Why You Should Invest
So we mentioned earlier that there aren’t many feelings that are better than seeing your own custom idea come to life. Many of us can relate to this. This however isn’t the only reason you should consider making an investment in custom cornhole boards.
Cornhole boards that are made with quality, are durable and last for years to come. Meaning this investment will provide you with a source of entertainment and joy for many, many years. The game of cornhole has been growing at a very fast rate across the country and does not seem to be slowing down. You can see the game being played at bars, beaches, parties, restaurants, parks, tailgates, and many other places.
Owning a set of custom cornhole boards will allow you to entertain any guests you might have over. Cornhole is a game that gets people outside and having a good time. One of the nice things about the game is you only need one hand to throw your bags, so it allows you to continue drinking your drink, eating your hot dog, or whatever else you might be doing while you play. The game is set up to be able to get many people to get involved and having a good time.
If you are considering purchasing a set of cornhole boards, why not choose the custom cornhole board option? Yes there are many great designs out there for you to choose from, but none of those can compare to something that you had made yourself. Put your own touch on your board and be happy to show it off during games.
The Process
The process for having a set of custom cornhole boards made is quite simple. There are three main steps to having your custom cornhole boards created. In this section we’ll break down the usual process of ordering a set into 3 phases.
The Idea Phase
The most important part of the custom cornhole board process, deciding on your design. Maybe you are having your custom boards made for a wedding, or possibly want to use a family photo to put on the boards. Maybe you have your own idea you’d like to seen drawn out which can also be done.
One of the nice things about the custom design process is that almost any picture or image you supply can be used to make your boards look just like it. One thing to be careful of is licensed images. The company creating your board will need to hold the license for many products that use another company’s or person’s likeness.
You can even take a stock design that appeals to you and add your custom touch to that specific design. This can be a great way to combine something that you like with your own personal touch.
When placing your order for your idea you will have the option to attach any artwork you want, and there will be a text box that allows you to type out the details for exactly what you are looking for. A high resolution JPEG, EPS, or other high resolution image will usually suffice.
The Design Phase
After you submit your idea, your designated graphic designer or customer service specialist will usually reach out to you. If your instructions were clear and concise the graphic designer will often begin designing your board immediately. If all details are not exactly clear, someone will reach out to you to get a better understanding of exactly what you want.
During the design process you will be consistently updated with the progress of your custom boards. Many companies will have you pay before they begin designing your board to make sure they are not using their time inefficiently. However, your boards will not be made until you are completely satisfied with your design.
The Production Phase
Once you are satisfied with and confirm your design, your boards will begin production. The production team will begin to handcraft your boards and build the frame. The team will make sure that your chosen artwork comes out looking exactly how you intended it too.
The high quality images or artwork you chose should be displayed with that same high quality on your cornhole board top. Some companies use vinyl stickers which they stick to the top of the board. Here at Slick Woody’s we print directly to a laminate on the top of our board. This laminate provides optimal bag sliding and is much more durable than the stickers many companies use.
When it is time for your boards to ship you will receive an email, informing you they have been shipped. Custom cornhole boards are usually shipped almost immediately after production is finished.
The Price of a Custom Cornhole Board
When it comes to the price of a custom cornhole board it can vary depending on a few factors. The two things that most affect the price are the company you are purchasing from and the quality of the actual board.
Based on research from a few of the top companies in the cornhole industry, custom cornhole boards can range in price from $200 to $450. For some this might seem like a bit of a high price to ask for.
When you consider what goes into making a high quality cornhole board, designing the artwork needed, and how long you will be able to enjoy your set of boards going forward, the price makes more sense.
Hopefully this article was able to provide you the insight needed when considering getting a custom set of cornhole boards made. When it comes to designs the options are endless, as almost any artwork can be applied to the top of a cornhole board.
When you make the decision to purchase a set of custom cornhole boards it is important to get exactly what you want. Cornhole boards are not the most expensive item in the world, but they still are an investment for most people. And an investment you can get a high return on when you consider the joy and entertainment a set of cornhole boards can provide for yourself, your friends, and your family!
