Lettered by Katherine

Possibly one of the corniest things I have ever done but Lettered by Katherine turning 5 years old this month called for some corniness!

This little business has been such a fun journey for me and ohhhh the things I have learned along the way (I did not know how to “work smarter not harder” for quite some time):

- I started with just an Instagram account in 2018 to document my calligraphy progress and projects, but was not a business until I took the leap in 2021

-I had an Etsy shop for a minute (shout out to the few customers I had before I realized that was NOT my calling)

-I put my focus onto weddings and had my work featured in some magazines, including !

- I started teaching classes, and have had the opportunity to host at so many different places (hi, , , , to name a few!)

-I learned how to engrave and began offering that as a service (and then woodburning, heat foiling, leather debossing, etc…)

-I began receiving inquiries for live events and figured that out essentially through trial and error

Now I am looking forward by planning new offerings, limiting or discontinuing others, and working to get my workflows more organized and efficient so more of my focus can be on the art of it all. I have already had an incredible year so far, and I’m excited to see what else 2026 will bring! Thanks for indulging me with my trip down memory lane, and huge thank you to all the other artists I have met, worked with, and learned from along the way 🤍

Officially un-pausing! 🎉

I had taken February and March off to deal with several different things happening at once, and that time away from Lettered by Katherine (though I still had a couple small projects and answered emails when I was able/willing) was so needed.

Some things I’ve been up to:
- Grieving the loss of our family chihuahua (the sweetest pup, we miss her everyday)
- Had major surgery (almost entirely recovered now and feeling SO much better)
- Started my second semester of grad school
- Adopted another rescue chihuahua
- Got an amazing website redesign by
- Had an incredible brand shoot with (this photo is one of my favorites!)

So, I was a bit busy during this “break” 🫠 With that being said, I’m so grateful to have had the ability to step away for a bit and come back when I was ready. I’m looking forward to some live events and weddings I have booked so far for 2025, and can’t wait to see what else comes my way. ✨

Hi! Lettered by Katherine is on pause for the months of February and March. I’ll still be accepting inquiries but answering them in the order they were received closer to April. Feel free to reach out by email, as well, if you have questions outside of what the inquiry forms offer. Thanks so much, see you after the pause! 🤍

Long time, no see! I just wanted to share some availability updates for the remainder of the year now that summer is winding down.

Starting the end of August I am going back to school (🎉) and also doing an 8 month long training program (🎉) and getting accepted to both was a bit of a surprise, so my availability looks a little different than it would have previously. Taking into account the projects I am already booked for, from now until January I have room for:

- one wedding
- one live event
- 3 custom projects

Of course every project is different so I may stray from this plan I’ve created, but for now this is a good idea of what I know I’m capable of fulfilling this fall. If you have a project in mind that is time sensitive (holiday card envelope addressing, personalized gift, etc.) please reach out sooner than later! The more time I have before the date you need the item(s), the better.

Follow the link in my bio to fill out an inquiry form, or reach out directly by email or DM if you have any questions!

I’m so grateful to be able to continue to offer calligraphy and engraving and I’m looking forward to seeing what the rest of the year will hold 🖤✨
