How to Make Your Own Finisher or Award Medals

If you've ever made custom award medals for an event, company team, athletic group, organization members, or honorary leaders, you know how important it is to have a simple process that allows you to customize the medals as needed. Here are some things to think about when ordering custom awards and finisher medals.

Choose your preferred size, which is usually between 1 and 5 inches. Keep in mind that pricing is determined by size and quantity. Choose between a one-sided and a two-sided medal. The vast majority of medals are on only one side. How many medals are required? Think about how many you'll need for your event or group. Can the medals be used for multiple events or in the future?

Choose a look

We have a wide range of styles and finishes available for your medal designs. We can make your design or vision come to life with the help of our designers. You can be assured of a perfect medal from our team if you choose the right style and finish.

1. Soft enamel will reveal all of your medal's details and valleys.

2. A flat, smooth surface with a classic "gleam" will characterize hard enamel.

3. Die struck refers to the traditional metal type that resembles a raised coin.

4. Diecast gives your design the option of a one-of-a-kind custom cutout shape and design.

Material color and finish options include shiny gold, shiny silver, antique gold, and others. Our finish options are available on our website at Badges-Pins. Choose how many additional colors you want your medals to have in your design. Be aware that having too many colors can be expensive and may not be feasible due to manufacturing constraints.

Remember to include a neck ribbon with your medals. Choose a ribbon width ranging from 75 to 1.5 inches or something in between. You can also add a custom design or text to the color of your choice of neck ribbon. Choose the best ribbon length and loop type (round or wide). The average length of a neck ribbon is about 30 inches. Related peoduct: Sport Double Side Medal with Ribbon.
