What is a custom printable and should you buy it?
Last time, we talked about printable artwork and why they work for so many people. But what about custom printables? What is a custom printable and should you buy it?
There are many types of custom printables available. First, let’s discuss templates that you can purchase on platforms like Etsy and Zazzle, among others. Customization options may be limited, but they are suitable for various invitations, including wedding and birthday invitations, personalized greeting cards, customized stationery, thank you cards, and more. After making a purchase, the buyer fills in the necessary information and can then print the item.
Examples of Custom Templates:
These two designs are from my new shop at Zazzle. If you aren’t familiar with Zazzle, Zazzle is an online marketplace that allows users to design and sell custom products and customers to create their own products with independent manufacturers.
Custom printables (not templates) are a completely different product. With custom printables, the customer provides the information, and the designer creates the design. Because the designer is directly involved, the cost is higher than that of a custom template, where you simply change out the information. At Susan Newberry Designs, we have been creating custom printables for years, and we truly enjoy the process. You might wonder why you would choose a custom printable over a custom template. The answer is simple: custom printables offer many more options, including variations in color, font, and style.
Here are some of our Custom Printables:
I hope this clarifies some details about custom designs. Soon I hope to show my Zazzle store. Right now it is a work in progress!
