle runners here at Artful Celebrations. This was a pretty busy season for runners, and I just finished the latest one tonight, so I thought I'd share. This runner will be a shower gift from the mother of the bride. The bride will be carrying red roses in her destination wedding in Mexico. "Mother" wanted the runner to feature the initial of the couple's new last name, red roses, and "other orange tropical flowers". I'm hoping I created a runner that she&the bride will love! I hope they keep it as a wall hanging. This runner is heavy off-white canvas, and is 48" wide and 25' long.
Wedding Season
It's hard to believe, but the busy wedding season will soon be calming down. Now is an *excellent* time to for advance planning! If you are a Spring or Summer 2010 bride, planning early and placing orders during this fall or winter, can save you money and time, as well as stress! If you'd like to place an order for a hand painted aisle runner, you should always try to order early. This will save you a considerable amount of money, in shipping expenses alone! The cost for shipping a runner by UPS Ground service is about 1/3 of what it costs for 2 day service! Having extra time to design a runner that's *perfect* for you, is always a plus! If you are considering calligraphy to address your invitation envelopes, you'll usually need to get on the calligraphers schedule, well in advance. Booking early will help you avoid a rush fee later. In addition, most calligraphers will alter their pricing in the "slow season". Getting on their schedule early, can lock you into last year's pricing!
