Above are key chains where the glass is adhered to a photograph using U.V. epoxy and baked in a UV Oven and then glued to the silver color setting.
Live shot of the epoxy bonding the glass and photograph by means of the UV oven.
Horizon also does custom wood burning. Above is a wooden plaque of a German Shepard K9 burned into the wood with a heat pen. The plaque is then stained and given a coat of polyurethane for the natural shiny look.
Plaques can also be made by custom carving. Using a Dremel tool and various carving bits, a very fine design can be permanently carved into the wood.
Horizon also offers custom glass etching. By using a special etching cream, glue, and other business secrets, custom mugs/glasses like above can be made.
Custom drink coasters are made with a 2 part epoxy that is poured and cured for 24 hours. Another layer of epoxy with the photo for a minimun of 4 hours. Lastly, it is given another layer of epoxy colored with white pigment because the color white can not be printed.
Lastly, custom license plates are made by taking a design a digitizing it and cut on a vinyl cutter. It is then transferred onto a license plate blank using transfer tape
