Logos Imprinted on Wooden Shakers Instruments

Ever wanted to imprint a corporate logo on a shaker wooden musical instrument? WorldMusicalInstruments.com can apply corporate logos to musical instruments or just provide the musical instruments and the advice so you can apply the corporate logo yourself.



Here's an example of a logo'd wooden egg shaker. The wooden egg shaker has a finish on it, so we found the best way to apply a logo to the curved egg shaker surface was to imprint the corporate logo onto a clear sticker, then apply the sticker to the egg shakers. A neutral color of egg shaker was chosen so that the logo shows up nicely.



Before the logo:





After the logo:
