Nere are the answers to some of the most popular questions that we receive.

Badges
What are the sizes of the badges and how are the badges fastened
Diameters of the circular badges are 45mm, 57mm and 77mm. We also have rectangular badges which are 60 x 40mm and heart shaped badges that are approx. 45mm at the widest part
The badges are fastened with a safety pin.
If the badge is for a small child then we will use a pinless safety clip instead of a safety pin.

Can I mix the sizes of the badges
Of course. In fact one of the ways that we suggest for setting the hen, stag or birthday boy or girl apart from the rest is to have a larger size of badge for them
Can I design my badge on line ?
You can select your design, add the text and see the effect of changing the rosette colours. Unfortunately at this time we do not have the facility for you to design your own – but we can email an example of any badge design and colour combination that you require
Sashes
What size are the sashes
The sashes are 1.8M (6 feet long and are 100mm (approx 4 inches) wide
Can I order sashes that are not your-standard length
Yes. If these are for children or taller adults or being worn over outdoor clothing - just tell us the length you require. Our standard sashes are 1.8M (6 feet) and are fastened at the hip. Just mention any special requirement in the notes section when you order
How are the sashes fastened
We supply the sashes as a length of printed ribbon together with self adhesive 'hook and loop' strips so that you can optimise the fit of the sash and then apply the fasteners. the sash is then ready to be worn.
Can I have more than one line of print on my sash
Yes - but please bear in mind that the sash is 4 inches (100mm) wide. We can normally fit 2 lines of text on a sash which is then reasonably visible at a distance. In theory you could have more lines, but they would be difficult o read at a distance.
Why do you not offer all text colours on every ribbon colour
Our popular colours for text are black, metallic silver and metallic gold. The black looks best on the lighter ribbon colours and the metallic colours look good on all colours, but especially so on the darker ribbon.
Our other colours such as white, pink, green, orange don't always print as good as we expect on certain colours because the intensity of the ribbon colour can interfere with the text colour and impart a colour tinge to the text e.g. the white text on black has a slight grey tinge whereas white on pink is fine. The options that we show are the ones that we recommend.

Can I have a special font
We show a list of the popular fonts on the order page, which comprises a combination of sans serif, serif and script. If you have a particular font then we can use it provided we have a license or it is available for commercial use. If it is only available for personal use then we cannot use it.
Is there a limit to the text we can add to a sash, rosette centre or badge ?
No , and we do not charge by the letter- but there is limited space. The more text – the smaller it will be
Can you add a logo to our sash order ?
Provided you have the authority to use the logo , then just send it with your order – but note we can only print sashes in single colours, so any logo would be in one colour – which would be the same as any text on the sash
