What you can design

How the plaque maker works

  1. Choose a shape and size. Rectangles, ovals, circles and shaped plaques from 4 inches to 48 inches wide.
  2. Add your wording. Type names, dates and a message. Change the lettering style and size for each line.
  3. Add a border, motif or image. Pick from hundreds of motifs, or upload a logo or a photograph.
  4. Pick a finish. Dark bronze, black or a colour background, with raised polished lettering.
  5. See the price. The price updates with every change, with free shipping across the USA included.
  6. Save and order. Save the design to your account, order when you are ready, and receive a professional proof by email before casting.

Why design it yourself

Designing online means you see the plaque before you spend anything. You can try three sizes in a minute, test a script font against a serif, and move a motif until the layout feels right. Because the price is shown live, there is no waiting for a quote and no surprise at checkout. When you order, a real designer still checks every detail and sends a proof, so you get the control of doing it yourself with the safety of a professional review.
