HOW IT WORKS

Get in touch for a price list

Step 1 - I can do pretty much any kind of style/ content you like, so to get an idea of what you are feeling for you would send me through inspiration imagery of any of the following which are relevant to you: wedding colour palette/wording/ dates/selection of your favourite flowers/ any symbology which is meaningful to you or your partner/favourite pets/holiday destinations that you might want to include in the design

Step 2 -I then interpret this into a design and get back to you with a rough sketch and colour palette based on what you have sent me-it’s a collaborative process!

Step 3 - If you’re happy with the initial illustration we can crack on! I would take a 50% non refundable deposit and make a maximum of a further two changes to the initial illustration before proceeding to the painting stage.

Step 4 -Let’s get started! If you’re happy to proceed you can send me your jacket, I will take further full payment of the outstanding balance including the postage fee of £10 (UK only) and start painting your new leather baby!

Step 5 - Lead times can vary depending on the complexity of the design. I aim to get all jackets back to their loved ones within four working weeks of receiving them. However I will prioritise jackets for those with an earlier wedding date. During the initial discussions it is crucial to outline when the jacket is required for. Finally I send you a photo of the finished garment before posting it to you ready for the big day!
