Let's get started...

1. Examine the various monograms on the EXAMPLES page. Select 3 or 4 designs that "speak to you." This is how we determine in which direction to start the design process. Look for monograms that appeal to you, do not try to fit your letters into various designs - we will do that for you.

2. Fill out the questionnaire on the QUESTIONNAIRE page.

3. In 2-3 months, you will receive four rough sketches for your approval. These will be very preliminary pencil drawings. Please examine these for composition and letter style only.

4. Select the monogram sketch that you prefer. Contact M.C Designs with any comments or changes regarding this monogram. If you do not like any of the choices, new sketches will be provided (please specify what you liked or disliked about the original sketches).

5. Once M.C Designs receives your comments, a computerized design will be created.

6. You are now free to use the monogram on any of your own items through M.C Designs. The fee for embroidering COM items ranges from
$8 - $18 per item. Or, we can email your monogram to you in the following formats for your own use: EPS, PDF and JPEG.

7. You may also want to use your new custom monogram on any of the many items offered at M.C Designs which include paper products, linens, home accessories, stationery, and glassware.
