A PORTION OF A POTION AND LOVE IS IN BLOOM….

ARE YOU A SUBSCRIBER TO THIS BLOG?  IT’S FREE.

Publication dates are random and unpredictable and often filled with helpful information for wannabe Calligraphers and Engravers…as well as those who already are!  Your input is welcomed and appreciated in the Comments block at the end of each piece.  Let me hear from you.

Two different love events.  One a wedding.  One a party.

Three words engraved. Color. Five minutes. #4 round carbide. Gold Rub ‘N Buff. Twenty-eight dollars fee.

Three words engraved. Color. Six minutes. #8 round carbide. Silver Rub ‘N Buff. Thirty dollars fee.

Both projects, eleven minutes total. Fifty-eight dollars total.

With their broad smiles upon seeing the pieces, I sensed each customer would have gladly paid a bit more if the fees had been higher.

Rate of three hundred sixteen dollars and thirty-six cents per hour…..if I’d had an hour’s worth of them!

If you’re an engraver and charging less, you shouldn’t be.  If you’re a wannabe, these are the conservative numbers.

Next Engraving Workshop is November 10, 11, 12.
