FAQ


What counts as a “stocking stuffer”?
Small, budget-friendly items that fit a Christmas stocking—typically under $25 and compact.


How many characters can I engrave?
Slim bars fit ~10–15 characters; standard micro plates ~15–20; name beads often ≤9 per bead. Check each listing’s limits.


Front vs. back engraving?
Many bars allow double-sided. Put the date/initials up front and a short line inside.
