Our ornaments are handmade by our team, just like the signs here at Atlas Signs And Plaques. Handcrafted one by one. We take great pride in our work and we would enjoy briefly sharing how our ornaments are made.
To start, after we metal coat the signs we take the excess metal coating and pore it into a custom silicon mold, uniquely designed by us. Due to the fact that we do not waste our materials and only use remaining metals, each ornament is individually layered and therefore is a rare beauty.
The beginning stages of the ornaments, fresh out of the mold.
Once the metals dry and fuse together, they are taken to the abrasive blast cabinet to remove all impurities, before being moved to our transformation room.
In the transformation room is where the real magic happens. The ornaments are sprayed with our special patina formulas until they are aged to perfection.

Next, we polish each and every ornament to reveal the variation of metal and their individual stunning sheen.
Following this step, our team is able to take the ornaments to be clear coated. If left without a clear coat they tarnish because it is real metal. We use an extremely high-quality clear coating on everything, including our ornaments that protects against natural normality’s such as rain, snow, it is even designed to stand up to a harsh coastal salt spray environment.
For our final step, we are now able to either place a magnet into the back of the ornament or drill a hole so that our customers can hang their new treasure.
Our company loves nothing more than to make our customers happy. We hope you enjoy. Please share.
