Most people think I just write names on things, but what I actually create at events goes far beyond that.

Whether it’s engraving, foiling, pyrography, painting, or calligraphy, each piece is created in real time, giving people a reason to stop, engage, and connect with your brand in a more personal way.

In a world where so much is automated and created with AI, that kind of interaction stands out.

It turns a purchase into a memory, product into a keepsake and a simple moment into something people remember long after the event is over.

That’s what live personalisation actually creates.

Want to make you event memorable? I do too! I'm ready whenever you are. (contact šŸ”— in bio)

La plupart des gens pensent que je fais simplement écrire des noms sur des objets, mais ce que je crée réellement lors des événements va bien au-delaĢ€ de ça.

Que ce soit de la gravure,"foiling", de la pyrogravure, de la peinture ou de la calligraphie, chaque pieĢ€ce est réalisée en temps réel, donnant aux gens une raison de s’arreĢ‚ter, de s’engager et de se connecter avec ta marque de façon plus personnelle.

Dans un monde ouĢ€ tant de choses sont automatisées et créées avec l’IA, ce type d’interaction se démarque.

Ça transforme un achat en souvenir, un produit en objet précieux et un simple moment en quelque chose dont on se souvient longtemps apreĢ€s la fin de l’événement.

C’est ça que la personnalisation en direct crée réellement.

Envie de rendre ton événement mémorable? Moi aussi! Je suis preĢ‚te quand tu l’es. (contact šŸ”— dans la bio)

Hi! I’m Erin, — the artist behind the account. āœļø It's been a while since I've made an introduction post, so I figured I'd drop a new one that also uses some of my new brand photos, done by the talented @al.xtran šŸ’«

Since 2019, I’ve been building a business that blends craftsmanship, creativity, and connection — one letter, calligraphy course, and business class at a time.

Whether I’m engraving fragrance bottles for luxury brands, adding gold foil monograms to leather goods, or guiding new calligraphers through the world of pointed pen, my mission is always the same:

To create personal, meaningful moments that last.

šŸ“ From Montreal but always open to travel. Bilingual. Obsessed with gouache. Advocate for thoughtful gifting. And a firm believer that calligraphy isn’t just pretty handwriting - it’s a powerful way to connect people through beauty and intention.

If you’re new here: welcome! If you’ve been following for a while - thank you šŸ’›

šŸŽ„: Behind-the-scenes videos, process posts, and calligraphy tips
šŸ–‹ļø: Engraving, foiling, painting & live events
šŸ“©: Link in bio for inquiries + collaborations

Let’s make some magic, shall we?

Montréal —> Les Cantons-de-l’Est šŸš—šŸ‚šŸ

J’ai accompagné @neilsonletters pour une petite escapade au Vignoble Le Cep d’Argent, aĢ€ Magog, la semaine dernieĢ€re.

It’s officially sweater season, so here’s one last little trip back to summer ā˜€ļø

I personalised these TKEES flip-flops for a @maison.4110 client, and they made it all the way to Saint-Tropez! Seeing my work out in the wild, being worn and enjoyed, is one of my favourite things.

I hand-painted the šŸ‡«šŸ‡· flags in thin layers to build up the colour, then sealed them to help them hold up in such a high-friction spot. On the other flip-flop, I foiled the client’s initials - after checking the initials and sizes approximately five times per pair. That is not an exaggeration 🫠

I loved working on these, and it was lovely to hear how much clients enjoyed the personalisation. Thank you to the Maison 4110 team for trusting me with them!

I’ll be back at Maison 4110 this week for their Denim Event (5pm - 8pm), this time using pyrography to burn initials into leather belts. I’m excited to bring a whole new kind of personalisation to the store!šŸ‘– by @neilsonletters

Montreal, I have two more engraving dates coming up this weekend!

On September 19 & 20, I’ll be at Sephora Centre Eaton from 12–4 PM, engraving purchases to celebrate the launch of Mood Stones, Kylie Jenner’s newest fragrance collection.

The collection includes three completely different scents depending on your mood: Cashmere Muse, a fresh floral musk; Blush Wood, a softer woody floral; and Velvet Brew, a warmer, bolder blend with notes of hazelnut, orange blossom and coffee.

I’ve had a chance to smell all three and Cashmere Muse is definitely my favourite: bergamot, frangipani and salted musk, with this really clean, airy, slightly salty feel.

If you’re downtown this weekend, come by, discover the new collection and have your purchase personalized with complimentary hand engraving while I’m there.

šŸ“ Sephora Centre Eaton, Montreal
šŸ—“ļø September 19 + 20
šŸ• 12–4 PM both days

See you there!

Last night I spent some time outside of my usual service area (Greater Montreal) and headed to Drummondville! If you're curious, that's about 1.5–2.5 hours each way depending on traffic šŸ˜…

I was there to help celebrate the Fondation Sainte-Croix/Heriot during their fundraising gala, La Grande Soirée šŸ„‚

The Foundation is driven by a desire to improve the healthcare services offered to the population of the Drummond RCM, from birth through end of life, raising funds to support healthcare development in the region.

This project was especially fun because it was a hybrid in-studio + live personalization project, meaning I got to spend a whole lot of time in soft clothes working away in my studio AND get all gussied up for the main event.

So what did this project actually look like?

By the numbers...

āœļø 30+ hours of in-studio work

- 3 GIANT pads of paper cut down into 600 individual 5 Ɨ 7 cards
- 600 cards individually hand-stamped by yours truly
- 430+ names written by hand in my studio

šŸ„‚ 6+ hours for event day

- About 3–4 hours of driving to and from Drummondville
- Around 2 hours on-site
- Writing additional names for guests who weren't on the final list
- Along with 2 volunteers, helping people find their cards and add them to the giant installation
- And getting to show everyone that, yes, an actual person sat down and wrote every single one of those names by hand!

That last part was actually one of the reasons I was so happy we added a live element to the project.

When you walk into a room and see hundreds of names already beautifully written, it would be pretty easy to assume they were printed. Instead, guests could see me sitting right beside the installation doing the exact same work in real time.

They would find their card, add their name to the installation themselves, and watch the wall fill up throughout the evening.

And at the end of the night, they were encouraged to go find their name again and take their card home with them as their own little piece of original artwork to remember the evening by.

Met such lovely clients and also ran into @didi.letters who was also in-store that say and she was kind enough to snag a rare photo of me actually behind my desk - thank you!
