How personalization works

Many items can be personalized with a name, date or short message.

Which products can be personalized?

Most coasters, bookmarks and keepsake pieces in the shop can be personalized. This includes adding a first name, a couple's names, a short date, or a brief message. The listing on Etsy will indicate what is available for each piece — and you can always message the seller to confirm before ordering.

Where do I enter personalization details?

On the Etsy listing page, look for the 'Add your personalization' field in the order form. Enter your text there before adding to cart. If the field is not visible, message the seller first and they will guide you through the next step.

What can I personalize with?

  • A first name or pair of names (e.g. 'Emma' or 'Emma & James')
  • A date (e.g. a wedding date, birthday or anniversary)
  • A short message of up to two or three lines
  • A pet name for memorial pieces
  • A custom phrase for themed gifts

Can I message before I order?

Yes, and it is often the easiest way to get it right. Use the Etsy message function on the shop page to describe what you want. The seller replies quickly and will confirm the options, layout and any limits before you place the order.

What happens after I order?

Once the order is placed with your personalization details, the seller begins making the piece to order. You will receive an Etsy notification when it ships. If anything needs clarifying, the seller will reach out through Etsy messages before starting production.

What if I make a mistake in my personalization?

Contact the seller through Etsy as soon as possible after ordering. Because each piece is made individually, corrections are usually possible if caught early. The seller will confirm what can be adjusted and how.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for visitors who want a faster decision path.

Is personalization included in the price?

Personalization costs vary by product. Check the Etsy listing for pricing details — some pieces include it, others have a small addition. Messaging the seller first is the fastest way to confirm.

How long does a personalized order take?

Personalized pieces are made to order, so allow a few extra days beyond the standard processing time shown on Etsy. The listing will give an estimated dispatch window, and the seller can advise on rush orders.

Can I see a preview before the piece is made?

In many cases, yes. Message the seller with your personalization request and ask for a preview. This is especially useful for complex layouts or when exact positioning matters.
