Man's Best Friend - Houston Engraving
Unfortunately, I know how it feels to lose a beloved pet and friend. I lost my Sidney (my sweet, opinionated Westie) a few years ago and still think of him often. A few weeks ago, I was contacted about engraving a pet's urn. In all honesty, this is something that I have never done and it frankly is just not on my radar. However, the crematorium that took care of Dexter did him a serious disservice by writing his name on the urn with a gold sharpie....not even in a nice script. Just a plain, old, sad gold sharpie. THAT'S JUST WRONG. So I hope that engraving Dexter's urn not only pleases his parents but also puts him at peace. Peace & Love

Engraved Bracelet - Houston Engraver
The older I get the more I love jewelry and I have always had an affinity for silver. I recently had a bride request something simple, but cool for herself while I was working on her wedding stationery. We landed on engraving a silver bracelet. I figured why not offer something like this to all of my clients. Here it 'tis! Available on the website and the Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BellaGrafiaInk?ref=l2-shop-header-avatar

Seating Chart - New York by way of Houston Calligraphy
This Long Island, NY client wanted to have a seating chart created for a birthday celebration. The request was for gold ink on black paper with script headers. I don't play golf but I totally dig the theme! I think that it came out nicely. Now off to the post office this will go. Cheers!
VIDEO: Houston Calligraphy - The Laser
How do I calligraph my work if I don't want to deal with erasing graphite lines you ask? I just pull out my Austin Powers "Laser" :) Sorry that I couldn't figure out how to enlarge the screen. This is what happens when you are holding the camera in one hand and writing with the other....
