Custom Glitter Medals
Glitter medals add sparkle and visual excitement to custom awards. The glitter effect is mixed into the enamel fill, creating a shimmering finish that catches light and makes the medal stand out. These medals are ideal for celebratory events, youth programs, and any occasion where a bold, eye-catching award is desired.
How Glitter Medals Are Made
Glitter medals start with a stamped or die-cast metal base. Recessed areas are filled with enamel mixed with glitter particles, then baked and cured. The raised metal lines remain polished or plated, creating contrast between the glitter fill and the metal border. An epoxy dome can be added for extra protection and gloss.
Popular Uses
Glitter medals are popular for fun runs, kids' races, dance competitions, gymnastics, cheerleading, school events, and festive races. They add a celebratory feel that appeals to younger participants and casual athletes.
Color and Finish Options
Glitter enamel is available in many colors, including gold, silver, red, blue, green, pink, and purple. It can be combined with soft enamel or imitation hard enamel finishes. Pair glitter medals with custom ribbons for a coordinated event package.
