Personalized Wedding Guest Book Leather Embossed with Foil

March 24, 2017 By Desiree Colonna

personalized wedding guest book

A personalized wedding guest book with leather embossed with foil makes a beautiful gift for any couple and can remain a keepsake forever by turning it into a journal of their experiences together.

Kim contacted me about a month ago to add a custom foil design on a leather journal she purchased online. At first, she looked on Google and couldn’t find anyone in Atlanta who could help. We were the only company offering this service on a journal she had already purchased.

Her and Nordia sought me out at the Whole Foods in Buckhead where I was engraving wine bottles on Valentine’s Day. They handed me the journal and asked me our calligraphers to design a logo for them which I would then foil onto the journal with silver foil. I was happy to do it for them.

My calligrapher, Jessica, and I started to work immediately on this personalized wedding guest book project. Jessica designed the modern calligraphy which you can see below.

I then took it and burned it into the leather with silver foil. You can see that process in the video below:

I even went a little further for the couple and added their favorite quote on the inside cover of the leather journal with the woodburner. “Commitment is the law of the heart.”

The result was a very happy couple and a very beautiful personalized wedding guest book!

If you have a leather bound journal or guest book you’d like to have personalized, please contact us at 833 465 9311 or click here to get started on your project!

We’re very excited about sponsoring our first Atlanta Perfect Wedding Guide Luncheon next Wednesday, August 24th. The Atlanta Wedding Guild sponsors events like these in conjunction with Atlanta Perfect Wedding guide every month for wedding vendors in and around Atlanta.

We received this wonderful write-up about our company in their email today and couldn’t wait to share it with the Atlanta wedding community and potential wedding clients. We intend to be a very active member of the Atlanta wedding community of vendors. This is just the beginning.

We’ll be at the event engraving giveaways of all types for attendees. In fact, every person will get a gift hand engraved by Desiree Colonna. For more details and to signup to attend the Atlanta Perfect Wedding Luncheon click here.

We hope to see you there! Come back for photos from the event if you can’t attend. They’ll be a lot of great pictures and surprises to share!

Liquor Bottle Etching Makes a Bourbon Birthday Gift Even More Special

August 6, 2016 By Desiree Colonna

liquor bottle etching

Liquor bottle etching creates a beautiful gift he’ll never forget. A client called and wanted to present his brother’s favorite bourbon in a special way for his birthday and asked us if we etched liquor bottles. He told us he had a special bottle of Blanton’s Bourbon he wanted to give his brother along with a special message to engrave on it.

We hand etched the brother’s nickname, “DIDIE” using a stippling effect using a dental drill. It was literally done dot by dot, outlining the exact font the client chose and then filling it in. The stippling matched the stopper on top of the bottle and really brought the entire design together.

Then we used free hand calligraphy to engrave the message on the liquor bottle. (There is truly nothing we can’t engrave calligraphy on in our shop. The only exception is plastic.)

The liquor bottle itself is molded in great shape that enhanced the calligraphy with its facets of glass. We engraved each letter in a facet so it would be centered on the front of the liquor bottle. We etched the birthday message and date on the back.

The etched liquor bottle was a big hit! The client’s brother didn’t even want to open it because it was so unique.

Liquor bottle etching is a lot of fun. We can get really creative depending on the shape of the liquor bottle itself. These bottles make fantastic gifts during the holidays for law firms, CPAs and other corporate gifts as well as great groomsmen and wedding gifts too.

We can’t wait for our next project. Call us when you’re ready at 833 465 9311.

Don’t forget we engrave wine bottles too… Check them out here.

Creating Hand Engraved Wedding Glasses

July 20, 2016 By Desiree Colonna

hand engraved wedding glasses

My brother is getting married this weekend in Montana so I designed a couple of hand engraved wedding glasses for him and his bride. They can use these wedding glasses both during the ceremony and for years to come as a remembrance of their special day. Their initials are M and M as you can see in the image. I added their wedding date and “Congratulations!” at the bottom of each wedding glass. I also added little hearts as a reminder of the love they share.

What’s really funny is I used a dental drill to hand engrave these wedding glasses. My brother is a dentist so the irony wasn’t lost on both of us.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it to the wedding and had to deliver these via FedEx. It worked out just fine. The hand engraved wedding glasses got there in one piece and they were able to use them the same day for a special toast.

I can customize and create any set of hand engraved wedding glasses for your favorite bride and groom. You can pick the glasses or we can use stock glasses. We’ll hand engrave and ship them directly to the happy couple via FedEx. Call us at 833 465 9311 or contact us here to order your hand engraved wedding glasses.

(If you live in the Georgia area, we can offer you same day service in most cases and depending on our schedule. Otherwise, please allow 7 to 10 days for delivery.)

Learning Personalized Hand Engraving

July 5, 2016 By Desiree Colonna

Learning Personalized Hand Engraving

A couple weeks ago Joe and I learned the art of personalized hand engraving glass and metal items of all kinds. Personalized hand engraving makes both wedding and corporate gifts even more unique. Adding calligraphy to these items adds a very personal touch you can’t get with an engraving or etching machine.

We are now regularly hired for wine events, fragrance counter events and by popular engraving and jewelry shops because it’s hard to find engravers who can engrave oddly shaped items such as:

  • wine bottles
  • beer glasses and growlers
  • power tools
  • fragrance bottles
  • motorcycle parts
  • guns
  • knives
  • swords
  • mirrors
  • compacts
  • jewelry boxes
  • crystal bowls and glassware
  • golf clubs
  • urns
  • china and porcelain
  • marble
  • slate

Joe and I are very proud to be the first at Inkwell Designers to learn personalized glass and metal engraving. We’re excited to offer this unique service to our customers. We even plan on expanding and having two to three more engravers on our team by the end of the year.

Since taking the class, nothing is safe in the house. Take a look at some of my examples here. (I’ve even gave my mom a hand engraved wine bottle for her 81st birthday! She loved it.)

Wine bottle and fragrance bottle engraving pricing can be found on this page but please call 833 465 9311 for custom glass and metal gift items. We’d love to help make your next wedding or corporate gift a big hit!
