300. Custom Ceramic Love Note

Some moments deserve more than a text, more than a scribble on paper — they deserve to be held. Our Ceramic Noteturns the ephemerality of a handwritten thought into a lasting piece of art. Shaped to resemble a soft, folded napkin or torn page, this ceramic piece is a poetic reminder that even fleeting words can be lasting when honored through intention and craft. Each note is hand-formed and customizable with a short phrase, quote, or message of your choosing — whether it’s something you’ve said once and meant forever, or something someone whispered that you’ll never forget. This piece speaks to the artist’s belief that while moments may be brief, they are never disposable. The ceramic medium, traditionally seen as delicate yet enduring, gives weight to your words — offering a tactile memory that can live on a shelf, a desk, or in the hands of someone you love. • Hand-sculpted ceramic, shaped like a paper note or napkin • Customize with a short saying, memory, or meaningful quote

• Each piece is one-of-a-kind — slight variations in fold and glaze are natural

• Dimensions: Approx. 4" x 6"

• Ships in a gift-ready box with a card explaining the meaning behind the piece

Give a message that endures. A whisper turned sculpture. A moment made permanent.

After your purchase, please email your handwritten note or message to gabrielle@blkwheelhouse.com.

600. Custom Hand Embroidered Blouse

More than clothing — this Hand-Embroidered Shirt is a memory in the making.

Whether it reads like a secret joke between friends or a love letter to a past version of yourself, this piece becomes deeply personal the moment you wear it.

Things to Consider

  • Custom artwork can take anywhere from 2-6 weeks depending on the complexity, materials, and current workload. If you need it sooner, please let me know, but rush orders may come with additional fees.

  • Depending on the project, I typically offer 1-2 rounds of revisions. If more changes are needed, additional fees may apply. We will discuss this once the details are finalized.

  • A 50% non-refundable deposit is required upfront, with the remaining balance due upon completion. For larger projects, I offer payment plans—just let me know if you need this option.

  • For physical items, shipping costs will vary depending on location, size, and materials. I will provide an estimate once we finalize the details.

  • Once work has started, cancellations are not accepted. Please ensure you are fully committed before submitting your request.

The design was bold, vibrant, and perfectly captured the essence of our trip—it was more than just a t-shirt, it was a statement of our unity and joy.
