Pricing
My prices are not as high as the most expensive calligraphers charge,
but more than the least expensive calligraphers. Keep in mind that with my work you get several "unadvertised extras" based on my 30 years of experience.
1. I know correct etiquette for envelope addresses,
and will correct mistakes in your list.
2. I know most streets in St. Louis and proper zip codes,
and can also spot many mistakes in other major cities.
If an address looks strange, I look it up and correct mistakes for you.
3. I am easy to work with. Ask for references from my most recent customers.
4. The small extra amount you will spend using my services, compared to the cost of your event, or the amount you will save, is a few dollars well spent (or saved) to make the proper first impression to an event that will be remembered for a lifetime.
Deposit
I frequently am fully booked and must turn down jobs.
To ensure I can do your job and schedule your work,
I ask for a $75 deposit which is applied to the cost of your job.
When sending a deposit let me know 1) the quantity and 2)when the envelopes need to be mailed. Allow me at least two weeks.
Additional Costs
1. COLORED INK---If the color is available in bottled ink there is a $30 set-up charge to clean and change my pens before and after the job.
2. An additional ten cents per line is added for gray, pastel or custom mixed colors I use with a dip pen.
3.ENVELOPES WITH LINERS OR OPAQUE PAPER----I use a light box to ensure the addresses are straight. Liners and heavy envelopes are not translucent and block the light. Lining up each line visually adds time to the job. Thus the extra charge of ten cents per line.
4. ENVELOPE ART---Because this involves a unique small painting
on each envelope, this is the most expensive extra,
but well worth the special effect. I'd be glad to do some sample
designs for you to consider.
5. Small decorative embellishments can be added for as little as twenty-five cents per address.
6. POOR PAPER QUALITY---Very infrequently customers have envelopes
that are rough making my pen point catch, or envelopes that are extremely
porous causing the ink to spread. This requires an extra step to treat each envelope.
7. SHIPPING COSTS----If applicable, charged at actual cost.
