About this Product
Preserve your cherished memory by having it engraved into wood. These are truly one of a kind keepsakes that can take that special photo and bring it to the next level. The magic is being able to see the woodgrain and how fine of detail can be burned into the surface. Typical, or custom sizes available. Send us a message if you are interested in a unique shape or size.
We engrave your photo onto 1/4" thick birch or maple plywood and finish with several coats of clear finish. Alligator hanging tabs are epoxied onto the back so they can be hung on a wall. We will engrave your photo without any boarders and the corners will be gently rounded unless otherwise specified.
For best results, please send the highest resolution image you can. Photos with good contrast and light backgrounds will look the best. We will let you know if we think we need to modify your photo substantially to make it look really nice, but generally we try to capture exactly what the photo has captured and reproduce it onto wood.
When you send us your photo, we assume you have the full rights to use it and will not question it. We respectfully ask that you verify with your photographer, if the image was professionally captured, if they require attribution be added.
Processing time is typically 1-3 days + shipping.
LaserInspired
Meet the Maker
Would you believe my shop began with mealworms? During covid it seemed impossible to source mealworms for my ducks and chickens, so I started growing my own. Harvesting and sorting the mealworms was a time consuming task, but I found a smart system that used different sized 'filter' slots cut into acrylic. They had to be very precise and I learned the ones I was using were cut with a laser. I looked into the laser machines and immediately became inspired as to what they can do. It wasn't long before I took the plunge and bought my own machine. Laser Inspired was born! Countless hours of practice and trying all sorts of different combinations of materials, settings and functions, have honed my skills. Now its time to put this baby to work! I push the limits of my machine to achieve extraordinary results (being a perfectionist helps too!).
Currently I operate a CO2 laser that has the capability to cut and engrave nearly any non-metallic material. What you can see on here on my GoImagine Shop is only a spattering of what my business offers. You can also find other items on my website at https://www.laserinspired.com . Thanks for reading my story and best wishes to you - happy shopping!
Shop Policies
Typical Sequence of an Order:
1. Place your order. Make sure to reach out if you have any special requests or questions. I will respond very quickly.
2. I will begin working on your item(s) and for most items, I will send you a digital mockup of your item to verify everything looks good. Your prompt responses are critical for timely production.
3. Actual production can take 1-4 days depending on the product. Many of my products have finish that gets applied after engraving which can take a couple days of drying/curing to be strong enough to package and ship. Please note the production time mentioned in the item description.
4. I package and ship your item(s) using the most efficient and cost effective means possible. Most of the time that is USPS Ground advantage which takes 2-5 days. Other shipping methods are available, select the appropriate one at checkout.
5. After you have received your item please leave a positive review with photos.
Mock-up/Changes Policy (where applicable)
Every item I produce requires a certain amount of design time and I have calculated the minimum amount of time necessary into each item's cost. I want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase and the mockup process will insure that. Once you have accepted the mockup, no further changes can be made. I have to limit the number of mockups that I send in order to remain profitable and for most items that is 1 mockup and 1 revision. If you want to tweak the design or make additional changes beyond that there may be additional fees.
Returns/Refunds
Most items I produce are personalized and I cannot accept returns on personalized or custom items. However, if your item arrives damaged and there is no sign of mishandling by the shipping company, I will make it right. I know how rough packages can be treated and I tend to over-protect my products for shipping. Damage as a result of the shipping company will require photographic proof of the item and the packaging in order to submit a claim to the shipper. This claim is submitted by you to the shipping company but I am happy to help any way that I can.
Satisfaction Guarantee
I want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase. If you are not satisfied, please let me know immediately, and I will take any appropriate actions to rectify the situation either by replacement or refund.
