What are double layered acrylic charms?
Unlike our regular clear acrylic charms, which are made from one layer of acrylic, our double layered acrylic charms are made from two layers of 2mm thick acrylic, with the printed element of your charm designs sandwiched between these 2 layers.
This means that the printed element of yoru charm designs is protected on both sides by acrylic, creating an extremely durable acrylic charm.
How thick is the acrylic?
Our double layered clear acrylic charms are made from 2 layers of 2mm thick acrylic, giving an overall thickness of 4mm.
Can my design be printed right up to the edge of the acrylic?
Yes! Our double layered charms allow your designs to be printed right up to the edge of the clear acrylic. You can still have a border of course. Simply set this up in our design templates or let one of our design team know if you'd like a border or edge-to-edg printing.
How is the acrylic Eco friendly?
Our clear, black and white acrylics are made from recycled plastics that had reached the end of their life-cycle and were destined for landfill and incineration.
Recycled acrylic (R-MMA) looks and performs as well as standard virgin acrylic (PMMA) whilst being VOC and HFC free and significantly kinder to the environment.
Which side of my charms will my chosen 'finish' be applied to?
Resin and glitter resin will be applied to SIDE A of your duble layered clear acrylic charms.
How does the second charm work?
Adding a second charm to your earrings, allows you to create more interesting designs. You can choose to hang your second charm directly from an earring wire using a jumpring or by attching it to your first charm to create a cascade effect.
