MFTL Co. Custom Map
Included in your custom map order is one (1) 18"x24" print. These maps are drawn by me in the same style and format as my other maps. They are Digitally Printed on Premium Heavyweight Matte Paper. This item ships for free but can not be combined with other items in the shop for free shipping. Prints have to be shipped separately from apparel and goods to help keep them safe. :)
If you'd like to order additional prints of the same custom map there is a small fee to cover printing costs of $24 / per print.
The Process
1. Pick a Place
This can be a lake, river, bay, town, park, area, whatever you like and wherever has meaning to you or the person you wish to gift this artwork to. Need an idea of what's possible? Have a look at what I currently have available on the Prints page.
2. Add an important detail
Does your cottage, cabin, camp have a special name you'd like listed as a Subheading? Or maybe you and your partner started camping in a specific park back in a certain year. Maybe a meaningful saying or lyric. Whatever it may be, this adds an extra level of personalization.
3. Watch your Inbox
I'll be opening up 10 spots for maps for the first round. Going through the submissions in order that they come. I'll reach out via email to confirm I can draw your request. I'll be double confirming the place you requested by sending a screenshot & google maps link. If I don't hear back within 24hrs, I'll reach out to the next submission. If I don't reach out within a few weeks unfortunately that just simple means it wont work out.
4. Payment & delivery!
Once you've confirmed your location with me, you'll receive an invoice link through the online store to your inbox for payment. Drawing will begin as soon as your map is paid for! This process may take between 1-2 weeks. Once I'm done drawing your map and it has been printed, I'll pack it up as safe as I can and you'll receive a shipping notification with tracking!
Please do not make a request unless you fully intend to proceed with purchase once I reach out to you via email.
Some FAQ
Can I request the water be a different colour?
Absolutely! The only thing I can't promise is how it will look printed. The current colour I use has been tested. I will not have an opportunity to test a new colour, so there is a small risk.
Do you sell frames for the maps?
I don't, but I do have a discount code you can use on oppositewall.com which is where I buy all of my frames from! Use the code: MADEFORTHELAKE for 15% off at checkout.
I didn't get into the first round for Custom Maps, will there be more opportunities?
I'm going to fit in as many as I can right up until the shipping deadline for holiday orders. I'll give you as much notice as possible if I can't make it happen.
Why do I have to submit a request before ordering and paying?
There are just some places that are not possible for me to draw or just don't translate well into the style I draw them in. I don't want to take money from anyone and then have to return it if I can't complete the project for them .
Can the map be different dimensions?
Let me know what size you're thinking and I can provide an estimate based on that. The cost could change slightly depending on the size you're wanting (a little less for a smaller print or a little more for a bigger one). My printer does have limitations so some sizes may not be possible. I've also found that the bigger prints run a higher risk of damage in the shipping process.
