Heidi always does such an amazing job! She draws just about all of our chalkboard signs now! I know that she had actually gotten a 2 hour class on how to draw out the font of our letters on the main chalkboard. I totally want to learn!

I always enjoy the artwork in my local stores. It’s great to see that hidden talent in some of the baristas!

they are not wet erase markers-they are chalk in the form of markers

two of our girls are amazing at this as well. Recently one of them took the pains to draw the komodo dragon on the small signage for the brews of the day. I photoed it, but I’m afraid it’s not the best photo.
She is always adding amazing charm to the cafe-at Christmas she made a little sign with 3 snowmen drinking starbucks!

Hey, I snapped a cellphone photo of the Starbucks chalkboard at my favorite location. I watched Barista Amanda working on this a couple weeks ago…they place it outside daily and it looks like a little of our recent rain dripped on it.

Heidi is amazing at these. I don’t know how anyone draws with those wet erase markers. They’re wretched, in my opinion. But Heidi does amazing stuff with them, consistently.

Gorgeous sign. I always notice those in our local Starbucks. And I have always wondered if they are sneaky decals or if someone actually took the time to craft it all by hand. I’m jealous of someone with such talent!
