Which craft suits your city?

Choose by where it will live. A skyline city reads biggest on the acrylic or the glitter resin panel, on a wall. A window wants the stained glass suncatcher. The glass ornament goes on the tree, and the beanie goes out the door. Every one is drawn free first, so you can see your place in each.

A sunlit city apartment: a Chicago skyline acrylic panel above a walnut sideboard, a Boston stained-glass suncatcher in the window over brick rooftops and a water tower, and a navy Brooklyn beanie on a peg by the door

What are the five crafts?

Four are for the home and one is to wear. Each is made to order from the design you approve, and each letters your place by name.

Which one for a skyline, and which for a landscape?

A city known by its towers (Chicago, Seattle, New York) has the most room on the two panels: the acrylic builds the skyline from glass shards with lit amber windows, and the resin floats it in glitter with the city lights as points of gold. A state or a country is drawn from its scenery instead, its mountains, coast or canyon, which the round of the suncatcher and the ring of the ornament frame well.

The beanie is the exception. Its print is small, so it carries the name in chunky capitals and one landmark icon, and any place with one landmark everybody knows suits it. The landmarks guide explains how each place is drawn.

Which one catches the light?

The suncatcher is the one made for light from behind: hung in a window, the daylight comes through the colored glass and the lead lines draw the place against it. The acrylic and the resin take light from the front, off their gloss, so they glow on a wall that faces a window or a lamp. The ornament does both on a lit tree.

Questions this leaves

Can I see my place in every craft before I choose?

Yes. Pick a craft in the studio, pick your place, and the design comes back in about a minute. Switch the craft and draw it again; each design is free, and you pay only for the one you approve.

Where do I see the sizes and prices?

On each piece’s product page and in the studio once your design is drawn, read live from Tedooo. Shipping and any taxes are added at checkout.
