We didn't tip the calligrapher. But if she went above and beyond your expectations its a really nice gesture.

Typically you don't tip people who are working for themselves....they keep all the money you give them!

You don't really have to tip someone working for themselves but this lady sounds very nice, doind it by hand and staying up all night to get it done and all.........

Thanks!!! She did them extra fast for me. I dropped them off on Sat PM and she had them done last night, she stayed up late. I guess an extra $10 would be good right?

$10 is perfect...she may even try to refuse!

I wouldn't normally, but in this case, yes.
$10 is good.
if she refuses & you still want to, maybe you could send her a little gift after the fact.
