This listing is for when you request a something special for one of the custom items in my etsy shop, and it has a cost associated with it. If you have an idea of something special you would like for one of my listings, and I say that it will be an extra cost, this is a way for you to add that special request to your item.
For example, if you request a special stamp ( a commercially available rubber stamp that I don't currently have) for a custom urn, and I say that it will be $15 extra, you can use this listing to add this stamp request for $15 to your cart when you check out, in addition to the item that you are purchasing.
These special customizations can include-
*additional text beyond what is noted in my custom urn or vase listings, or to turn a non quote urn into a quote urn - $25 (if you want to swap a word or two, for the dates shown on the urn listing you do not need to purchase this, you can just request that to be done at no charge)
*requesting a ceramic lid to an item in place of a corked lid on a listing - $25 (please check the ceramic lid section of the shop as I have many urns with ceramic lids already shown as listings)
*adding a large cork to a custom vase listing. - $25
*requesting a stamp that I don't currently have that I will need to purchase for you (not a custom made stamp, but a generic comercially made rubber stamp from another shop). I will keep the stamp after I use it on your piece, you will not receive the actual stamp. there is a store near me that has many rubber stamps, so please feel free to request something very specific if you'd like as maybe i can find it!- $15 large rubber stamps / $10 small rubber stamp. If you request a stamp that I have shown in my stamp palette in the listings there is no charge to request it on an urn.
*requesting a custom made laser cut stamp that I will need to special order for you. these are about 2" x 2" maximum size, and I will send you the custom stamp with your order after I use it. These are laser cut rigid stamps made especially for clay made with a pdf file that you send me- $100
*hand drawn ( carved into clay) very simple decorations ( I don't recommend this! A stamp is much nicer than my sketches but I list it because people always ask) - $20
*gold or white gold metallic accents ( not a large amount, just a small accent painted on with a small brush, best when used to infill a stamped impression) - $25
*special request glaze color for a glaze I have never used yet - $25 but might be more, this one is very tricky and it probably won't be exactly what you were hoping for due to the difficult nature of glaze chemistry
*request I use a stamp or paw print that you have and that you send to me ( like an actual paw print clay stamp or paw impression you had made. You will have to send the stamp to me, please remember there will be about 13% shrinkage of the urn during the firing process) - $15
*add a decal from image you send me (will currently be sepia in color) - $30
*request off white stoneware clay, a discontinued clay color - currently off white stoneware clay is discontinued but can be requested, although it will need more time ( a week or two weeks extra) as I might need to order clay. - $1
*request a slightly different size or shape. (such as a small-medium size, or a taller or wider shape) - $15 ( there is no charge if the shape does not get larger or it is something that is simple for me to do)
*request the item to be sent as a gift with a card. I will wrap the item in nice tissue paper with a ribbon, and add a card to the item with a handwritten note. Generally the cards are very simple cards, but please convo me if you have a special request. I dont send receipts with any of my items, but this is a nice way to make sure the recipient knows who sent the gift and makes it extra special to receive -$15
if you have ideas for special customizations, please send me a convo first. Some of the customizations can be done at no additional charge and can just be added as a note when you order, and some of them will need to be purchased using this this listing. There will be limits to these customizations such as the amount of text that you can add or the kinds of stamps and glaze colors that you can request.
some of these customizations will add additional time for me to make your item. Some of these customizations will require me to order an item from another shop, or do some testing specific to your customization. I have made the lead time 1-2 weeks for this item, but we can discuss specifically how much time this customization will add.
some of these customizations I have not done on an urn or vase before and I wont have a good sample photo to send. please convo me to discuss and learn about the possibilities.
