Custom Stickers
Your idea. Your brand. Your sticker.
Custom shapes, sizes, quantities, and artwork. Send a finished file, a rough sketch, or a sentence describing what you want — all three are a fine place to start.
What I Can Make
Your Artwork, Produced
Send finished art and it gets prepped, proofed, and produced. Files are checked for resolution, bleed, and cut path before anything runs.
Artwork Refined
You have something close — a logo, a sketch, a photo of a drawing. It gets redrawn or cleaned up until it holds at sticker size.
Designed From Scratch
You have an idea and a use for it. Design happens here, from concept through to the file that goes to production.
Brand and Packaging Stickers
Logo stickers, seals, box labels, and the small utilitarian pieces that make a shipment look considered.
Shapes and Sizes
Die-Cut
Cut to the outline of the artwork. Best for marks, shapes, and anything that shouldn't sit in a rectangle.
Square and Rectangle
Standard sizes from roughly 1 to 6 inches. The workhorse format for labels and statements.
Circle and Oval
Seals, badges, and marks. Useful when the sticker needs to read as a stamp rather than a sign.
Sheets and Kiss-Cut
Several designs on one backing, cut through the vinyl only. Good for packs, kits, and packaging inserts.
Not sure which format fits? Describe where the sticker is going and what it has to survive, and the material, finish, and cut get chosen around that.
Design Help
Artwork is part of the job, not an upsell. If you have a finished vector file, it gets prepped and proofed. If you have a logo that was never drawn for a two-inch die-cut, it gets redrawn until it holds at that size.
And if you have nothing but a description, that’s a design job — scoped and priced up front, before anything gets made.
05 /// Run Sizes
- Short Runs
- Small quantities for an event, a launch, a test, or a first look at how the artwork actually prints.
- Larger Runs
- Higher quantities once the design is settled and the proof is approved. Per-unit cost drops as the run grows.
- Repeat Orders
- Approved files are kept on hand, so a reorder is a message rather than a whole new project.
How the Process Works
Full ProcessSend the Idea
A sentence, a sketch, or a finished file. All three are a fine place to start.
Define Size, Quantity, and Use
Where it's going and how many you need. This drives material, finish, and cut.
Create or Refine Artwork
New artwork gets made; existing artwork gets prepped and checked at final size.
Approve the Proof
You see exactly what will print, including the cut line. Nothing runs before you say so.
Produce
The run is printed, cut, checked, and packed.
Stick It Somewhere
The only step with no deliverable and no deadline.
Examples

SQO Sticker Collection
Original designs and current sticker drops. Condensed type, monochrome ink, and a run size decided somewhere between the idea and the proof.

Custom Sticker Work
Turn an idea into something worth sticking somewhere. Client artwork refined, sized, proofed, and produced in short or larger runs.
Questions
What file should I send?
Vector art (SVG, AI, PDF, EPS) is ideal. A high-resolution PNG works for many designs. A phone photo of a sketch is enough to start a conversation — it just means artwork time gets added.
What's the minimum quantity?
Short runs are genuinely short. Tell me what you need and you'll get pricing for the quantity you actually want rather than the quantity that's convenient to print.
Are they weatherproof?
Standard vinyl is water-resistant and holds up outdoors. If a sticker is going on something that lives outside permanently, say so up front and the material gets chosen for it.
Can I use my own logo?
Yes, as long as you have the right to use it. You keep the rights to your artwork; SQO keeps the rights to original SQO designs.
Do you take payment on the site?
No. Custom work is quoted and invoiced directly. The Etsy shop handles anything that's already in production.

Tell me what you're making, roughly how many you need, and where it's going.
You'll get a specific number rather than a range that fits everything.
