Yes, of course! Being wine lovers ourselves, we know how many great wineries there are out there. We also understand that different tastes, budgets and sentimental favorites all play an important role in wine selection.

StarCut Designs has an "Off-Sale Beer & Wine License" — we can provide you with almost any wine of your choice.

Please be aware that wine costs and etching costs will vary depending on your selection. Bottle shapes and size vary considerably between wineries and can affect etching space and difficulty.

You may also provide your own wine for etching. Please be aware that etching costs are slightly higher due to the labor costs of cleaning and preparing bottles for etching.

If you don't have a particular preference, we keep several popular wines in stock that we can recommend in various price ranges.

We recommend red wines.

Most of these wines come in cylinder-shaped bottles that have lots of room for your artwork. The dark burgundy color makes a beautiful background for any artwork & paint colors.

White wines can also be used, but keep in mind:

• The darker the glass, the better. Clear glass bottles show through on both sides and confuses the artwork on both sides of the bottle. Many chardonnays come in a yellow tinted glass, which clashes with gold and many other colors. Dark green glass looks much better.
• Artwork can only be etched on the cylinder part of the bottle. Curvy and rounded bottles limit artwork space considerably.

Yes, you can, BUT please keep in mind:

• The carbonation in champagne causes high internal pressure. Couple this pressure with imperfections in the glass and the etching process can cause breakage.
• Although we don't highly recommend using champagne, we will etch these bottles. However, we will not etch them as deep as regular wine bottles and we recommend keeping the bottles cold and drinking the champagne very soon after the etching process.
• We also have a way to just lightly engrave on the glass (no painting) which is less expensive and a less risky process.
  

If possible, we would love to have your artwork on disk or emailed to us. The best format is Adobe Illustrator (eps or ai) for Windows. If this is not possible, we can also convert other formats (e.g., tiff, jpg or photoshop) into artwork as well. In addition, please provide a hard copy of your artwork for quality verification.

If you do not have your artwork on computer or disk, it can also be scanned into our computer. Please provide "camera ready artwork" (a clean black and white hard copy) for us to scan in.
