From concept sketch to finished piece: personalized door plates
Hi all, I’m helping a friend launch a tiny B\&B and want to commission unique door plates that reflect its retro-vintage brand. I’ve sketched some ideas with monograms and floral motifs but have zero clue how to turn those into production-ready art. What’s the process like for going from handwritten sketch to the final product? Does anyone work directly with vendors who handle vectorizing and proof reviews?

Great concept! For vintage charm, consider hand-lettering digitized for crisp vectoring. Many online services offer this affordably, including proofing. Think about incorporating subtle textures, like etched metal, to enhance the retro feel. If you want some fun, try designing them like the islands in Poptropica! Remember to confirm material durability and mounting options with the vendor.
