==== HOW TO PLACE AN ORDER ====
What I need to know to begin:
1) If you don't want it to say CARDS, what should it say?
2) How will they be used?
Examples:
- table sign
- centerpiece
- photographer prop
- wedding gift
- cake topper
3) What's your deadline?
4) Describe how the set should look and how it should *not* look.
Examples:
- vintage or non-vintage
- small, large, uniform or mixed
- traditional or unconventional
- uppercase, lowercase, both
- specific colors
- theme, nautical, farmhouse, circus, storybook
- pale, dark, soft, bright, neon, rainbow
- rustic, shabby, playful, serene, eclectic
- very distressed, slightly worn, clean
- painted, stamped, lithograph
* Extra Credit: Show me how it should look!
==== ABOUT THE BLOCKS ====
- Blocks labeled as vintage date from the late 1800s through the 1980s.
- Non-vintage blocks are less than 20 years old.
- All blocks, whether used or unused, are previously owned.
- The condition of each block ranges from extremely worn to like new--regardless of age.
- Markings made by a previous owner, such as crayon, pen, and other "personalization", is left as is unless otherwise requested.
- I generally find creative uses for blocks in almost every state of decay. Those that are impossible to read, exceedingly damaged, or have intense odors are discarded. With that, please bear in mind that vintage blocks are almost never pristine or unscented.
- Blocks are generally 1 1/4" - 1 3/4" each, but other sizes are available in limited quantities.
- Although exact copies of block sets seen in my photos are not available, I can try to emulate the style.
==== PRICING ====
- I provide a creative service, first collaborating with you one-on-one to understand what you want. Once that's clear I assemble your set using my unique style while incorporating as many of your requests as my stock will allow.
- Sets consist of 2 or more blocks and start at $4.
- Prices include both labor and materials.
- For detailed information about cost, turn around time, and additional options available (such as photo proofs, bulk discounts, and alterations), please request an order form.
