Custom Made Bottle Openers - How to Make a Design That Pops!
If you’re looking to add some functionality to your next order, we’ve got you covered!
Bottle openers are some of the most popular gifts we help design. They come in all shapes and sizes, and they always seem to be a hit when they’re handed out at award ceremonies, trade shows, and other fun gatherings!
If you’re looking to add some functionality to your next order, we’ve got you covered! Here’s everything you need to know about making custom bottle openers!
Choosing a Custom Bottle Opener Type
The first thing to decide is what type of bottle opener you prefer. The two main types are internal and external bottle openers. Some internal bottle openers have big cut outs in the center of the design with an easy-to-use hook that grips bottle caps. No matter the shape, these bottle openers are immediately recognizable.
We’ve made bottle openers shaped like bottles, like skulls, and like dog tags, but there’s no end to what’s possible. If you have a specific shape in mind, just let us know! We’re always on the lookout for the next best design to share with our customers. If you’re having trouble thinking of a custom shape, try considering who will receive the bottle openers. For example, we’ve made a lot of custom challenge coin bottle openers for police departments over the years, and one of the most popular shapes is a handcuff! It’s a fun way to make the design feel personal and fun to the officers who receive the coins!
The second type of bottle opener design has an external hook feature that is less obvious than traditional bottle openers. We’ve seen coins shaped like saw blades where one of the saw teeth is a functional bottle opener, some of our customers prefer a round coin with a hook cut out into the shape, and there are all kinds of other ways to hide a bottle opener hook into the artwork.
What makes this type of bottle opener fun is that it’s not immediately obvious that there is a function to the design. If you have an idea for a custom-shaped design, and you’re not sure how to incorporate a bottle opener, just let us know! Our art team is more than happy to help you find a fun way to make it work!
Creating Your Bottle Opener Design
The design process for a custom bottle opener is fast and fun! All you need are a few ideas, and we’ll take it from there. Our professional art team provides free artwork and revisions, so tell us about all the shapes, colors, words, and other aspects you’d like to incorporate into your design! Keep in mind that bottle openers should be at least 2” in size. Any smaller, and the hook for the bottle opener will not function properly.
If you’re not sure where to start, it’s best to think about who the bottle openers are for and where you plan on handing them out. You might be able to draw some inspiration from event themes or group themes. It’s not a bad idea to include important dates, logos, and messaging as well.
Many of our military customers prefer to design challenge coin bottle openers. They’re great for boosting morale and celebrating everything that makes a team so special. Our corporate customers will oftentimes purchase keychain bottle openers with branded artwork. Sometimes they’re used as souvenirs and other times they’re used as giveaways at corporate events or trade shows.
