Guest Schramm Posted August 15, 2008 When it comes to crown I definatly demand and get top dollar, I charge anywhere between $8 per foot for easy colorwashing or mild crackles to $30 per lin ft (some higher - but not many) for leafing or designs. My expertiese is moldings and furniture and I do very high end stuff. The last job that I was on was nearly $90K but I was there for 7 months so dont get to excited to think that maybe I am rich! Keep in mind in an earlier post I mentioned moving back to Illinois at the end of August and that is because it is not that great down here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bowhunter012004 4 Posted August 29, 2008 I really per say am not a sign company. I do window signage, gold leafing, mirror antiquing and custom designs on furniture for a living. I play around with window lettering when asked to and do stuff for some schools and Churches when they need stuff done but mostly furniture and single use stencils. Below is a couple of pics of my desk that I designed and finished just so you can get a better understanding of what I do. Next desk make over... So after you pulled off the decals from the wood after painting, how did you make that wood stand out from the wood stain? I dont get how you did that last step in your pictures. It is awesome though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SiboleGraphix 1 Posted August 29, 2008 Wow, you do some amazing work! I'm definetly going to have to look into this, as my husband is a general contractor and has his own business. I could definetly help out with some of his more custom jobs when the customer really wants to go all out! I'll have to do alot more research on this, but thank you so much for all the ideas!
