More design elements to consider when customizing products online

Experiment with your artwork’s design elements to create your next bestseller!

• Text fonts and sizes: Create a visual hierarchy by playing with text fonts and sizing. You can give a design a whole new vibe by just changing a font style. Learn more with our Fonts guide for personalized text. 
• Color palettes: Color is a powerful language. Colors can trigger various emotional responses depending on the shades utilized in your designs. Play with different color schemes to get your design’s intention across. This can even apply to clothing colors, for example.
• Characters: If you’re going to include people as a personalizable element, be inclusive. Hair color, skin color, freckles, smiles - think of anyone and everyone who will love this feature.
• Objects: Will you feature certain objects in your design? Add a variety of objects to create more diverse options for your shoppers.
