Everybody loves customization, as it gives a sense of personalization and being connected to belonging. This is why laser printing and engraving are now becoming the new norm, which is easily accessible and can be done within a home. Moreover, the latest trend of new digital workspaces has also made access to digital designs easier to create and engrave on different surfaces and materials. If you are one of those who are looking for the best and newest laser engraving ideas and trends to look up to in the year 2024, then below are all of those that should be on your radar:

1. Home Decor Items

Like every year, the home décor category is still the most loved one by laser cutter owners and remains the top choice for customization. Wooden signboards for restaurants, wall hangings, decorative bookends, and wood photographs remain the top product categories for home décor items coupled with laser printing.

Wood laser engraving and cutting can be a tricky hobby as the substandard or incorrect choice of laser cutters can burn the wood. We recommend opting for the Ortur LM3 laser cutter, which is designed with a built-in air tube that helps reduce burn marks thanks to the Air Pump 1.0.

2. Jewelry Products

Custom engraved linked circle necklaces and bracelets remain the top trending products, where online sellers are using laser engraving for couple names. Such gifts are a great fit. Present on birthdays, anniversaries, or any other special occasion. Earrings are also available with custom engraving. Moreover, laser cutters are also used to make custom-sized acrylic earrings in geometric and cute shapes.

3. Drinkware

Like every year, all of the most common laser engraving ideas are related to drinkware and glass engraving in general. For those special occasions like a wedding, an anniversary, or a memorable holiday, a fine way to add your personal touch is to the glassware used in such events. This can include wine glasses, tumblers, shot glasses, beer steins, or even large glass platters.

Glass is not your thing for glassware? Opt for porcelain, glass, or ceramic mugs that can be engraved with photographs and custom wording for your brainy quotes. Ortur LM3 laser cutter and engraver is suitable for such glassware engraving as it packs ultra-stable laser engraving modules with a 0.08*0.08mm spot accuracy and a capable airflow system with guided airflow blinds, all of which are highly suitable for glass engraving for the aforementioned products.

4. Leather Items

Luggage bags with custom tags are the new trend for leather engraving, as seen on Etsy and other popular custom product platforms. Others include custom-engraved journals, wallets, photo albums with leather covers, valet trays, and leather belts. For such engraving of leather products, one can easily get digital designs and different font engravings from leading online stores.

All you need is a leather surface from one of the aforementioned products and a capable laser engraving machine like the Ortur LM3. Its 20W real power laser-visible and extremely capable Quick Focus Stick system delivers easy and reliable focus for engraving and cutting leather products.

5. Acrylic Lighting

With laser printers, lighting doesn’t have to be boring, as LED acrylic lighting is becoming a thing in 2024 and is commonly used as wall art or room dividers. All you need is an acrylic sheet, an LED light base, a design file of your choice, and a capable printer that can engrave on acrylic glass. We recommend opting for the Ortur LM3 which can handle this task with ease and delivers reliable results thanks to its 4-diode laser beams to compress a finer beam and powerful energy output, which give a sharp and reliable effect for engraving acrylic lighting.
