Custom Tumblers!

08/21/2026

There is something different about watching a flat sheet of acrylic become a brand.

Cut by cut. Layer by layer. Detail by detail.

Today, I put the xTool P3 to work creating this custom 3D acrylic business sign from scratch.

This is the part of entrepreneurship people do not always see. The measuring. The designing. The testing. The tiny adjustments. Then suddenly, the pieces come together and somebody’s vision becomes something they can actually hold.

I could watch this machine work all day.

But the best part will always be the final reveal.

Would you put a custom 3D acrylic sign like this in your business?

Your brand. Your vision. Executed.

ONE DOSE CAN SAVE A LIFE.

In recognition of International Overdose Awareness Day, DFW Black Owned Businesses is proud to stand alongside the Ryan Family YMCA in bringing lifesaving education and resources directly into our community.

Recently, DFW Black Owned Businesses donated hundreds of boxes of Narcan to the Ryan Family YMCA because community investment is about more than business. It is about making sure our neighbors have access to resources that can protect families, prevent tragedy, and save lives.

On Saturday, August 29, the Ryan Family YMCA will host a FREE Fentanyl Awareness + Narcan Training designed to give our community practical knowledge that could make all the difference in an emergency.

Attendees will learn about the dangers of fentanyl, how to recognize the signs of a possible overdose, and how to properly administer Narcan when every second matters.

Saturday, August 29
10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Ryan Family YMCA
8250 McCart Ave
Fort Worth, TX
FREE to attend

You do not have to know someone struggling with substance use to be prepared.

It could be a friend.
A family member.
A coworker.
A neighbor.
Or a complete stranger whose life depends on someone nearby knowing what to do.

That is why access matters.

Education matters.

Preparation matters.

And partnership matters.

We encourage our entire DFW BOBN community to share this flyer with your families, churches, schools, businesses, organizations, and community groups.

Hundreds of boxes of Narcan were donated with one purpose in mind: to put a lifesaving resource into the hands of people who may one day need it.

Because one dose can save a life.

And one prepared person can change the ending of someone’s story.

What if I told you branding isn’t optional if you want to succeed?

People don’t just buy products. They buy the experience.

Before they ever touch what they ordered, your packaging has already introduced your brand. It has already said something about your quality, your attention to detail, and how seriously you take your business.

So imagine your customer’s reaction when their order doesn’t arrive in a plain, forgettable box…

It arrives in YOUR box.
Your colors. Your logo. Your message. Your brand. 🔥

Introducing CUSTOM BRANDED BOXES by DFW BOBN.

Because if you’re going to ship it, gift it, sell it, or put your name on it… MAKE THEM REMEMBER WHO IT CAME FROM.

E-commerce packaging
PR & influencer boxes
Retail packaging
Corporate gifting
Product launches
Events & special occasions

Your packaging should make somebody want to pull their phone out before they even open the box.

That’s the difference between simply delivering a product and delivering a brand experience.

We don’t just print your logo on things.

We help make your brand unforgettable.

Your brand. Your vision. Executed.

🎒 2,375 CHILDREN SERVED. WE’RE NOT DONE YET. ❤️

One year ago, I never imagined I’d be writing this.

As I continue honoring the legacy of my grandmother, we’ve now placed 2,375 backpacks and school supplies into the hands of children across North Texas. That means 2,375 students will walk into school knowing their community believes in them.

But we’re not finished.

On Saturday, August 8, we’re coming together with eight incredible organizations for one mission:

To make sure every child starts the school year with confidence.

If your family needs school supplies, registration is required to help us ensure every backpack goes to a child who truly needs one.

🎒 REGISTER TODAY
📍 Woodhaven Presbyterian Church
3650 N. O’Connor Road

❤️ HOW YOU CAN HELP

While thousands of backpacks have already been distributed, this event still requires funding to make it successful. Every donation helps us purchase additional school supplies, cover event expenses, and serve even more families.

Whether you can give $10, $25, $50, or more, every dollar makes a difference.

💛 DONATE HERE:

Even if you can’t donate today, you can still make a huge impact by sharing this post. Someone on your timeline may need these supplies, or may be the person who helps make this event possible.

Together, we’re proving that when a community comes together, no child has to start school feeling left behind.

Let’s fill every backpack.
Let’s reach every child.
Let’s show North Texas what community looks like.

✨ What to expect:
💛 Honest conversations about grief and mental wellness
