Fabric and Leather shapes

Another little fabric cutting project. This time for Shine Jewelry .
Hundreds of silk, velvet, felt, and leather shapes Ahoy!



Jewelry Display Collection

We are very proud of a project we completed this week, designing and making a range of display objects for jewelry.
These were all made for Fado and Iconic Ireland who make jewelry here in Ireland and sell it locally and around the world. I hear they even have some stuff in a store back in good old Naperville Illinois.

Both complete ranges.


Nice stand for displaying necklaces and the like, with a fancy acrylic base. The green lettering is done in vinyl.


This display board comes apart in two pieces. The back piece slots right into the base, good and simple. The logo on all the Fado pieces is scored on with the laser.


Ring display boxes.


Bangle box, just a lager version of the ring display.

Here are a few Valentines Day card prototypes.

Let us know what which is your favorite.



iPod engraving

For my brothers coming birthday (this is Mike by the way) I decided to give him my old iPod touch. I figured this was a great opportunity to try out our new Cermark paste, which allows us to engrave on reflective steel.

The result was a lot better than I expected. It came out great and soon we should be able to add this to our list of services. I just need to try it out on my new scratch free ipod now and get some better photos to put on the website.

Oh that is a Jolteon, an electric Pokemon, if you were wondering.
