Custom Orders
Why Custom?
Custom art expands your horizons beyond the aisles of your local department store. It frees you to:
+ Stop settling for pieces that are in stock but... not quite your style
+ Skip those overused inspirational quotes
+ Trade cheaply-built items for quality work
Instead of replacing your art every few years, invest in hand-crafted art that both fits the specifications you have (size, color, and so on) and means something to you personally.
Gifts + Keepsakes
Custom art makes a wonderful gift, too. Whether you're shopping for a wedding, anniversary, milestone birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, or anything in between, let's work together to create a deeply personal piece for your loved one.
(And if you're not sure what to order, but still want to treat them to something custom, buy them a gift card so they can design a piece they love!)
Signed Cricket's Mission
In a few words: make whimsical art accessible. Let me break down what that means.
-
Accessible information—plenty of details about my products and a transparent custom order process. I believe you should be as involved in the process as you want to be, and comfortable with your decision to commission me.
-
Accessible design—because calligraphy that no one can read isn’t worth buying (yes, I went there). A readable website and emails are also high-priority here in order to make space for everyone.
-
Accessible pricing—a range of products and price points from printed greeting cards and gift tags to large, custom-built wood plaques.
Custom Order Process
Your Information
After you fill out the form below, watch for your confirmation email!
We'll communicate by email as needed until I have a clear picture of what you're looking for.
In the rare event that I'm not able to help you with the piece you had in mind, I'll let you know―and I'll point you to another artist who will be a better fit, if I can.
Your Payment
Using the information you've provided, I'll create a price quote and email it to you to look over. If there's anything you'd like to change, you are welcome to let me know. If not, great!
You'll be able to approve the quote, sign a short contract that protects both of us, and make your first payment of 50% the quoted price―all in one place!
Please allow at least 7-10 days after completing your questionnaire to receive your custom quote. Large or complex orders may require significantly more time.
Your Product
After the first payment, I'll create your art, starting with sketches and getting input from you along the way. You'll receive a photo of the finished piece to make sure you love it.
After your final payment, your package will be shipped to you!
Note: Please allow me a minimum of 4 weeks from the time your deposit is paid to complete your custom art. This does not include shipping time, which will vary based on your location.
