Engraving Information

Classic Design Awards offers professional engraving on almost all merchandise. Allow our experts to create designs that best fit your awards and relay a meaningful message to the recipient. There are several ways you can send us your engraving instructions:

Send Engraving Instructions on Order Form: For your convenience, a text box is located on the order page where you can type out engraving instructions. If you are ordering different styles of awards, be sure to specify what engraving goes on each award.

E-Mail Engraving Instructions: You can e-mail your order and even include a Microsoft Word file, as an attachment, that shows your layout as you would like it to appear on the awards. (Please fax a hard copy so we're sure to match fonts.)

Fax Engraving Instructions: If you wish to choose any particular fonts, sizes, or other specifics, we ask that you fax a rough sketch to us at (847)470-0857.
