She is so professional and has a lovely, re-assuring personality. She made recommendations that we followed completely because I was aware that her work is impeccable. She ensured that every touchpoint supported the formal wedding we were throwing. She did all of the work. She had the envelopes addressed with the highest quality calligraphy and she hand-stamped and mailed everything for us. I had no worries at all with this aspect of the wedding. It was such a pleasure to do business with her. She is exceptional at what she does. We were more than thrilled with the outcomes.

Samantha was easy to work with from start to finish and was able to stay professional despite the long lines at the party (I mean, how could you not want something so beautiful as a keepsake?). I could picture using her for corporate events, bridal showers, baby showers and any other celebration that could you a personalized twist. She can write on any material and even engraves on glass! I have not had the chance to check out her Intro to Hand Lettering classes yet but for now, I'll leave it to the pros. Painted Palettes is simply the best!

A couple months ago, my friend Kim and I took an Intro to Hand Lettering class with Samantha at Steadfast Supply in DC. Oh that rush hour traffic and $20 parking was sooo worth it! Turns out, Samantha used to be a teacher, and it shows in the way she articulates the class. It was easy to follow her instructions, and she was very hands-on with showing examples. Plus we got a pretty decent set of tools and goodies to take home with us! Since, I've purchased some of her watercolor artwork to hang at home. I am such a fan! The artwork can be found on her website or in various shops in the area. And her classes are actually affordable! Next I want to take her Pointed Pen class!

I have gone to their booth at two recent holiday fairs and been very impressed by their cards. They do a mix of letterpress greeting cards ($5), coasters ($5 for a pack of ten), postcard packs, and letterpress signs (most of which currently relate to alcohol and are pretty darn cute). A lot of their work has a DC theme. The greeting cards are more basic text-heavy and everything else plays a bit more with images and color. Looking forward to seeing them grow and create more in the future!

We decided it was so meaningful we wanted to have it calligraphed and serve as our 1st wedding anniversary present to each other. We reached out to Sally, sent her the poem, and how she worked with us, understood our idea, and then - created SUCH A WORK OF ART - we couldn't be more moved, more grateful, more happy - and we're both artists ourselves, so it's fair to say we're "discerning." Sally is superb in every way and her pricing, BTW, is eminently reasonable for the art she creates.
