Sometimes the simplest updates make the biggest impact!
Whether you're organizing game night, updating your decor, or just trying to tell time with a bit more style, your everyday items deserve a touch of magic.
Plus, keep reading for an exciting announcement about our next Cozy Crafternoon session (hint: we're heading to the National Parks)!
The Magic of Materials
Here's a crafting secret: you probably already have laser-ready materials at home! Your Glowforge can transform everyday items like cardboard, paper, and canvas into custom creations. Want to level up? Try premium materials like wood, acrylic, or leather. You can even engrave on glass, slate, or food. (Just remember to use a separate machine for those delicious projects!)
Looking for guaranteed perfect results? That's where Proofgrade® Materials come in. These premium materials are specially engineered for Glowforge, with preset settings that take the guesswork out of creating. From hardwoods to premium acrylics, each piece comes with a protective mask and is guaranteed to produce consistent, beautiful results.
The possibilities are endless — and so is the potential for adding personality to your space!
