Custom UV Printed Wooden Stickers, Made in USA

Custom UV-printed wooden stickers made in the USA from sustainably sourced cherry wood. Your design is printed in full color directly onto the wood surface using GreenGuard Gold certified UV-LED inks, giving you the visible wood grain underneath with vibrant color on top. The stickers are flexible along the grain so they wrap around water bottles cleanly, and the 3M adhesive backing holds them permanently.

Alchemy is a production partner built by artists, musicians, and brand owners. We've helped creators produce over 5 million custom products since 2019, and we don't operate like a promotional products company. Whether you're an indie illustrator running your first 50-piece drop, a band making merch for a tour, or a designer ordering for a brand launch, our job is the same: make the best merch we can for you.

What UV-printed wooden stickers actually are

UV-printed wooden stickers are real cherry wood, cut into sticker-shaped pieces, with your full-color artwork printed on the wood surface using UV-cured ink. The wood grain shows through any unprinted (clear) areas of your design, giving every sticker a unique natural texture even though the artwork itself is consistent.

The UV-LED inks we use are GreenGuard Gold certified, which is the strict third-party safety standard for indoor air quality and chemical emissions. Important if you're producing for a parent-facing audience, schools, indoor commercial spaces, or any brand that values safety transparency.

If you want a single-tone burned design instead of full-color print, see our burned wooden stickers. Burned has no inks at all — just laser-marked wood.

What artwork works best

UV printing on wood holds full color, gradients, and fine detail. The main consideration is contrast: the wood grain shows through wherever the print is translucent or unprinted, so designs with deliberate transparency get a beautiful wood-and-color effect, while designs that rely on solid color blocks may want a white-ink underlayer to keep colors fully opaque (specify in your order notes if you want this).

How a wooden sticker run actually works

Most orders start with a quote, not a cart. You send us your artwork, and we come back with pricing, a production timeline, and any production notes within a business day or two. We'll flag anything that won't translate well to wood before we move forward.

From proof approval, wooden stickers typically ship in 5 to 7 days from our US wood shop. That's faster than overseas custom merchandise and faster than most domestic vinyl-sticker shops too. Shipping is express and included.

If you have a hard deadline, tell us before you order. We don't charge rush fees. We'll confirm whether we can hit your date.

Why our wooden sticker minimum is 25

Wooden stickers come out of the same US wood shop as our wooden pins, which means we're not running into the same factory labor minimums that set the 50-piece floor on overseas products. 25-piece runs are economically reasonable here in a way they wouldn't be for vinyl stickers or overseas products. Mix multiple designs within one order as long as each design hits the 25-piece minimum at the same size range.

Who we work with

Artists running their own work: illustrators, bands, indie brand owners, podcasters, comic creators, convention sellers. Designers ordering for a brand launch, an event, a campaign, or a customer giveaway. Agencies and design studios producing merch for their clients. Merch companies running production for the artists they represent. The common thread is that the merch matters: it's representing a brand, a band, an artist, or a project that someone cares about.

Common questions

What's GreenGuard Gold and why does it matter?

GreenGuard Gold is a third-party certification for indoor air quality and chemical safety. Products with the certification have passed strict tests for VOC emissions and toxic compound levels. Important for indoor commercial spaces, parent-facing brands, schools, and any audience whose buyers ask about ingredient transparency.

Will the print fade over time?

UV-cured ink is sealed and protected. With normal use (water bottles, laptops, indoor surfaces) the colors hold up for years. Heavy outdoor exposure or constant UV will eventually fade printed areas, but this is true of any printed product. The wood grain underneath stays unchanged.

What's the difference between burned and UV-printed wooden stickers?

Burned has no ink — your design is laser-marked into the wood. Single-tone, organic, permanent. UV-printed uses ink to print full color on the wood. Multi-color, vibrant, but reads less rustic. Burned is more "made of wood with a design on it"; UV-printed is more "wood as a substrate for a printed image." More on burned wooden stickers here.

Will the wood get damaged in water?

Cherry wood handles incidental moisture but isn't dishwasher-safe. For water bottle use, the sticker survives hand-washing fine. Repeated dishwasher cycles will eventually cause swelling.

Can I mix multiple designs in one order?

Yes. Mix multiple designs as long as each design hits 25 pieces minimum and they're all in the same size range.

How long do orders take?

5 to 7 days from proof approval to your door, including express shipping.

Are these really made in the USA?

Yes. Cherry wood from US mills, cutting and printing at our US wood shop, shipped from a US warehouse. Wooden products and stickers are the products we make in the US.

Do I see a proof before production?

Yes. Digital proof for review before we cut or print anything. Revisions until you approve.
