What I do

Chalkboards & Signs

Custom lettering, menus, painted signs, and chalkboard design and construction.

From espresso bar menus to wedding programs and event walls, I design hand-lettered chalkboards for restaurants, shops, studios, and celebrations.

Ways to work together

Ways to commission chalkboards

  • Menus and shop boardsChalkboard menus, sandwich boards, and signs for restaurants, shops, and studios, including chalkboard menus for Le Méridien.
  • Event chalkboards and wallsBoards and walls designed for events, such as Delta’s employee event and Arauco’s chalk wall at the Georgia World Congress Center.
  • Weddings and celebrationsHand-lettered programs, menus, and welcome boards for weddings and parties.
  • Design and constructionFor Delta, Zach focused on the construction and I created the designs. We work well as a team that way!

Process and planning

How I create a chalkboard

1. Sketch. I have a preliminary meeting with the client to determine their needs and what message they want to share through the design.

2. Digitize. I take the sketches into Photoshop and arrange them in a composition I like, then tweak the lettering or add fonts for graphic appeal.

3. Execute. I print my design and use it as a reference. I don’t add color until the end, and I do test swatches beforehand to make sure they are what the client wants.
