FAQ
Why do you paint mailboxes?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Because they’re a fun canvas! Each box is small, useful, and a chance to bring color and personality into everyday life.
Can I order a custom box?
Sure! Let me know what you’re thinking and I’ll get to work.
What if I don’t have a mailbox (PO Box or neighborhood lockbox)?
Put it in the garden, hang it on a wall, or turn it into a birdhouse. It’s up to you.
Will these hold up to the weather?
Yes. Fins and features are made of PVC fastened with epoxy. Paints are Createx waterborne acrylic (lightfast) coated with a 2K automotive clear. They should last several years in the brightest sun. Wash and wax them like a car every once in a while to preserve the finish.
How much do they run?
About $200 for most.
Where do you show your work?
I occasionally appear at the Kokua Kailua Village Stroll in Downtown Kona.
