Looking for a school fundraiser that actually means something?

It's not just another trinket—it's a collectible piece of history.

Design Guidelines & Artwork Prep

To get the best possible results in glass, your design needs to be clean, bold, and high quality. Here’s how:

• Preferred file types: .ai, .eps, .pdf, or .svg with outlined text

• Accepted raster files: .jpg, .png, .tiff at 300 DPI or higher

• Avoid: low-res images, web graphics, or files embedded in Word or PowerPoint

• No Photos or Faces: We cannot press photos, facial portraits, or complex illustrations into glass. These details often fail to reproduce and result in disappointment. Stick to bold, silhouette-friendly images like mascots, shields, banners, or type-based designs.

Not sure what works? Our team is happy to advise on whether your logo or idea is press-friendly.
