How it Works...

What kinds of things do I paint?

I specialize in creating designs that are personal to you. Pieces might include:

​

• Animals or plants 

• Activities/hobbies

• Special places

• Written words

• The theme of  your event

• Anything else we dream up together!

 

Most of all, I specialize in working with clients who are excited to wear something totally original and one-of-a-kind. You by no means need to have a clear vision in your head about exactly what you want right now: that's what the consult is for! You can take a look at a few of the past projects I've done here.

 

Hand-painted? What if it rains?

The paint I use sets into the fabric--it is extremely versatile and water + wear-proof (even machine washable!). So there are no limits for the type of fabric or clothing item we can transform for you, or the situations in which it can be worn.

​

Can I paint "xyz" character for you?

I am happy to create pieces inspired by the colors or vibes of beloved characters, etc! However, I do not paint trademarked or copyrighted material. It's important to me that you end up with a one-of-a-kind, original work of art that's unique to you and can't be repeated again.

 

What is the process like? 

Through unlimited one-on-one consultations, we come up with a piece that you can feel great about wearing. Communication stays open throughout the process in whatever method(s) suits you best: text, email, phone calls, video calls, in person, etc. Your custom design is 100% bespoke to you, as we stay in touch from start to finish and prioritize your ideas and input.

 

I paint exclusively on secondhand clothing items to promote sustainable fashion. This means that sourcing the perfect piece to be painted (whether from your own closet or my inventory) is included as part of the process.

​

​How long will it take?

Depending on the scale of your project, it can take anywhere from 1-6 months to complete. The sooner you get in touch the better!

​

What is the cost?

The final cost of your project is determined by the complexity and size of the design. Gowns or suit coats and similar start at $1,000 and neckties or scarves/wraps and similar start at $300.

If at the initial consult we determine your project is a good fit and you would like to move forward with a design, you will be invoiced for a 20% deposit.
