Lapel Pins – Custom Lapel Pins | Pins UnlimitedPins Unlimited Custom Lapel Pins

The design of a lapel pin is second only to the manufacturing and material quality. We have been designing lapel pins for years, and it’s more than just about designing lapel pins, it’s about creatively solving a problem at a very small size! A lot of times, lapel pins must tell a big story at a 1″ or smaller size, so it’s up to our designers to harness their creative abilities to come up with a solution for each and every lapel pin we design. A lot of times, businesses wish to use their logo and a simple slogan, some times their logo is readily available, however most of the time this isn’t the case, and each logo must be recreated entirely from scratch, typically even re-illustrating complex images and recreating fonts just for a single pin design. Often times a lot of our customers need to fit quite a bit of wording onto a lapel pin…this can be tricky since letters are very thin, and color-filling small areas on lapel pins is a very tedious job.

A lapel pin design typically starts with a logo, image, or idea/concept that needs to be portrayed. Sometimes our customers want a pin to depict certain events or ideas through imagery, or metaphorically conveying their message, other times, they simply want wording or text in a unique font. We start creating the design the moment we receive the request, because getting artwork back promptly is one of our top priorities. We are usually able to complete a design in 15 minutes to 2 hours, depending of course on the complexity, and whether certain logos or images are readily available in a high quality format. Our artists use only the latest graphic design software, and we keep our systems and software updated to make sure we’re at the leading edge of the industry.

Our lapel pin designers are constantly innovating new methods and ways for designing lapel pins, as well as optimizing their design eye, and learning about new graphic design styles and techniques… It’s a never-ending learning process, and we enjoy staying ahead of the game! In the world of advertising and promotions, new design directions are always emerging, so we subscribe to the most innovative and latest design blogs, publications and installments out there.
