Hi there, i’m christy!

WELCOME TO THE MIRROR LETTERING MASTERCLASS

a LIVE training with critically acclaimed Calligrapher & Hand Letterer
CHRISTY TONEY

I design and letter custom signs and execute memorable, temporary installations for weddings and special events. Now, I’m sharing my best practices with lettering enthusiasts all over the country.

I love crafting problem solving online courses and digital resources to help lettering enthusiasts take their work to the next level, enhance their skill set, and scale their businesses.

A lot of calligraphers and hand letterers will show you a process of how to letter on mirrors but there are a LOT of challenges that can arise during this process.

  • How specifically do I divide the vertical space to accommodate the guests names?

  • How wide should the space be between columns?

  • How much information can realistically be placed in the header area?

  • How do you go about fitting a large volume of names onto a mirror maybe turns out to be too small?

  • Do I simply eyeball placing straight lines on a circular/oval mirror?

  • Do I need ruler tape or blue tape and if so, how and when do I use it?

This course is designed to address these kinds of issues that you will find regularly as you tackle this kind of work. Some of the same principles will apply to smaller mirrors as well.

WHY TAKE THIS COURSE?

These time lapse videos of calligraphers lettering mirrors online can look easy, but it can actually be very hard. Mirror Lettering Masterclass takes the stress out of learning to letter on this medium by breaking this process down into digestible pieces and leaving you with a newfound passion!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this course live? Yes, this workshop will be hosted live by myself. I think live workshops are best because of the Q&A. I have purchased courses that have modules that I sadly still haven’t completed. A live host gives you a bit more incentive to show up and learn.

How long do I have access to the course? You will have lifetime access to this course after its completed.

Can I take this class if I’ve never lettered mirrors before? Yes. Your lettering experience will help you craft more successful letters obviously, however we will definitely be going over the paint pen and how to get it to successfully glide over a mirrored surface so no worries.

Is there an Earlybird rate? Yes. I had some technical difficulties during setup and the Eventbrite link may state it differently, however the Earlybird rate is good through JUNE 27, 2022 AT 11PM
