CUSTOM OPTIONS

Custom Lapel Pins Options

When creating custom lapel pins with MGMcrafts, you might wonder about the available customization choices. We’ve broken down all standard options to help you shape pins that fit your needs—whether for branding, events, or memorabilia. If you need extra custom details, just let our team know. Here are some custom lapel pins options below.

Plating & Finishes for Lapel Pins

The plating of your lapel pins sets their core visual style, and we offer a range of finishes to match your vision:

Antique Finishes: For a vintage, timeless look, choose antique gold, silver, brass, or copper—ideal for pins with a classic, nostalgic vibe.
Shiny Finishes: To make your pins stand out with bright, eye-catching luster, opt for shiny gold, silver, brass, copper, or black nickel.
Two-Tone Finishes: Highlight specific design details (like logos or text) with dual plating, which creates sharp, distinct color contrasts.
Dyeing: If plating isn’t right for your design, dyeing is a flexible alternative. Black dye is a popular pick, and we also offer hues like purple and pink.

For more details on plating or dyeing, reach out at sales@mgmcrafts.com.

Textures

Coin texture refers to surface treatments applied to specific coin areas, creating raised/recessed patterns (like crosshatching or spots). Shiny metal surfaces (from polished raw materials and thick plating) often glare excessively (mirror-like), but textures and antique finishes reduce this brightness.

Why coin texture works:

It diffuses light to soften glare, makes text/logos/relief details stand out, adds depth to plain backgrounds, and textured backs prevent scratches during transit.

Best of all: Textures are integrated into molds (for both 2D/3D designs) at no extra cost. Custom textures are also available—just share your ideas with our team.

Backing Options for Lapel Pins

The backing of a lapel pin determines how it attaches—we offer practical, user-friendly choices:

Butterfly Clutch: The most common option: small, lightweight, and easy to use for everyday pin-wearing.
Rubber Clutch: A budget-friendly, durable choice, often used for bulk orders of promotional pins.
Magnetic Backing: A no-pierce alternative (great for delicate fabrics) that uses strong magnets to keep pins secure.
Safety Pin Backing: A reliable, traditional option—ideal for larger or heavier pins that need extra stability.

Packaging

Our packaging keeps your custom pins protected while adding to their presentation, with cost-effective options:

Poly Bag: A free standard package, perfect for bulk orders where display isn’t a focus (helps keep overall costs low).
Velvet Pouch: A soft, sleek bag that adds a touch of elegance—available at a low additional cost.
Velvet Box: A premium, polished case that showcases pins beautifully (great for gifting)—available at a low additional cost.

Custom Backer Cards

Custom backer cards are a professional way to highlight the charm of your custom lapel pins and effectively promote your brand, organization, or event. Mounting your pin on a custom backer card adds value to both the product and your brand. MGMcrafts offers free design for backer cards, with almost any size available and full-color printing options (single or double-sided).

To help you save costs, we recommend using no more than 4 colors on the backer card. We can print custom patterns based on your requirements, often incorporating your logo. The size and design are fully customizable to meet your needs.

MGMcrafts provides a variety of upgrades to make your custom lapel pins more functional and distinctive. Enhance your custom enamel pins with options like Rhinestones, Glitter Colors, Silkscreen, hand engraving, Laser engraving, Epoxy Coating, or glow-in-the-dark enamel paints.
