PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE WITHOUT A BOX IN YOUR CART OR QUEUE. This is for the monogram only.
Your monogram is a reflection of your taste and style. It sets your box apart and makes it yours. Whether you prefer one letter for a first initial, a last, or a nickname, is your choice, and part of the fun of choosing. Remember, there is no wrong way to monogram your box.
When choosing your monogram letter, be sure to actually look at YOUR LETTER, and not just the font, as a whole.
Insure you like it and the style of it. It comes down to your chosen letter in an alphabet of all capital letters, so it is imperative that your letter looks good to you standing alone, and not as part of a word. Pay special attention to the letters S, J, G, I, Z, T. These letters sometimes do not resemble the appearance of the modern day letters one is accustomed to. Certain letters have historical reasons why, say, a T looks like an F, and many capital S letters, can resemble an F. Historically, this letter, with all its curves, was extremely difficult to carve into stone, such as head stones, and were replaced with letters with a similar sound that were easier to carve into permanent name plates in wood, stone, metal, and on paper. Please be certain you see your letter choice as being a stand-alone letter . I have many stitched examples of my letters in all the fonts I offer.
Speaking of fonts I offer:
I have carefully chosen six modern and fun fonts and some non- letter symbols. Three in a print font and three in a script font, for plenty of variety. Please carefully view photos to see what the finished fonts look like.
Choose your monogram, font and color and add to cart. When you are ready to check out, you should have a box for each monogram chosen. At no time would you purchase a monogram without a box unless the box is already purchased and waiting in my queue. If this is the case, please do let me know you have added a monogram as a separate purchase, or it will most likely be missed, since these are usually purchased together and the Etsy system can not automatically combine two orders purchased separately by the same person. Once I am made aware, I’ll write a note inside your box order so I can link the two orders. This is a simple matter and I’m happy to do it. As long as I have not already completed your box top, adding a monogram to an unfinished box is not a problem. I’m always happy to work with you so you have the box you want.
Thank you so much for taking the two minutes to read.

Monograms are unique and personal and I want you to love yours. Keep in mind that this is hand made, hand centered, and as such, a slightly off-centered or slightly imperfect stitching is considered part of the beauty and uniqueness of your handmade box and does not constitute a mistake. A mistake is defined as an obvious error; wrong letter, wrong font, wrong color. I promise to give you the best I can give 100% of the time. This is my business, these are my artistic creations, and are a reflection of my talent and skill. I love my business. It’s not only my day job, it’s part of who I am, my artistic identity. You will get my best every time. For me, each box constitutes a miniature three dimensional, hand made, and functional sculpture.
See you on the other side of the process! ❤️
Melissa :)
