Dome Stickers On USB Memory Sticks – Do They Work
Mention the word "sticker" in the context of promotional flash drives and you don't always get a positive reaction. For some reason peoples perception of stickers is that they will look cheap and nasty and that they're just a poor relation to memory sticks where the body of the memory stick itself is printed.
But don't rush to judge because not all "stickers" are equal. The sort of stickers used on USB flash drives are not the sort of tacky sticker that someone has knocked up on a local printer and just plonked onto a blank flash drive. Improvements in sticker technology now mean you can use something called a "dome" sticker.
A dome sticker is a combination of a high colour print protected under and raised resin dome. The stickers can be produced in any shape and can accommodate even the most complex of prints, including graduated tones that typically can't be printed directly onto a memory stick.
So not only are dome stickers more flexible in terms of the complexity of print they can support but the resin layer applied to the sticker encases and protects the printed logo and helps prevent wear and tear. Printed memory sticks can occasionally be subject to problems of scratching and gradual erosion of the printed logo, particularly if the sticks are attached to a set of keys on a key ring. If you are looking for branded memory sticks that are likely to be subjected to this sort of punishment and you want your brand to remain intact then the use of domed stickers might be the solution.
Another benefit of domed stickers is that they can be printed in just a matter of days and then applied to blank (unprinted) stock. If you're printing complex logos or logos with 3 or 4 colours and you need them in a hurry then domed stickers can also work out cheaper than getting memory sticks printed locally.
Of course the acid test is how the stickers look on the memory sticks and whether the finished product is going to do justice to your brand. From the memory sticks we've seen where domed stickers are used we can reassure you that they look fantastic. We're not suggesting you should always use domed stickers because for some flash drives printing is and will always remain the best option. But, if you're in a hurry and you don't mind limiting your choose of flash drives to those that work well with domed stickers then they are an excellent solution.

Affordable Cremation Jewelry
Affordable Cremation Jewelry
Just as cremation is favored by many people because it is more affordable than traditional, in-ground burial, cremation jewelry is a natural choice for anyone who is looking for a personal, dignified, and affordable way to preserve a loved one's memory. In fact, cremation jewelry is so affordable that each member of the family can have his or her own keepsake pendant.
For those who prefer luxury jewelry, of course, there are many cremation jewelry designs that are made of precious metals and adorned with diamonds, pearls, sapphires, and other gem stones. But for those whose tastes run to a simpler style, the selection of affordable ash pendants is almost endless.
Price of Cremation Jewelry Related to Cost of Materials
The price of cremation jewelry is most directly influenced by the cost of the materials that go into each design. Cremation keepsakes made from gold, silver, or gold vermeil, for example, are generally more costly than urn pendants made from wood, stainless steel, or man-made materials. Likewise, cremation jewelry that is accented with precious stones is priced higher than keepsake pendants that feature cubic zirconium or no gem stones at all.
Cremation Jewelry's Value Not Determined by Cost
It would be a mistake, however, to conclude that cremation jewelry's value is directly related to its cost. Some of the most affordable cremation necklaces - like cremation jewelry made from 50,000 year old ancient kauri and other rare and exotic woods, for example - are highly prized for their natural warmth and exquisite beauty.
Families Can Save More on Cremation Jewelry
Other low-cost options in cremation jewelry include simple cylinders made from glass or polyester resin and stainless steel. Families who want to save even more on their cremation jewelry may want to consider one of the economically priced sets that contain anywhere from 2 to 50 urn pendants at substantial savings.
For those who may not want to wear cremation jewelry, a cremation pendant can still provide a low-cost alternative to other types of memorials. Jewelry for ashes can be arranged in a glass presentation dome with a memorial inscription on the base. When the dome is placed under soft lighting in a prominent location, the cremation jewelry creates a striking monument to the loved one whose precious cremations are contained within.
