FAQ

1. What type of items can be customized?

Short answer? Almost everything.

If it has a surface, chances are I can customize it with at least one of my services; lettering, calligraphy, engraving, heat foiling, debossing or wood burning. Here are just a few favorites:

• Glassware, barware & coffee mugs

• Tote bags, luggage & travel accessories

• Beer, wine, spirits & fragrance bottles

• Cosmetics, mirrors & beauty pieces

• Jewelry, watches, belts

• Shoes, hats & fashion accessories

• Wallets, passport holders & luggage tags

• Notebooks & paper goods

• Scarves & textiles

• Charcuterie boards, marble coasters & candles

• Keepsake boxes & gift packaging

Basically… if you’re wondering “can this be customized?” The answer is probably yes.

No surface is safe & that’s the fun part.

 

2. How many items can be customized at an event?

It really depends; every event is different.

The total number of items I can customize is based on a few things:

• Which service you choose

• The type of surface or product
• How detailed each personalization request is

To give you a general idea of what’s possible per hour:

• Hand lettering: 30–40 items

• Hand engraving: 30–40 items

• Embossing: 25-35 items

• Hot foiling: 25-35 items

• Painting: 10–20 items

These are estimates; I always plan intentionally so guests don’t feel rushed & each piece still feels special.

Hosting a larger event? No problem. Additional artists can be added to keep lines moving and the guest experience elevated.

 

3. Can you customize items before an event?

Yes, absolutely.

In addition to live personalization, I also offer in-studio customization for items or products you’d like completed ahead of time & beautifully displayed at the start of your event.

This is also a great option for post-event support if you realize you need a few extra pieces finished after the celebration.

Think of it as extending the experience beyond the event itself.

For in-studio requests or custom project details, email hello@handletteredbytiffany.com,  I’d love to help bring your vision to life.

 

4. What do you need for set up?

I come prepared with almost everything needed to bring your vision to life.

One of the best parts? My setup is intentionally minimal, clean, and easy to integrate into your event design; whether it’s a luxury brand activation, wedding, or corporate event.

Here’s all I typically need from you:

• A standard table & chair

• Adequate lighting

• A designated area to display or store items to be customized

• Access to power (standard 3-prong outlet) for embossing or wood burning services

I handle the tools, materials, flow, & guest interaction so you can focus on hosting an unforgettable experience.

 

5. Who provides the items?

Clients are responsible for purchasing the items to be customized.

However, you’re not on your own.

I’m happy to provide product recommendations, trusted vendor suggestions, & sourcing guidance to ensure the items are compatible with the selected personalization method and aligned with your overall vision.

Whether you're planning a brand activation, wedding, or corporate event, I can help you choose pieces that:

• Personalize beautifully

• Fit your budget

• Feel elevated & intentional

• Enhance the overall guest experience

If you’d prefer a more hands-off approach, sourcing support can also be discussed as part of your package.

 

6. Do you travel?

Yes!

 

7. Do you have a helper at events?

• Yes; every booking includes at least one assistant. They handle the guest interaction, guide everyone through the order form, and prep each finished item for pickup. You enjoy the event. We handle the table.

 

8. What's the process?

• Tell me about your event. Share your details through the inquiry form: date, location, vibe & what you're dreaming up. I'll review everything & we'll connect to make sure it's a great fit & talk through logistics.
  

• Lock in your date. Once you're ready, I'll send over the proposal & contract. After everything is signed & your retainer is in, your date is officially reserved on my calendar.

• I bring the personalization. On event day, I show up dressed in theme with everything needed to personalize your pieces on-site (or prepare them in-studio). You enjoy your guests & I take care of the details. Ever name, every interaction, done by hand.
