Laser etched black aluminum garden tags

I made these for the roses and trees in our garden. Now to decide how I want to implement them.

Very nice! BTW, I love the painting that bears that name. Never really read all the poem, though.

These look really awesome, I want to do the same for my garden! I nabbed the scraps you left from this :awesome: :heart: Do you have a link to where you got these blanks? Any tips on laser settings?

You’ve got me wanting a Lady of Shallot rose bush now. I just planted some roses that look kind of similar to those (About Face).

I got these because they’re twice as thick as others I found for only a little more:

I think the Cecile Brunner is my favorite of the roses. Oh shoot, I just realized I forgot to do one for Don Juan! That’s a striking one.

I etched them all at full power, full speed and then washed them to get the debris out of the lettering.

Something like this might be better, if it’s etchable. Amazon.com
I’m now in need of something to attach the ones I made to put them in the ground. I may even buy something like this to glue them to.
