How much does it
cost?
Since you set your
budget, you determine the price of your logo charm project. Be sure to
include in your budget a setup die charge. All custom charms have this fee. The
price generally starts at $125, but can be as high as $295. This depends on the
intricacy of the artwork and cutout design.
How do I set a
budget?
You will want to consider
many things when setting your budget. Every detail can adjust your final
pricing. But don't worry, our designers are the best in the industry and will
help you every step of the way. Here are a few questions you will need to
consider when setting your budget.
-
How
many custom charms do I need? (This is the most important
factor)
-
Do I want to give the charms in a set or
individually?
-
If I choose a set, how many to a set? ( i.e 2, 4, 6. 8, 10, 12
)
-
How do
you I want my wine charms packaged? (We
offer numerous packaging concepts)
-
How do
I want my custom charms finished? (We offer
numerous finishes)
- Do I want beads?
If so, do I want colored beads or gold/silver beads? (We offer numerous bead finishes, styles and price
points)
How
can VRC offer such low prices for custom charms?
Since
1998, Vine Ripe Charms (VRC Co.) has been the nations' largest manufacturer of
wine charms. We have produced hundreds of thousands of wine charms for a vast
majority of the world most prestigious companies. We pull from this experience
to work within any budget to deliver a quality logo wine charm in a timely
manner.
What are some of the different ways
you have created custom wine charms?
Since
our clients determine their own budget, we have worked with many different
mediums to meet their price points. On past projects, we have used everything
from 24k gold charms and real diamonds to acrylic beads and imitation finishes.
Our clients' projects have allowed us to experience a vast range of ideas and
have created some very memorable sets of wine charms. You can view some recent charm projects at www.customwinecharms.com
Do most businesses choose sets or
individual wine charms?
Most businesses choose sets of wine
charms. They often choose from our stock of 10,000 wine charms and then
incorporate their logo charm into the group. However, we also have a large
clientele that enjoys giving their customers one logo charm in a different
finish every year. This creates an anticipated gift that the recipient looks
forward to collecting each year.
How can you package the
charms?
Wow, that's a big question. We have
packaged charms in hundreds of different ways. Some of our past favorites have
included tins, velvet or organza bags, pillow boxes and acrylic boxes in
numerous shapes. One client even had their charms packaged in a margarita glass.
Now that was festive!
For sets of six, we also offer our
award winning Vine Ripe Charms gift box.
What finishes do you
offer?
We have the largest selection of
finishes available for you to choose from:
|
What kind of beads do you
offer? |
Wow, that's another big question. We
have used over 5000 different types of beads! Generally, we used either
acrylic, glass or Swarvoski crystal beads. We can offer your wine charm a
variety of beads in pretty much any color you are interested
in. |

Who buys from you and for what
occasions?
Well first of all, we are the the
largest manufacturer of wine charms in the Nation. We would like to think in the
world, but we haven't exactly verified that yet. So we supply wine charms to
countless stores, promotional companies, event planners, wedding coordinators,
corporations and businesses of all sizes.
Our custom logo wine charms are a
huge hit with brides and wedding coordinators. They order them in their wedding
colors with the date or their names. They make great reception gifts. One bride
had their wedding date on the front of the charm and the words "Thank you for
sharing our special day" on the back. These were packaged in a tin heart with
satin bows. Stunning...
Business and corporations purchase
our custom logo wine glass charms for promotional gifts. They send them out for
the holidays or use them to announce upcoming special events. The are great for
conventions, luncheons and banquets. Don't forget wine charms are not only for
wine glasses. You can use them on coffee cups, tea cups or any glass that has a
stem. One client was having a convention in Mexico and ordered their logo wine
charms to use on margarita glasses. Another used their logo charms to adorn 2500
Mai Tai glasses in Hawaii.
Every time someone drinks from a glass with YOUR
logo Wine Charm they are reminded where they got it.
What a great
way to advertise. Wine charms are appreciated by your friends, business
associates and customers.

restaurants, and other business

How can I see or receive samples?
Well, we can't send you samples. Why? Because they don't belong to us. Once a custom charm is made it belongs to the customer and only that customer. We can show you pictures & renderings of what we have made but we can not send you an actual charm. You can see our recent work at www.customwinecharms.com
How long does it take?
Hmmm. We were wondering how long
until you asked that very important question. The fastest we have ever turned
around a project was 3 weeks (7000 charms). The client was wonderful to work
with. They knew what they wanted and how they wanted it. Our designers turned
their logo into a charm, they approved it the same day and we produced it
within 7 business days. The final assembly and shipping time brought to 22 days.
This was a seamless project. Most of
the time, the biggest hold up is that the customer isn't sure of what they want
or they need a committee of people to approve the design or budget. That brings
your general time frame to 4-6 weeks. That does not mean it will always take
that long, but it is a good rule of thumb to schedule by. You can always call
and see what our roster load is and find out a more specific time frame for your
project.
If you need a charm yesterday, then
you may want to choose from our stock of over 10,000 charms. We more than likely
can find something that relates to your business or event.
Another consideration is our
Semi-Custom wine charms. Here you can put your logo into either a circle, square
or diamond pre-made charm. This is a quick and affordable way to get custom
charms without the wait. Call and ask one of our designers for more
information
This all sounds great, but how much
is this going to cost?
Again, you set the budget, but we
know you still want to get a ballpark idea to see if it is even worth calling
us.
Here is a general

way to get you charms.
Can you make us a custom charm even
though we don't want it for a wine charm?
We are asked this alot.. Yes, we can
make you any charm for any purpose. In fact, we can make you custom pins, coins,
medals, medallions, badges, divot tools, ball markers, trolley coins, key
holders, key rings, key chains, money clips, bookmarks, necklaces, earrings, tie
bars, cuff links, ball chains, luggage markers, eyeglass holders, purse key
finders, pretty much anything that requires custom work. But we really prefer to
make charms! It's what we are really good at!
