Trying to design a TeKu glass as a special favor for a friend, any ideas? I’ve come across a few alternatives, but nothing specializing in TeKu; feel like this should be easy since everyone is under the impression that TeKu is “sexy” glassware. Anyways, this is not a debate forum; not looking for Snifter, Tulip, Goblet, etc. Nonetheless, I’m open to sarcastic replies …TeKu is “sexy” glassware
What do you mean by design a glass? Do you want ideas for decorations? Like etching, paint or so forth, or actually designing a glass?
You quoted JrGtr...am I missing something? I want to create a glass, like one who creates their own T-Shirt or Sneaker For Example: http://www.customink.com/custom/personalized-glassware https://www.discountmugs.com/
The question is if you wanted a painted or etched glass, or a new glass design. So you don't want to CREATE a glass, you want to PERSONALIZE one. Is that correct?
Minimum order is 72 glasses though... pretty sure that is unrealistic outside of a brewery/restaurant
Your best bet is to talk to a local trophy store or etching specialist and bring them a couple glasses. It's not going to be cheap because on-off projects aren't the most cost effective use of the shops time, but if you can make the design a vector graphic using something like Adobe Illustrator or simply just use text, it may alleviate the cost. You can pick up blank tekus from a few sites: mini teku 250ml(scroll down to the bottom). These guys are the importers of the glassware: http://nepenthiology.com/the-store/ regular teku 300ml http://www.truebeer.com/Teku-Beer-Glass_p_1131.html
Customizing Tekus is tricky work compared to a lot of glassware, which is why you only ever really see 1 colored prints or foil on them, from my experience/ from what I've heard from vendors.
