What items can you hand paint?

I most commonly paint fragrance bottles, wine and champagne bottles, candles, gift boxes, tote bags, and beauty products. I can also paint on leather goods and fabric. If you have a specific item in mind, send me a photo and I will let you know whether it is a good fit.

Can bottle painting be done live at events?

Yes, though it works best for smaller activations, retail experiences, or as part of a gifting setup where guests receive their item at the end of the event rather than waiting on the spot. Painting takes a bit longer than engraving, so it is worth discussing the format before booking.

Can you combine bottle painting with engraving on the same piece?

Absolutely, and this is one of my favorite combinations. A fragrance bottle with hand-painted florals and an engraved name or monogram is a stunning finished piece. I do this for both live events and studio commissions.

Do you take custom design requests for bottle painting?

Yes. I can work from a design you provide or we can develop something together based on the occasion, the recipient, and the item. I will always share a rough sketch or mock-up before starting so you know what to expect.

Bottle Painting & Hand Painting for Brand Events in Los Angeles | Letters & Feathers

Live Hand Painting creates a truly one-of-a-kind personalization experience. Using acrylic paint, fine brushes and paint pens, I transform bottles, packaging, beauty products, and other surfaces with custom artwork, florals, lettering, and designs created by hand. Each piece is tailored to the brand, product, or occasion.

Hand painting pairs beautifully with engraving and other personalization techniques. A fragrance bottle featuring hand-painted florals and an engraved name has become one of my signature looks for luxury gifting, beauty launches, and VIP experiences.

For live events, hand painting creates an interactive moment guests can watch unfold in real time. It is especially popular for champagne bottles, which cannot be engraved due to pressurization. Because painting is a more detailed process than engraving, it works best for intimate activations, VIP gifting experiences, and curated gifting suites.

For studio commissions, I create custom painted pieces including fragrance bottles, wine and champagne bottles, candles, gift boxes, tote bags, leather goods, and more.
