My friends gifted me a 26 oz Yeti Rambler bottle for my birthday. Before giving it to me, they personalized the bottle with my name, birth month flower, and a slogan that reminded us of a fun time we had in Vegas. I loved the personalization so much, I decided to get the same personalized gift for my other friend's milestone birthday. Luckily, my friends left me with Kristen's business card, which made it easier for me to find her. I reached out to Kristen, who promptly responded to my inquiry on IG. I explained what I was interested in, sent a few examples, and got the personalized Yeti bottle in less than a week. Because I live in a different county, I shipped the new bottle to her for convenience, which she shipped back to me when she was done. Kristen is very responsive, provided a quick turn around time, and made the entire process easy! I will only use Inkchanted for all my personalization. read more

This shop is truly amazing. I mentioned where we're hosting my son's party, and she went above and beyond--taking the initiative to look up the venue's website and pull graphics to perfectly customize the party favors. That level of care immediately put me at ease and made me comfortable sharing even my smallest concerns, like wanting to be sure the rainbows didn't feel too girly. She understood exactly what I was envisioning and exceeded every expectation. If you're looking for party favors, don't hesitate to reach out--she's incredibly thoughtful and genuinely wants you to love every item she creates. read more

I needed to get a Yeti tumbler engraved as a group gift for a teacher who was moving. It was short notice and a holiday weekend, so I wasn't sure if it was doable! A friend recommended Inkchanted and I'm so glad! I purchased the tumbler locally and took it right over after reaching out to Kristen and asking if she could do it! She sent me proofs the next day and had it finished the day after, way before my deadline. It came out perfect and our recipient absolutely loved it! I would definitely recommend Inkchanted and would use her again for future gift needs. read more

Working with Kristen was one of the best things, I saw her work on Etsy and she responded to me in few minutes and told me she can make the planner for me. I told her what I wanted and she gave me the first draft in 30 MINUTES and it was exactly what I wanted. She worked on making it perfect all night and gave it to me in the morning, it's PERFECT. If you are looking for someone to design something for u, look no further, Kristen is your girl. Extremely Professional and Pleasant. read more

I took my first calligraphy class last night & walked in knowing absolutely nothing about it. I had seen Kristen's wonderful work on her instagram page & felt inspired to take a class and learn! First I walked in and found a custom bag with my name which was super sweet & was not expecting. The kit included everything you need to get started with even a cute tote & clipboard! She puts a lot of thought & extra thought into her classes which I don't think you would get anywhere else. The class was a small size which was perfect for my first time. I had no clue what I was doing, calligraphic is harder than it looks haha. Kristen helped each student to their individual needs which was awesome. I think I needed the most help(oops). But I think I came a long way from the first letter we started with, to the harder letters at the end of the class! Kristen is very hands on & I think her classes are perfect for anyone that has never tried calligraphy. She tailors her teaching and needs to each student, so I'm sure if you are experienced she has classes that would be challenging & helpful as well! I had a great time & walked away pretty confident in what I learned & was able to do at the end of the class! read more

I told my wife she could have the wedding of her dreams and so she did. Inkchanted offered something unique, we didn't even know we needed. After coming across their beautiful works of calligraphy, we knew just going to a print shop, and getting standard place cards wouldn't suffice. Sure enough, we got the place cards for our guests, but they were more like individual paintings of their names. Every single guest, pulled out their phone to take a picture of their place cards that evening. We wanted our wedding to be memorable, and the cards made by Inkchanted were one of the many memorable moments of our wedding. We only go here for calligraphy work now. There's no reason to go elsewhere, because it'll feel like a downgrade. Choose above average and go with these guys. We are so happy with the product and serviced we received. read more

Having seen the work Kristen had done in the past for my friends (custom invitations, logo designs, wooden carved signed, handmade decors, ect.), it was an easy decision to hire Kristen to design my logo for my jewelry and accessories business, arlinajo.com. I walked in our meeting thinking I would be a challenge since I had several different ideas and really didn't know what I wanted. Boy, was I wrong! Kristen helped me through the different ideas I had. She was so easy to work with and showed me so many options of calligraphy and symbols, without becoming overwhelmed. She helped me narrow down, solidify, and fine tune my logo until it was perfect and she was so patient with me THE whole process. I never felt rushed at all. Kristen is very meticulous, attentive, and prompt with her work. Her passion for calligraphy shows in her work! And her customer service is beyond excellent! We ended up with several different versions and colors of my logo and I'm so happy with all the results! I even ordered a logo rubber stamp from her which I use all the time. I would definitely hire her again for any logo or custom work again! read more

I called these guys after reading their online reviews, and spoke to Kristen about getting water bottles and Tumblers.

