Creating your Cashman Laser Etched Crystal
How To Design and Order
Step 1
Select a Crystal
Cashman Laser Etched Crystals come in many shapes and sizes. You can find 3D hearts, rectangles, and cubes. They also offer 2D squares, hearts, and circles. It is important to consider the photo for your design when choosing a crystal. Close up photos of 1-3 people (or pets) look great in most shapes but really stand out in 3D Hearts and 3D Jewel Cubes. Our 3D Rectangle Cube is the most versatile since it can be oriented vertically or horizontally. Vertical is best for 1-3 full bodies or “busts” while horizontal is perfect for large groups or capturing a scene.
Step 2
Upload your Photo
Your photo is the star of the design! Choose your favorite .jpg image and upload it directly form your phone, tablet, or computer in the highest resolution you have. Our Crystal Artists will get your image ready for laser-etching. They will enhance details, crop it, and turn your photo into a 3D masterpiece if needed.
(note: added fees for layout design are only charged one time. You can re-use the same design without added cost!)
Step 3
Consider adding text
Laser Etched Crystals are often used to commemorate a special achievment, relationship, or moment in time. Consider adding some text to celebrate an anniversary, wedding, graduation, or life well lived. Yo can add up to two lines of text to most crystals. Our Crystal Artists will place your text in the perfect location for your design.
(note: added fees for text in your design are only charged one time. You can re-use the same design without added cost!)
Step 4
Special Requests for your Design
Now that you have chosen all the parts of your design, our Crystal Artists can start creating the layout for your Laser Etched Crystal! They will adjust your photo, convert it to 3D if needed, and add your text in a high-impact artful presentation. If you have any notes you’d like to share about the design, please let us know in the section provided.
Don’t worry! We will email a rendering of your Crystal Design for approval before the etching starts.
If you need help with the design process, please CALL US! We have real people to talk to. You can reach us Monday to Saturday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm (Pacific Time). If those hours are inconvenient, fill out THIS FORM and a Crystal Artist will respond as soon as possible.
Step 5
Add a Light Base (optional)
Our LED light bases are designed specifically for displaying your laser etched crystal masterpiece in the perfect light! All light bases feature an array of 7 pure white light emitting diodes (leds) and included an AC adapter. A cut crystal square base is included with 3D Heart Gift Sets and 3D Jewel Cube Gift Sets. A larger, crystal-cut rectangle base is available. It can be used as a second base for a gift set or any other crystal we offer. We also offer a sleek, ROUND crystal base that can be powered by (3) AAA batteries
Step 6
Add to Cart and Checkout
Once your design is complete and ready to purchase, consider adding additional crystals of the same design. Simply change the quantity if you’d like more than one of the same size and shape crystal before adding to your cart. Remember, the “design cost” only applies to the first crystal you order. There is no cost to reuse the same design.
You’ll also have the opportunity to create an account at checkout. Your secure account will show your order status and history. It will also store any designs you create and shipping addresses for you and gift recipients. You can also opt-in to seasonal promotion emails and texts.
