Bespoke glitter Stickers manufactured to order, with material and finish chosen around how the product ships.
No obligation
Name, email, phone and what you are packing. Attach artwork if you have it. We reply with a specification and a written price, usually within one business day.
Glitter Stickers hold artwork on a substrate with suspended reflective particles. That is the starting point for the specification, because glitter substrates suit bold shapes and heavy type. Anything under about 8pt disappears into the texture.
In service they are used for children's products, seasonal merchandise and craft retail.

A glitter-laminated vinyl. The glitter is in the film rather than printed, which is what makes it durable.
The options we would consider for this format are below; glitter substrates suit bold shapes and heavy type. Anything under about 8pt disappears into the texture.
Print sits on top of the glitter, so ink coverage dulls the effect wherever it is solid. Leave areas unprinted for the sparkle to show.
Digital eco-solvent printing, UV inkjet, Screen printing are all available for this format. Run length usually decides which is cheapest: digital removes the plate cost on short quantities, offset and flexo overtake it at volume.
Four things drive a quote more than anything else: the quantity, the print route, the board grade and the number of finishing passes. Dimensions matter too, but usually through how efficiently the shape nests on the press sheet.
Prices start from $0.30 per piece for large-volume orders. If a cheaper route exists we say so at quoting rather than after the invoice.
Print sits on top of the glitter, so ink coverage dulls the effect wherever it is solid. Leave areas unprinted for the sparkle to show.
Each finish below is a separate pass on the press or the finishing line, which is why they are quoted individually rather than bundled.
Small formats work best; large flat areas of glitter read as busy rather than special.
Send the contents rather than a box size. A detailed logo is placed on a glitter stock, and the texture destroys exactly the detail that identified it.
Provide vector artwork with the cut path on its own layer, and keep 3 mm of bleed outside the cut line.
Supply a print-ready PDF or vector file with fonts outlined and images at 300 dpi. Our prepress team checks every file before a proof is issued. On a die-cut face the check that matters most is clearance between live copy and the cut edge.
Send the product dimensions, the quantity and your deadline. What comes back is a board grade, a structure, a print method, a lead time and a written price — not a number on its own.
You approve the quote, we send the dieline, prepress proofs it, and production follows. The proof stage is where changes are still free.
We can produce a plain unprinted sample so you can check the fit and structure of glitter stickers before committing.
Sample costs are normally credited against the production order.

In practice
Small formats work best; large flat areas of glitter read as busy rather than special.
Fine detail and small text disappear into the glitter texture, so the design becomes illegible.

This format sits in our custom stickers range, alongside 25 other made-to-order formats.
Answers
Specification, minimums and lead times for glitter stickers.
On offset and flexo we hold the ink formulation, which gives a tight match run to run. Digital has a wider tolerance. If exact consistency across repeat runs matters more than short-run economics, we will quote the litho route.
Only with a suitable face stock and laminate. Standard paper stickers fade and lift within weeks outside. Vinyl with a UV laminate lasts considerably longer, and we will specify it if you tell us where they are going.
Send the current specification or a physical sample and we will quote to match it rather than proposing an alternative you would then have to re-approve internally. A physical sample tells us more than a specification sheet — board caliper and coating are usually described loosely and measured exactly.
All 50 US states, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia, on the same timeline everywhere: 3 to 5 business days of production after artwork approval, then 5 to 7 business days in transit. Every run is made to order and shipped directly to your address rather than pulled from stock, so you receive current production rather than whatever has been sitting in a warehouse. Freight is costed separately by weight, volume and destination. Roll-form work travels well and takes very little space, so freight is rarely the deciding cost on this format even at high quantities.
Every run is cut to your dimensions — there are no stock sizes here. Send the product measurements rather than a box size and we will build the sticker around them, then send a dieline template you can design onto.
We issue a dieline template sized to your product, prepress checks your artwork against it, and a proof comes back for sign-off. Nothing runs until you approve that proof, and stickers then take 3 to 5 business days.
Yes. Once a first run is approved we hold the board, structure, dimensions, print method and finishes against your account, so a reorder references the same specification exactly rather than being re-derived. That includes the ink formulation, which is what keeps a brand colour consistent between runs rather than drifting a shade each time.
Recycled grades are available across most of the substrates we run for stickers. Recycled content, kerbside recyclability and certified compostability are three different claims though, so tell us which one you intend to print.
A print-ready PDF or a vector file, with fonts outlined and any raster images at 300 dpi at final size. We supply the dieline to design onto, and prepress checks bleed, safe area and crease clearance before issuing a proof. On a die-cut face, keep live copy clear of the cut edge — a small amount of movement on the die is normal and copy set to the edge will lose it on some of the run.
A flat 100 units on any format. Most stickers in this range are quoted from 100 units upward because unit cost falls sharply above that, but the minimum exists so you can validate a structure first.
3 to 5 business days after artwork approval, plus freight. Sticker runs with applied finishes can take longer because each finish is a separate pass, and we confirm a firm date in writing with the quote.
Prices start from $0.30 per piece for large-volume orders. For this format the biggest levers are quantity, print route, board grade and how many finishing passes are involved. We quote each element separately so you can see where the money is going. Finishing passes are the lever buyers most often underestimate: each one is a separate run through the line.
