Branding Stamps - How to personalise your crafts!

In this post we will explain the basics of branding stamps and their use in crafting.

What are branding irons?

Branding stamps, also known as branding irons, are tools used to press a hot metal plate onto wood, leather, cork or other materials. These metal plates have an engraved design or letters that leave a permanent brand on the material when pressed. Branding stamps come in different sizes, shapes and designs and can be customised to create a variety of markings.

How are branding stamps used?

To use branding stamps, you must first select the design or letter you want to use. This can be a logo, a name or a special message. The branding stamp is then placed on a hot metal plate to heat it up. Once the branding stamp is heated, it is gently pressed onto the material to be marked. After a few seconds, the branding stamp is removed and the mark remains on the material.

Which materials can be marked with branding stamps?

Branding stamps can be used on a variety of materials including wood, leather, cork and paper. These tools are ideal for making personalised gifts such as wooden boxes, leather bracelets or notebooks. You can also use them to make business cards or business cards with a unique branding design.