Kristen designed a beautiful rose gold custom cake topper for my wedding in May! She was able to put anything on it that I wanted. I asked for "Mr. & Mrs. Pollak" and she delivered! She was very responsive to my messages and made me exactly the kind of cake topper that I was looking for. She made the cake topper quickly. It was very reasonably priced. I cannot wait to see it on top of the wedding cake! It is the perfect custom touch! read more

With short notice, we decided we needed a calligrapher for mirrors at my daughter's wedding instead of using place cards. Kristen came to the rescue! Though it was a modern style wedding, we chose with Kristen a more traditional font though she could have accommodated a more modern choice. When at the last minute I asked if she could make some changes to the table numbers, she was more than willing to do so. I highly recommend her work! read more

I can not praise Kristen at Inkchanted enough. From the beginning she was extremely professional and helpful. I reached out to her in a pinch (after reading multiple 5 star reviews) because the calligrapher my event planner recommended was unavailable and I had a fast approaching deadline. She immediately calmed my anxiety by making my project feel like her priority. We had great communication and she offered wonderful advice which I graciously welcomed being this was my first experience with wedding invitations. Her work is impeccable and I received countless compliments on how beautiful my invitations turned out. Not to mention her prices are very reasonable and definitely worth the splurge. I mean, how often does the occasion arise to do something as exquisite as calligraphy! Kristen really out did herself when I ran in to a postage issue and had to redo some calligraphy on the fly...I just can't thank her enough for making my special day extra special. I can't wait to have another project we can work together on! read more

Wow. This is one incredible woman! I came to Kristen with a task that nearly 10 individuals and companies had turned down. I needed to label (in print...which she claims is not her expertise....it IS) a very challenging plastic shape. I called Kristen, and although she had tons of other clients in the works, she put me first. I had called a lot of other calligraphists who wouldn't even try to listen to my project. But Kristen took the time to listen to my needs and get the job done right. Our final product was beautiful and even better than I had expected. I would recommend Kristen for any type of project, big or small. She has tremendous creative ability, and extradinary customer service. read more

I loved taking Kristen's calligraphy class! I enjoy having ample time to practice my technique before moving on to the next step. In some of the classroom settings, I find you are either rushed to learn all of the lessons within the time frame given or you run out of time. Kristen is absolutely helpful and a wonderful teacher. She has also done customized signs for our birthday parties. Many of my guest adore her work because of the detail and finishing touches she adds! read more

We love working with Kristen! We're not the creative types but had a lot of ideas from Pinterest while planning my grandmother's 100th birthday. We showed Kristen some of our ideas and she brought it to the next level! We couldn't be happier with the final products! She designed multiple chalkboard signs and added her own beautiful touches. But the piece de resistance was the calligraphy board. We gave her some info and pictures and she turned it into a wonderful keepsake item that everyone enjoyed reading. I would highly recommend her to 'up' your party game or just to personalize any item. She does beautiful work and we can't wait to work with her again! read more

Kristen has worked recently with me to create a calligraphed logo for my start up small business. She is prompt to answer my questions or needs, easy to work with, and very detailed to make sure I was happy with the outcome. She definitely gives her 110% to make sure you are happy and satisfied with her work. She does traditional and modern calligraphy that are both done so beautifully! An artist indeed. I have also taken her calligraphy class which I highly recommend. She does not leave you behind and makes sure you get the hang of it before she moves on. I've only taken her first class and already have learned so much from it and cannot wait to take the second class. If you are in need of any wedding calligraphy or any type of calligraphy, Kristen is your girl! read more

I have only had the pleasure of using Inkchanted Paper and Designs once so far... I was just talking about how terrible that was! I can't believe I have not used them over and over for multiple projects I have struggled through each month. Kristen's work is flawless and she was so accommodating with my silly last minute requests. She made drink-ware with my sisters wedding party names on it that were then left in over 100 degree weather, threw in the pool and have been used EVERYDAY since. The lettering stickers she did STILL have not come off! Thank you so much for this and all future projects I will request! read more

They were the star of the party and I will be using her again for future events! She is so talented. read more
