Completely Custom

April 15, 2008 | Filed Under Newborn 

One of my favorite things to do for my clients is to create something that is unique… a one-of-a-kind piece that they will enjoy looking at on their walls each day. I wanted to share a couple of my favorite custom pieces from the past couple of months.

First is a custom art canvas that I created, with help from the baby’s father. He is a talented musician, and when I found out that he had written a song just for his baby girl, I knew I wanted to incorporate that somehow. So dad wrote the lyrics out and sent me a scan of his handwriting. I was able to combine his lyrics with my image and some artistic embellishments to create this beautiful piece. I printed it as a 20×24 gallery wrapped canvas, and the finished product looked AMAZING! I asked mom to send me a picture of it when they hang it on the wall… but in the meantime, this is the design that was printed:

This next one was originally shown to the client as a birth announcement design. The mom had already sent out announcements, but loved what I had worked up. So she had the great idea to print the “announcement” as an 11×14 wall portrait to display in the baby’s nursery. I think she’s a genius… I love this idea:

    Hi Courtney,

    I have been trying to reach you by email for a couple of days and my email bounces back telling me that your mailbox is full. Coincidentally, you just sent me an email! We finally got our photos displayed on the wall and as promised, I had sent you the pics that I made of the display. I’ll keep trying.

    By the way, these custom photos are brilliant!
