Custom Charms

.
.At Ellie Lance Creations we can create a custom charm just for you or
your organization.  Shown below are a few of the custom charms we have 
created for other companies/organizations.  Note:  These charms are not  
for sale - they are just an example of the different things we can do.  Please 
email us at sales@ellielance.com for more information.


















FAQ:

How much does creating a custom charm cost?  Ellie Lance Creations requires a $300 deposit be paid before we get our artists involved.  The cost of creating a custom charm varies depending upon the complexity and size of the design.  Another factor is whether or not the person/organization already has a logo.  Costs increase when our artists must "start from scratch".  The AVERAGE cost for art, set up and mold fees range from $300 - $500.    That deposit will be applied to the initial fees. The art, set up and mold fees are a “one time” charge and are never paid again as long as the same charm is reordered.

After the initial fees, how much does a finished charm cost?  The price of a charm depends upon its gram weight.  We can usually give an estimate, but until the charm is cast for the first time we don't know the exact price.  Most are usually between $6 and $10 depending upon the price of silver at the time of casting.

How soon can I get a custom charm made?   You need to allow at least 6-8 weeks from the time you pay the $300 deposit until you have a sample to view.  Sometimes things can go faster, but it is safer not to push the deadline!  The more lead time the better!

Do I get to approve the design before a sample is made?  Yes, we will fax or email a copy of the artist's drawing before we have a mold made and actually cast a sample.

Will I get to see a sample of the charm before I have to place the minimum order?  Yes, we will send a sample for you to preview. 

Is there a minimum order?  Yes, the minimum order requirement is usually 100 pieces for the first order.  To reorder, you can usually order as few as 50.

How long does it take to receive re-ordered charms?  Please allow 3-4 weeks for re-ordered charms.

So I have a custom charm made, will I have to pay the art/setup/mold fees again to have a pewter key fob and/or zipper pull made also?  Unfortunately, yes, because the process for making a silver charm and a pewter key fob is different; however, sometimes we can offer a discount if you do both at the same time.
