Pick-cakes
Looking for a unique way to use custom guitar picks at a party? How about as cupcake decorations?! It seems that cupcakes, especially ones with extravagant fillings or frosting decoration, are becoming increasingly popular for events. What better way to make them stand out than with some custom guitar picks crowning the tops? Below is a photo sent to us by customer Deanna Vickers, who placed an order for custom guitar picks for a friend’s birthday party. As you can see, she attached the picks to toothpicks so that she could place them in the tops of the cupcakes to [...]
Strumming for the Cause
A couple weeks ago, we had the opportunity to make guitar picks to help support a wonderful cause. One of our customers, Justin Jacobs, has a passion for guitars and has recently been working on a very special project…building a guitar that he has christened the 65 Roses Guitar. Jacobs himself was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at the age of three, and he explains that kids that age have trouble saying “cystic fibrosis” and it ends up being pronounced like “sixty five roses.”
Because Cystic Fibrosis is still non-curable, Jacobs wanted to take action to help find a cure. He [...]
Strong as Steel
I thought that this design for custom guitar picks was an especially cool one. There is a high level of detail to the artwork, but even on the small guitar picks it comes out crisp and clean. This customer also utilized our “full bleed” option for the design. This means that, instead of having a border around their design, the art extends all the way to the very edge of the pick to allow maximum design space, and full coverage on the base pick material. Incidentally, the picks were made using [...]

We <3 Pearl
One of the best combinations for guitar pick materials and a custom design is the white pearl pick material 
with pink printing on it. Pink always turns out on our white pearl picks, and it looks vibrant and eye-catching on the marbleized background. They work perfectly for promotional items or for wedding favors. The design shown on the picks to the right is one that is frequently ordered by this particular Clayton customer. The design is sometimes done on our black [...]
Pick of the Week — Boss Fight
This week’s Pick of the Week is for the band Boss Fight. 
Boss Fight is a 4-piece (Kevin, Steve, John and Mikee) band from Chicago that plays pop punk. Boss Fight formed only about 9 months ago, and they played their first show on January 13th of this year (at the Subterranean in Chicago). According to band member Mikee, the Boss Fight music tastes contrast pretty strongly, so in the end they have an interesting blend of explosive pop punk riffs and more ambient bridge/breakdown segments. Mostly, they say [...]
