Comprehensive Guide to Custom Ornaments

Our products are etched from solid brass with a variety of finish options, including 24k gold, rhodium silver, brass antique, or brass lacquer. Contact our sales team to discuss custom finishes. We also have infinite color options to make your ornament unique!

There are a few different ways to design your custom ornament. You can work with a designer to create a unique design from scratch, or you can use online tools to create your own design. Many ornament makers also offer pre-designed templates that you can customize with your own text and images.

After our clients have reached out to us about creating a custom ornament for their organization, we begin with our five step process.
