About Us
Products & Gifts for Every Occasion
At Lasered Edges, we help you create personalized products using your own photos, images or logo. Besides photos and logos, you can use your team insignia, your child’s artwork, or create your own design using the images available in our personalization section.
What is a personalized product? It is anything you want it to be, and it can be for your personal use, as a gift, as a business promotion, for your event/reunion/team – it is up to you. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination. Some examples…
- a tumbler with a picture of the company sports team on one side and their winning score on the other
- a photo panel with a collage of the kids/grandkids/pets
- a keepsake box with a graduation photo on it
- dash plates for your car show, with your event logo and info
- a sign for your campsite or cabin
- a cutting board as a closing gift, with your real estate logo and info
- a necklace or dogtag with your picture, for someone special
As we said, the possibilities are endless!
We are…
a family owned personalization company that makes custom products with photos, logos, and images. We started Lasered Edges LLC in 2014 to create unique photo gifts using laser technology. We are photo and genealogy enthusiasts, so creating gifts using photos is a natural fit. However, laser engraving is not in color, so we expanded our product line to include color photo gifts and products, which you will find here on this website.
We still do custom laser engraving, specializing in photo engraving, and create beautiful, detailed images on wood, glass, acrylic, stone, and metal. It gives us another set of endless possibilities. (Those products are on our Lasered Edges ETSY site).
We are also …
Dash Custom Ts and Dash Customs.
When we started branching out into color photo gifts and custom apparel about five years ago, we acquired an apparel business that was called Custom Designs. Custom Designs is a pretty generic name, so we renamed the business Dash Custom Ts. We had our store at the TownMall of Westminster, where we created photo shirts, as well as photo gifts, and the Dash Custom Ts was shortened to Dash Customs to include everything. We also did engraving at the mall, at our original store, Lasered Edges Engraving. We still do custom shirts, photo gifts, and custom engraving, but we no longer do production at the mall. However, we wanted to maintain a presence in the mall so our customers could find us, so we combined both stores into a kiosk, that serves as a drop off and pick up point for custom orders. Our kiosk sign has both names: Lasered Edges and Dash Customs.
At events, we usually do business as Dash Custom Ts, because our main product is t-shirts. However, if our laser engraving or wood working is the focus of the event, we are usually doing business there as Lasered Edges.
**** With COVID-19 and the temporary mall closure March thru June, we continued to meet customers at the mall to take orders and deliver them. We would meet in the parking lot instead of in the mall, at the kiosk. Customers contacted us by phone, text, email, and messaging.
Even thought the mall reopened on June 19th, we have not reopened the kiosk. We plan to eventually reopen, when things calm down more. In the meantime, you can order from either of our ETSY sites or this site. If you can't find what you are looking for, give us a call or send us a message. ***********
This website
We are currently offering color photo products/custom products on this website, but we will be adding laser engraving and custom apparel in the future.
What we love about this website is that it lets you design the product! You pick your product, upload your image, add text or other images from the site, and purchase it. Then it is shipped right to you!
You can create a photo shirt or design your shirt here, by selecting the shirt and clicking on the personalization tab.
If you see something at our store or events and can’t find it here yet, please visit our Etsy stores.
- For laser engraving, laser cutting, or scroll saw type work, including military plaques, visit our Lasered Edges store on ETSY.com (If you do a search, LaseredEdges is one word, TWO “ed”s).

Other services
For your office: besides gifts, we provide office products, such as engraved desk plaques, name plates, business card holders, and awards, plus leather business card cases, portfolios, and binders.
Events/Groups/Reunions: We create personalized T-shirts for events, reunions, teams, groups, or just for you. We will do one shirt or one hundred. For a shirt or two, select your shirt and enter your design. For larger orders, send us your design for a price quote. We can also personalize awards, plaques, tumblers, dash plates, keychains, and more for your event, group, reunion, or team. It’s a great way to recognize outstanding leadership, coaching, “Best in Show”, etc.
Small Business Support: We support other small businesses. As a small business, you usually don’t need 50 shirts or name plates, or even a dozen or two. If you sell houses or insurance, you may only need one or two cutting boards with your logo, for when you make that big sale! You can order one or two of any item, but we also provide bulk ordering and discounts if you order large quantities.
Small Order Support: Besides small businesses, we support bigger businesses, crafters, hobbyists, groups, and individuals who need laser cutting service, laser engraving service, or other custom work done.
