Frequently Asked Questions

The most common questions regarding my calligraphy and live event services!

What is Live Event Hand Engraving?

Live event engraving is basically calligraphy on glass, metals, leathers, and some plastics, except etched with a diamond burr and drill! I've transformed my calligraphy on paper, to beautifully letter on these other surfaces to create exceptional pieces. The "live event" part happens when I perform these services on-site at your event! 

What can be hand engraved?

Engraving personalizations can happen on many types items.. Glass and metals are most ideal, but we can discuss other options as needed. A list of popular items are below. Don't worry if you don't see yours & have another idea in mind, just let me know! 

  • Perfume/Fragrance Bottles
  • Alcohol Bottles (Non-Carbonated)
  • Makeup Brushes
  • Compact Mirrors
  • Beauty Serums/Foundations, etc.,
  • Candles
  • Water Bottles

What else can be personalized? 

Other items that can be personalized may require one of my other services. These include painting, hot foiling, and wood burning. Painting can be done on most of the same items you can engrave, but also includes carbonated bottles. Hot foiling is best on genuine or faux leathers. And wood burning is perfect for wood or gourds!

How long does personalization take?

Personalization times can vary based on the item, the service, and customization length. For example, initials are quicker than a short quote or saying. Estimated lengths are below.

  • Hand Engraving: Up to 50 items/hour
  • Calligraphy/Lettering: Up to 50 items/hour
  • Painting: 10-15 items/hour
  • Hot Foiling/Debossing: 20-30 items/hour
  • Wood Burning: 20-30 items/hour
