Murals
Hand-painted window murals
Seasonal displays, grand openings, sale days or just because. I design and paint every window by hand, then come back to swap it out when the season changes.
Make your storefront stand out!
Why paint your windows?
People notice storefronts that stand out
Research on signage and window displays shows how much a storefront's look matters to people walking by. A hand-painted mural is a fun, eye-catching way to give yours that pull.

- 82%say an eye-catching window display makes them more inclined to go in (retail study, 2023)
- 68%have bought something after a sign caught their eye (FedEx Office, 2012)
- 12%avg. increased sales for businesses that improved signage (U. of Cincinnati, 2012)

Wall & custom murals, too
Windows are my favorite, but I also take on wall murals and one-of-a-kind projects. Same whimsy, just more square feet.
Every custom project starts with a chat and a sketch, so you know exactly what you're getting before any paint goes up.
- Nurseries, playrooms and bedrooms
- Café, shop and office feature walls
- Garden sheds, fences and little free libraries
- Signs, menu boards and event backdrops

The fine print, but friendly
What affects the price
-
Size
More glass means more paint and more time. I'll measure, or you can send rough measurements.
-
Detail
A few snowflakes is quicker than a full woodland scene with a fox in a tiny scarf.
-
Inside or outside
Painting inside the glass means painting in reverse, which takes a bit longer.
-
Height & access
High windows, tall ladders or tricky spots can add setup time.
-
Timing
Rush jobs and peak holiday weeks may carry a small premium.
-
Travel
Free within about 30 miles of [Your Town]; a small travel fee beyond that.
