Ornament or Sign Finishing

Your worked canvas becomes a finished ornament or a small hanging sign. The piece is blocked back to true, backed in a complementary fabric, edged with hand-twisted cording, and finished with a loop for hanging. Choose the size by the longest dimension of your design.

The ornament is backed in fabric. A double-sided ornament, two worked canvases paired back to back so that it reads from either side of the tree, is quoted on request; please write to us with a photograph of both canvases. If you are finishing a set, send the set together so that every piece matches.

Two prices. Any Pierrepont design, wherever you bought it, is finished at the Pierrepont price; a canvas from elsewhere is finished at the price for other canvases. Choose the one that applies when you order, and tell us in the order notes which design it is. We confirm when the canvas arrives, and if the wrong price was chosen we will write to you before finishing begins.

Before you send your canvas. Please leave at least two inches of bare canvas on every side; this margin is essential for blocking and construction. There is no need to trim, press, or block the piece yourself—that work is ours. Once you place your finishing order, we will write to you with detailed shipping instructions.

Turnaround. Approximately six weeks from the day your canvas reaches us. We will confirm the timeline when your piece is received, and we will write to you when it ships.

Shipping and terms. The price includes the return postage on the finished piece, sent by a tracked service. Please post your canvas within thirty days of placing the order so that we can hold your place in the schedule, and send it tracked, since a completed canvas represents many hours of your work. Once Finishing has begun, the order cannot be cancelled or refunded. Extra-puffy batting, magnets, a charm or ribbon, and other treatments may be added from our Finishing Add-Ons.
