Currently credit card orders cannot be accepted. Money Orders & Certified Personal Checks are acceptable. (US Postal Money Orders Preferred for out-of-state orders on Mirrors.)
To make ordering as easy as possible you can simply e-mail me describing your interest. Existing pieces will be shipped upon receipt of payment. All work will require a non-refundable 50% deposit. Work will be shipped or delivered upon receipt of balance.
Up to 3 samples will be provided per room or design for a fee of $400.00, which is due before beginning. A percentage or all of this fee will be deducted from the project fee if one of of the original samples is approved. Deduction is determined by the cost of materials required to complete the samples. If additional samples are required any additional fees shall be determined at that time. The original fee, of course, will no longer be refunded in part or all.
If you include your phone no. in your e-mail I will call to discuss details and arrange payment.
