Paint job!

I've been talking about it for awhile now, but it finally happened: we got a paint job.  It was long overdue and now it's BEEEEAUTIFUL!  Check out the progression...

The sketching started at 11:30 pm with a finicky old projector.  We display the logo up on the trailer and Erik Leighland, our talented artist, sketches around the lettering.

 This is what the sketch looked like the following day.  I told Erik to make a cheesy grin.  Mission accomplished.


 Here's Erik putting on the final coat of paint- every letter freehand!
I have had a lot of people come up to me and ask "where's the flair?" in terms of the outside of our trailer.  I usually try to draw their attention to the inside-- the crown molding, the tiled linoleum, the handmade countertops, the energy star lighting... but now I can proudly say that we have the whole package.

Huge thank you to Erik for working through the night and a thank you to all of our loyal customers that stay committed to drinking delicious, sustainable coffee.  If you'd like to hire Erik to do some kind of fantastic art or craft project for you, send him an email at DesignErikBerg@gmail.com.

If you see us driving around your town, give us a shout out ("Bellezza!") and book us for a special event.  (What's that? Caffe Bellezza does weddings? Yep!)

Here's to every beautiful cup,

Tim
