Have you ever wondered how sign makers get all of the letters and images perfectly spaced and positioned?

Here’s a little trick we use…cardboard. It’s cheap and cuts beautifully on a CO2 laser.

We cut the template of the entire sign out of cardboard so we can stick the letters or graphics in perfect placement 🎉.

Our new addition arrived today 🎉.

Do you know what it is?
It’s an industrial heat press.

Do you know what that means?
It means we are adding APPAREL🎉

Very soon we will be able to do custom shirts, hoodies, and more.

Thank you to everyone who continues to call on us for all your personalization and branding needs.

We are so excited to start this next phase in our growing business.

Remember the champagne flutes I showed a while back all painted black? This is what I turned them into. They were for an anniversary party held last weekend. 🥂.

I was honored to be asked to make a gift for a wonderful couple who just celebrated 35 years of marriage🎉.
They wanted a family tree sign. To make it unique to their family I asked for a list of everyone’s favorite colors. I then reverse printed on clear acrylic everyone’s names and their favorite colors onto the hearts. 😊

When I was asked to donate something for a benefit supporting a dear friend who is currently battling cervical cancer, I knew I wanted to create something special.

I reached out to Andy at Starving Artist Brewing Co to see if I could put together a Starving Artist themed gift basket for the benefit. Without hesitation, he said yes! Then he went above and beyond by donating a pint glass, T-shirt, and a $50 gift card to include in the basket.

This is the kind of generosity that makes our local business community so special.

I’m incredibly grateful to partner with them to support someone who means so much to me. 💛

If you are able please come show your support this Saturday August 15, 2026 at the American Legion in Ludington from 1-5pm.

It’s the little details that make a gift truly unforgettable.

This engraved wedding tray was made even more meaningful when the couple’s aunt tracked down the exact font from their wedding invitations so I could incorporate it into the design.

It’s thoughtful touches like this transform a beautiful gift into a keepsake that tells a story. 🤍
