The studio

A little conversation.
Then the ink.

Quillavelle is a small lettering desk in Maple Crossing, making paper pieces one name and one stroke at a time.

From sample to delivery

  1. Tell us about the piece.

    Share the quantity, wording length, paper and date you need it. We check the calendar and send a written quote, including shipping or appointment pickup.

  2. See the sample.

    After you accept the quote and pay a 50% deposit, we prepare a sample within 5 business days of receiving test paper. One revision to letter style, spacing or ink is included before production.

  3. Approve the details.

    You check every name and address in the final list and approve the ink sample. Send 10% extra blank envelopes or cards. Production starts only when the sample and list are approved and all materials are here.

  4. Unwrap the finished work.

    Standard lettering takes 2–3 weeks after approval and receipt of materials; holiday addressing takes 10 business days. The balance is due before shipping or pickup. We pack pieces flat with protective boards and return unused blanks.

A person checks every name.

We compare finished pieces with your approved list. If we make a lettering error, we replace the affected piece at no charge. Changes to your approved wording are priced by the piece before we begin them.

Studio hours: Tuesday–Friday, 10am–4pm. Saturday–Monday, closed. Pickup is by appointment in Maple Crossing; we agree on a time and share directions when the order is ready.
