Have you ever tried to find a shadow box to display a special item but could not find one in the right size or shape? One size never fits all when it comes to memorabilia, and it can be frustrating when you have a special keepsake item you want to protect and display and cannot find the right shadow box. Fortunately, you can have custom shadow boxes made in any shape, size, or color to fit your memorabilia.

Unlimited size options

If you have ever walked into a store and tried to find a shadow box only to find those designed in a triangle shape to hold folded flags, you are not alone. Many stores only carry a limited supply of shadow boxes in triangle shapes or square shapes with a few compartments. When you choose a custom box, you are in full control of the size and can work with your custom designer to have a box made to fit your memorabilia.

Choose your own color

The color of a shadow box can make a big difference in how your memorabilia looks when on display. For instance, you can choose a shadow box color to contrast with your item and make it stand out better and you can choose a color for the background inside the box if desired. Choosing a shadow box in a color to match your home's interior will enhance the look of your display.

Create a unique look

If you have several small items, you want to display together to create a theme, such as an autographed baseball, jersey, and baseball cards, having the right number of compartments in the right size is important. When you have a box custom designed, there are no limits to the unique looks you can create to protect and show off your memorabilia.

You can also choose floor-standing shadow boxes for large items. Some designers make shadow boxes with special lighting features to keep your memorabilia illuminated to enhance your display.

Deciding to purchase a custom shadow box is a wise investment that will save you time trying to find the right box to accommodate your memorabilia. Mass-produced shadow boxes are typically made only in one or two colors and come in standard shapes and sizes. Choosing a custom shadow box makes it easy to get the perfect fit for your items and you can choose a color that matches the room where you plan to display your memorabilia to enhance the look.
