5 tips for your chic logo engraving

Want to put your own design on a drinking bottle? Want to create the most personalized drinking bottle ever for your dachshund club in the Black Forest, your summer wedding, your women's soccer team, or your best friend? Here are our 5 soulful tips for stylish engravings on our soulful glass drinking bottles .

We offer everyone the opportunity to create their own unique soulbottle – in no time at all. Starting with just one soulbottle, you can get started! Here are five tips, tutorials, and free tools to help you get everything running smoothly when it's time to get vectorized! Give your future soulmate a special soul.

Here you can see the difference between a pixel file and a vector file if you zoom in on the subject.

1. We love vector files: We accept anything ending in .ai, .eps, and .svg for custom soulbottle engraving. This way we know it's a vector file. Important: Many formats also accept pixel files, so please make sure your document is truly a vector file . Only with vector files can we guarantee our laser team that no files will arrive that display the logo blurry and pixelated. Even if you can't see it with your own eyes, from a technical perspective the graphics must be vectors. Clear lines are essential, especially when lasering. This also applies if your logo contains text. Simply convert them to paths, and we're on the safe side! At the end of this article, we've put together a list of good videos and, in some cases, free programs that we recommend for vectorizing files. Until then, read the remaining four points.

2. The devil is in the details: Your dream logo shouldn't be too detailed. Turning a playful and ornate graphic into a vector file can be quite complex. Furthermore, the vector file can become messy after you or a program vectorizes it. So try to keep it basic and clean. We can tell you from experience – it looks all the more stylish.

3. It's all about the square: Your future logo engraving will measure 6 x 6 cm (or even 7 x 7 cm for a 1.0 l). That doesn't mean we only work with square logos. Your file just has to be square. You can go wild with it – yes, you can create a round logo measuring 6 x 6 cm. Pretty wild, right?

4. Your pole position: The engraving takes on a fixed position on the bottle—your personalized laser engraving will be placed centrally and clearly visible on your future soulmate. The soulful vibes only come when you see it with your own eyes? We project your freaky logo live onto the drinking bottle in our logo engraving preview.

5. We produce with care: Your engraved soulbottle water bottle will usually reach you within 10 business days, but to be on the safe side, we'll allow up to 15 business days. Like little turquoise elves, after careful inspection, we'll laser your favorite design onto your water bottle. – each motif individually. As soon as we ship the engraved soulbottle, you'll be notified by email and can track the shipment. Then the bell will ring, and the soulbottle will be in your arms. Happy ending.

Please note: There are almost no limits to your originality! We have one more requirement: Please ensure that you own the rights or licenses for the uploaded logo. If this isn't the case, we will unfortunately have to cancel your order. This means no "Friends" logo or the Nike Swoosh as a logo engraving. But you can tell your favorite brand about us and how cool their logo would look on a soulbottle! :) Also: We do not engrave discriminatory content and reserve the right to cancel such orders without giving reasons.

Want a nerdy fun fact about vector files?

Here we go: While pixel files consist of individual points connected to each other, vector files consist of the connections between these points, which are continually recreated based on mathematical calculations. This allows you to zoom in infinitely on the vectorized file – it will never become blurry.
