You can own a Mirthful Creations sculpture in two ways: By commissioning a custom masterpiece designed specifically for your space, or by purchasing an available piece from my current collection. Custom commissions are the most popular option for clients looking to create something truly one-of-a-kind and deeply meaningful.
-
Yes! Rachael occasionally creates smaller or “inventory” style pieces that are available for immediate purchase. These are perfect for collectors who want to own a Mirthful Creations original, but don’t have the budget for a masterpiece.
Availability is limited and more apt to be available around the time of competitions, holidays, or demonstration events. Please check social media pages for more up-to-date inventory or reach out directly.
-
Each sculpture is uniquely priced based on size, level of detail, design complexity, materials, and travel requirements (if applicable). My custom masterpieces typically range from $4,000 to $20,000+, reflecting the time, craftsmanship, and artistry that goes into each piece. Rachael is happy to provide a personalized quote based on your vision.
-
Wait times vary depending on Rachael’s current project schedule and travel commitments. On average, clients can expect anywhere from 1-24 months from design approval to completion. Time expectations will always be communicated during design consultation. If you have a specific deadline, I recommend reaching out as early as possible to reserve your spot.

Mirthful Creations is more than a sculpture; it’s a statement piece, a conversation starter, and a reflection of your story. Each piece is handcrafted with intention, designed to bring joy, inspiration, and natural beauty into your space. Rachael specializes in creating bold, meaningful artwork that stands out and lasts for generations.
-
Yes, Rachael travels across the United States to carve on-site for clients, events, and installations. This allows your piece to be created specifically for its environment and often becomes a memorable experience in itself.

Each sculpture is created to last, and proper care will keep it looking its best for years to come.

We start with your vision; whether it’s a specific idea, theme, price-point, or feeling you want to capture. Rachael will create a design concept, collaborate with you on any refinements, and once approved, bring your piece to life through the carving process.
-
Rachael specializes in high-end, nature-inspired sculptures; especially aquatic life like fish! But Rachael also enjoys creating wildlife, human forms, and custom conceptual pieces. If it has meaning to you, we can bring it to life in wood.

Yes, custom commissions require a usual 25% deposit to secure your spot in my schedule and begin the design process. The remaining balance is typically due upon completion or prior to delivery.
-
Delivery options depend on the size and location of the piece. Rachael offers personal delivery, on-site installation, or freight shipping for larger sculptures. We’ll determine the best option based on your project to ensure your piece arrives safely and beautifully.
-
Rachael’s sculptures are designed to last indoors and outdoors. Whether the carving is in a stump still in the ground or on an elevated surface, your carving can last for generations to come. Rachael considers the type of wood, sealing techniques, finishing process, and installation placement to prepare for the longevity of the carving.
Please refer to Rachael’s carving care guide for more information regarding maintenance tips for your carving, located on the services page!

Yes, I carry insurance for both on-site carving and event demonstrations. Safety and professionalism are a top priority, and I take all necessary precautions to ensure a secure and smooth experience for clients, guests, and properties.
