VLOG: Day in a Life of a Calligraphy Business Owner

It's been a while since our last VLOG but here's another Day in a Life of a Calligraphy Business Owner. Honestly, every day is a bit different but I wanted to show you what it's like to juggle family time and being a calligraphy business owner with multiple focuses - calligraphy courses, supplies/tools, and wedding invitations!

Thanks dear!

[@NokthulaMadondo]

I enjoyed this. Would love to see how you manage your time, business etc. You seem to have a good balance of work, family and me time. Otherwise great vlog, lovely boy you have!

[@WrittenWordCalligraphy]

Aww thank you!

[@amybollana9818]

Thanks for all the great content Karla! I am really enjoying it ☺️

[@WrittenWordCalligraphy]

I'm so glad to hear that!

Hi Karla! I love everything about you and what you do. You inspire me so much so I’m so thankful for all the knowledge and wisdom you have been imparting to everyone who aspires to start calligraphy or start their own calligraphy/invitation business someday (like me). I am so grateful. With that said, may I know what printer you use for printing the menus? And if you use different kinds of printers for different kinds of things? Would greatly appreciate it as I have been on a hunt for the perfect printer ☺️❤️

[@WrittenWordCalligraphy]

Yes this one we’ve got is the canon pro 100 but I think the new edition is the 200. I usually outsource my printing though especially for letterpress and foil. Just want to make sure everything is top notch

[@gfcnc]

@@WrittenWordCalligraphy oh great! Thanks! How about the white printer you used to print the menus in this video? I believe its an Hp? Would love to know what model ☺️

[@WrittenWordCalligraphy]

Yes it’s an hp but the main thing is the toner, it’s called the ghost white toner. There’s lots of models they have. I’m not at my studio so I can’t tell you the exact model right now!

Hello Karla! I love your work and your content!!! So, I would like to ask you after seeing this video; you print the work for the clients with your own printer??? You don't use offset or digital printing???

[@WrittenWordCalligraphy]

Hi! Thank you!! I do print some of them in-house if it's digital printing, but usually I send it off to the printer for more professional service like letterpress, giclee, foil, embossing, die-cutting, etc.!

So enjoyable to watch and inspiring🥰 do you only accept invitation orders? No signage, handmade stuffs, etc. And may I know which black ink do u use here? Thankss!

[@WrittenWordCalligraphy]

These days I mostly do full invitation orders, so I do have day-of details only from those clients, so no longer doing signage-only orders. Black ink is the moon palace sumi ink!
