Let's Work together

What makes an event unforgettable? It’s the feeling of being seen, celebrated, and personally valued.

Through the art of live calligraphy and engraving, I create thoughtful details that ensure every guest feels acknowledged and every moment feels meaningful.

The beauty of live personalization lies in connection: sharing stories, capturing names, and transforming brief encounters into lasting memories. Seeing a guest’s face light up as they receive something made for them is what makes this work so rewarding.

Live Personalization Methods.

Calligraphy

There is something quietly joyful about receiving a personal note thoughtfully crafted in elegant, hand-lettered script. Whether it’s a card for a guest or a small detail for your event, live calligraphy adds a refined, personal touch that transforms a simple gesture into a memorable moment. This service is ideal for stationery, tote bags, ornaments, champagne bottles, and more, bringing warmth and sophistication to every detail.

Engraving

Live engraving offers a memorable experience, combining a sense of discovery with thoughtful, hand-crafted details. Each item is carefully etched, making every piece feel intentional and unique. Using a precision engraving drill, I work on glass, metal, ceramic, and many other surfaces, finishing each design with gold or silver wax for a polished, elegant effect. Engraving is especially popular for fragrance bottles, tumblers, and fine spirits, adding a refined and personal touch that enhances your event.

Heat Debossing

Heat debossing offers a luxurious, tactile detail that is sure to capture your guests’ attention. This technique uses heat to imprint hand-lettered designs into leather or wood, with options for radiant gold foil or a rich, burnished finish. Ideal for cowboy hats, wallets, belts, bags, and wooden items, heat debossing adds a meaningful, personalized touch that highlights the care and thoughtfulness of your celebration.

A Rare and Timeless Art

There’s something about calligraphy that leaves a lasting impression – a touch of artistry that stays in memory long after the ink dries. Let your guests experience the elegance of personalization through custom, hand-lettered designs crafted just for them. From initials to meaningful phrases, each creation becomes a keepsake of your event’s story.
