I love creating custom orders and will gladly discuss your ideas for your custom request. Please understand that the time involved in creating a unique, one of a kind piece takes away from my other customers and therefor I must ask for a deposit before I even begin your custom order to insure that you are going to purchase the design requested. The amount of the deposit will be open to discussion between myself and the customer..I'm very flexible in this area and will work with you to decide on a deposit that both parties are comfortable with.Thank you.
