Design Your Own Award Medals, (24 CT) 1pack

The inserts are 2.25”. Would have saved me a lot of reformatting if I had known that from the description when I bought them! They made fun medals for our Nurses’ Week celebration.

Nothing fancy, but functional. I use them for notifying new candidates for the National Honor Society at my school. Current members decorate and personalize the medallions for the new members.

I ended up using a circle that was 700x700 pixels or 7.2 inches and it fit pretty great. Shrank just a tiny bit when I had them printed off at staples but fit great with my test print at home. The clarity of the plastic is a little cloudy and the metal that holds the ribbon to the plastic was bent on a couple of them but for the price it was great.

It was hard to open up .The children struggle. We finally was able to separate it and get it open.

I bought these for a chili cook-off and dessert contest at our church. We could open the medal, write on the paper with a pen (thin felt-tip seemed best) and present them to the winners. The ribbon is thin and cheap, but this is not for framing and putting in the bookshelf. There are better awards if you want the winner to feel pride in the award. These did quite nicely for the purpose, to let adults know they won in a category. Consider them like party favors.

I was more than pleased with what I received given the price of the product. 24 medals for under $8, that comes out to around 33 cents per medal. They ship a box of 24, each medal is just two plastic covers that snap together, connected to a red, white, and blue lanyard. Inside each medal, they give you two blank white circles of paper that you can use to draw on and design your medal. I didn't use these though, as I just printed out my own design on standard printer paper and cut them to fit into each case.The resulting product certainly will not be used as an Olympic medal anytime soon, but for what it is and the price you pay, it's more than acceptable. The plastic cases can be a little difficult to open when you are creating each award, but once finished, they snap together tightly and will not fall apart or break.I would say the low point of this product is how cheap/thin the lanyard is...it's not very wide, nor very thick, and has almost no weight to it. But again, for 33 cents per medal, it's more than acceptable. And if so inclined, it would be very simple to replace this ribbon with any other ribbon/lanyard of your choice in a matter of seconds, which would substantially improve the feel of the product.All in all, five stars, and I'd buy again without question.

The media could not be loaded. Oh, I absolutely love these little metals they were very easy to open. I ordered some custom stickers to be made with my business logo on them. Then inside of the actual metal I put like a little plastic gold coin I was buying metals but I teach over 300 kids so by the end of the year I was buying hundreds of dollars worth of metals so here these are cute and inexpensive and I can hand them out like crazy

My first photo shows a red circle and a white circle - I have a white circle under the red one, and a red one under the white one to show how precise I managed to get my cricut cut on these (if you're planning to use a cricut or similar machine, the size I have is 2.306 inches height and width.)My only disappointment with these is that on one side (the side I'd consider the front) the word "CHINA" is stamped across the middle of the medal.I've seen complaints that the plastic of the medals make the image appear blurry, but I personally haven't experienced that. My 2nd photo might appear a bit blurry, but that's because the flash on my camera doesn't work, and it was a bit dark when I took the picture.These medals are perfect for the kids party I'm currently planning.
