Design Process

I can meet you at the studio, on zoom, via Facebook, or Facetime. Gather up and make some lists of your favorite things. Here are some ideas.

• pictures you like
• favorite colors 
• patterns and/or color combinations
• images of your kids
• images of your pets
• favorite flowers
• your collections, like elephants or teapots 
• what are your kids into
• the budget
• dimensions of the area to be tiled
• countertop and cabinet color samples
• Anything that visually describes the look, style, or feeling you want 

These items will give our conversation a starting point. We'll develop an idea with two ways to proceed:

1.     I can do a scaled drawing for $300.00
2.    You can trust me to do it directly on the tiles

Once the idea is agreed upon a 50% non-refundable deposit is required to begin. You'll have two opportunities to make changes to the drawing. I'll send you pictures of the glazing process and maybe even a fast art video of your project being completed. When fired, a finished image will be sent for approval. I'll receive your email telling me you love it. Then, I'll invoice the other 50% and any shipping fees.

Pricing

Tile projects are priced by the square foot.

 •   Field tiles (single color) are $100 per sq ft
•   Hand-painted cuered seca tiles are $500 per sq ft

To calculate square footage:  

 •   Multiply the length x the width in inches
•   Divide by 144 = amount of square footage needed

Turn-around time is roughly eight weeks depending on size and complexity of order. 

For installations over 20 sq ft, I recommend ordering 10% more tile than is needed; for smaller projects an additional 5% is recommended. 

Each kiln load is unique. Humidity, temperature and clay conditions change from batch to batch. I recommend you order all you will ever need when initially purchasing.
