How do I wash and care for my wood stamp?

- Clean your stamp of excess ink after each use. This can be done by stamping on a scratch paper until no more ink comes off or wiping across the rubber with a damp cloth.
- For detailed cleaning, or when switching colors, use a drop of dish soap on an old tooth brush to get into the fine areas. Rinse with clean water while being careful to not get the wood part wet.
- Some of our ink, like our fabric inks, are more permanent and may not come cleanly off the rubber stamp. In this case you may need a separate stamp for each color you use.
- A little rubbing alcohol can also be helpful for removing stubborn ink.

What if my permanent name/initials stamp dries out and won't re-ink?

- We highly recommend printing out the image at the size you plan to order.

How do I know if my wood stamp will have a handle or not?

- Really small wood stamps and really large ones work best when they don't have a handle- just the wood mount.
- We usually use our own discretion as to whether to add a handle or not. Our basic guidelines are that if the image is smaller than 1x1" or larger than 2.5x2.5" then we don't put a handle on it.
- However- we can always make it with a handle if you'd prefer. All you need to do is request it in the notes at check out.

What types of ink do you sell?

We sell several kinds of ink that have different purposes so take care when ordering- or message us to confirm you are ordering the right kind.
- Permanent ink: quick-drying, permanent on any surface
- Fabric self-inking ink: permanent on fabric only
- Fabric ink stamp pad: any surface, heat-setting required for permanence on some surfaces
- Regular rubber stamp ink: for paper, uncoated cardboard, raw wood

Will your fabric stamps and ink work on my type of fabric?

We have not tried our fabric inks on all types of fabric and in all washing circumstances. After much research, testing and years in our industry we have found these inks to be the easiest, least toxic, least messy way to leave a permanent impression on fabrics using a rubber stamp.
