Welcome!

Thanks for your patience - we are still loading content

After a much thought about the best way to present our goods and services on the web, we have concluded that there is no best way...so we have tried to use the same format we use in our shop. We keep a small inventory in the shop and have included "inventory items" on a few of these pages. Often, we will suggest an item that must be ordered and will show you catalogs of the item(s) we recommend. We have done the same for the web site by linking to catalogs of suppliers we use and trust.

This may be a "just browsing" visit, in which case, we hope the main page graphics or the methods menu will answer some of your questions. Basically, our answer to "I wonder if you can do....." or "I wonder if you can get......", is, more often than not, YES! Remember, a telephone call or E-Mail is always welcome.

Keep in mind that while we provide the material (plaques, silver items, garments etc.) for about 70% of our personalizations, fully 30% are brought in or sent to us by our customers.

We haven't designed the site to be totally "click and buy", but knowing that some visitors prefer to shop that way, we are in the process of experimenting with a few items that may be purchased that way.

Some examples of items we said YES! to are;

• Engraved the blade of a Samurai Swoard using Japanese Charicatures.
• Routinely engrave very small (0.08 inch height) birth dates, times and weights on baby frames.
• Laser engraved the score of a championship game on leather Footballs.
• Laser engraved a dedicatory message on a cross section of a recently cut Oak Tree
• Sand Carved a name and small graphic on a piece of natural stone.
• Digitized a 1938 Ford truck from an old photo and embroidered the design on the owner's jacket.
• Modified an heirloom kitchen utensil for permanent mounting on a custom walnut base.
• Engraved a name and date on the receiver of a 9mm pistol.

So, if you want us to embroider a saddle pad or collar or engrave something for your tack room, We Will!. If you need a tote bag for a student or grand-student, We'll get it! For the record, we also do awards for dairy cattle, winter wear for dogs and cats, and leads for boer goats and llamas, Whatever it is, it doesn't hurt to ask!

KENTUCKY JULEP CUP

The Kentucky Julep Cup is in constant demand, both as an Award and as a Gift Representative of the Traditions of Kentucky. Juleps are either Pewter or Silverplate and both are in stock. Sterling Juleps (New and Estate) are available, but not always in stock. Browse the SILVER & PEWTER section for details on these and similar items.

GLASSES, MUGS, DECANTERS & VASES

Champagne flutes for Bride and Groom are the most common glass item to be Laser Engraved. It is surprising though how an inexpensive set of glassware is transformed with a bold lasered monogram, or how a plain Crystal piece (with sufficient surface area) becomes a unique Award with the addition of sand carved text.

AWARDS & IDENTIFICATION

The term "Awards" can be applied to many items, but in this case, we will think of an award as one of the many combinations of plaques and plaque plates. Identification refers to badges and a full range of signs from plastic through cast Bronze. We havent illustrated all of them on these pages, but we have provided links and we will respond to E-mail or phone inquiries.

CAPS AND JACKETS AND SHIRTS ......

Caps consume about a third of our shop time. We have several embroidery machines and that allows us to accept orders that vary in size from the single cap for grandpaw's birthday to 500 - 600 caps for a corporate event. We also provide baseball and softball caps and visors for all age levels. We stock and recommend Richardson caps, but we also work with other suppliers. Shirt and Jacket order sizes also range from five shirts for the bowling team through 12 Safety Award Jackets for a construction crew through 500-600 shirts for a school, manufacturing unit, horse farm or charity golf tournament. We do our own digitizing in-house so turn around for design work is not an issue.

HORSE AND RIDER

We don't stock Collars, Saddle Pads, Saddle cloths, and Coolers, but we will monogram yours. Some riders choose a personal monogram while others elect to embroider the horse's name. Other options are to embroider the logo of the Farm, Stable or Trainer and in the case of younger riders, graphics such as ladybugs, turtles or even castles.
