ILU Lettering Rome
Chalkboard and window lettering and design. I am Inese but you can call me ILU - which is combination of the initials of my name and surname.
I am Latvian, but I live in Rome for almost 10 years now. I have always been creative person with various creative projects going on at any given time (from knitting, sewing, decorating, cooking etc) but have never done it professionally. I have always been very good with languages, customer service, interpersonal skills so I have ended up working in the environments where my language and communic

Another Latvian picnic for the renewal of independence of Latvia. It's my third year of chalkboard signs to mark the moment and try something new every year.
Since this year I am looking after a 9 month old, I choose less challenging layouts in general so that chances of completing them are higher!
I have a very strong feeling that custom made signs are a great touch for any party and great time stamp for the photos!

Happy Easter!
This is a strange holiday for me living in Rome. In Latvia it is much more about awakening of the nature and arrival of the spring, whereas in Italy it is religious holiday.
So I still colour Easter eggs in natural dyes even if chocolate eggs are clearly more popular here!

I know that carnival season 2025 is over, however I have a small lettering project that hasn't been shared yet.
So I volunteered for my kid's carnival at elementary school and made cardboard signs for crafts stations run by other parents.
I think it came out pretty playful and cheerful. Added bonus - kids got to practice reading the dying art of script letters!
Material: recycled cardboard and acrylic markers + fun modern calligraphy

It's been a while since I last posted! I never wrote it publicly but I am on a maternity break, however I am thinking of starting to take on some projects if they are doable in this situation.
When I see a chalkboard with potential that is not used, I get all excited! I did an attention grabbing sign for a small but very well furnished shop in Testaccio market in Rome. There were a lot of items to include on one chalkboard, so I made each entry very distinct and different from others.
Would this colourful sign grab your attention?

Here is one of my wedding chalkboards to let the wedding guests know that they have arrived to the right church, and later same chalkboard waited then at the party location. This way there is no room for doubts - is this the right wedding?

Last week or so it has been a real spring feeling here in Rome.
I did some hand lettering in my sketchbook to put this colourful feeling on paper.
I used Pentel Brush Sign Pens, Tombow ABT brush pens and Sakura Pigma Micron pen for black outline of the letters.
