In this article:
1. Engraved Marriage Proposal Box
With the LaserPecker LP2, LP2 Plus, LP4 or LP5, you can turn any wooden box into a special engraved valentines gifts for her or him.
These wooden ring boxes can be easily sourced online; depending on the style you're going for, you can even choose to have different fabrics on the inside.
For LaserPecker LP2, when engraving on a darker wood, like the one in this image, we recommend the settings: resolution-1k, power-100%, depth-10%, and pass-1.
To explore other recommended laserpecker engraving and cutting parameters, refer to the settings table that applies to any laserpecker machines.
2. Engraved WiFiy Home Sign
Using the LaserPecker LaserPecker LP2, LP2 Plus, LP4 or LP5, you can turn wooden hearts into customized home decor or home signs. Why not show the person you love this Valentine's Day by adding a play on words? There are tons of Home and Wifi signs on Pinterest, google, or you can even purchase SVG files from Etsy if you don't have time to design the graphics yourself.
Wooden hearts can be purchased in bulk online through a wood supplier or a handful can be bought on Amazon. You can paint the hearts any color you like, however, white is a safe bet for home decor, and the engraving stands out nicely. Also, depending on the size of the heart, you can always engrave the design in sections, making the graph bigger and longer.
For LaserPecker LP2 Plus, we recommend the settings: resolution-1k, power-50%, depth-15%, and pass-1.
3. Date Night Jar
Most LaserPecker machines are ideal for small, detailed engravings and, therefore, perfect for creating 'Date Night' ideas. Instead of planning one special date night for Valentine's Day, why not gift the gift of 10 dates? Blank wooden circles can be added so the couple can add to their ideas with a pen.
If you're a small business and want to stand out, you can ask the customer to send you their ten ideas, and you engrave them. Personalization will make you stand out from other businesses that provide mass gifts with generic ideas.
Wood circles can be bought at any craft store online or locally, or you can cut them yourself using the LaserPecker LP2! Recommended settings to laser cut for 3.5mm MDF is: 1k, 100%, 15%, 20-30 passes. When engraving only the ideas on the circle, we recommend the settings: 1k, 100%, 10, and 2 passes.
Additionally, jars are easily available, even in our kitchen! Recycling jars is a great way to help the environment and promote your business as environmentally conscious. You can decorate the lids and even engrave the tin lid with the LaserPecker 3 or spray the glass with black paint and engrave a special message.
4. You're my missing piece
Using the LaserPecker LaserPecker LP2, LP2 Plus, LP4 or LP5, you can cut out your puzzle pieces or any other shapes to make magnets, keyrings, and more. In this case, we created two different sizes of puzzle shapes and glued a magnet on the back to stick to the fridge. This is the perfect gift for those who want to add a small touch to a Valentine's Day card.
MDF material is available at most hardware and craft stores. When laser cutting, we recommend using MDF that is less than 3mm in width.
For bigger and thicker laser-cut puzzle for valentine's day, professional wood laser cutter like the LaserPecker LX2 is a great option.
5. Engraved Pizza boards
Most LaserPecker machines (except the LP3) are perfect for engraving wooden kitchen utensils. What better occasion than Valentine's Day to give or make homemade pizza boards? For small businesses, we recommend creating gift sets and including local ingredients; this is a great way to partner up with local eateries. In this case, we have used a wooden pizza cutter, but you can also engrave rolling pins and other wooden utensils.
Pizza boards are available online; however, we recommend sourcing a wood supplier if you want consistency with the boards you sell. As a small business, it is worth keeping a small stock in case you cannot find that exact board again.
6. Engraved Photograph Lighters
Using the LaserPecker LP3/4/5, you can engrave your happiest moments onto normal metal or stainless steel lighters.
Lighters are generally easily available online or in your local hardware shop and are sold without lighter fluid. You can always purchase the lighter fluid separately. If shipping, it's best to remind the buyer that the light doesn't come with any fluid.
The key to good photo-engravings is all in the initial edit of the photo. Editing the photo before uploading it to the LDS app is important; if not, the engraving could lose detail and contrast.
The first step is to change the photo to a black and white photograph and then increase the sharpness as well as the shadows and highlights. Keep adjusting them until you get a well-contrasted yet highlighted black-and-white photo.
For LaserPecker LP3, we recommend using the settings: resolution-4k, power-100%, depth-60%, pass-1.
To explore other recommended laserpecker engraving and cutting parameters, refer to the settings table that applies to any laserpecker machines, including LP1, LP2, LP3, LP4 and LX1.

7. Engraved Valentine's Heart Keyring
Using the LaserPecker LP3/4/5, you can engrave any special message, (including handwritten messages) onto stainless steel and other types of metal. Personalized heart keyrings are not only perfect for your keys but are also great accessories to add to your: luggage, wallets, purses, and handbags. They simply add, "that something special".
Stainless steel keyrings can easily be purchased online from various suppliers or your local craft supplier. We recommend purchasing small jewelry boxes to gift wrap your keyrings to complete the look. Most keyrings generally come in a little plastic bag, so the boxes elevate them and add that extra touch to the product and overall price.
The settings recommended for stainless steel keyrings are resolution-4k, power-100%, depth-20%, and pass-1.
8. Engraved Our Favourite Song
The LaserPecker LP3/4/5 are absolutely amazing when it comes to engraving QR codes or, even in this case, digital links to your favorite song. Engraving a link to your favorite song together is a perfect gift for him or her. No matter where you are, as long as you have a phone within reach, you can hear your cherished song and be reminded of that special someone or place.
The recommended settings for engraving QR codes on metal when using the LP3 are: resolution-4k, power-100%, depth-20%, and pass-1.
9. Engraved Love Padlock
The LaserPecker LP3/4/5 come in handy again to engrave personalized messages on padlocks.
For many years padlocks have symbolized locking two people into love, and even better if there is a key to open the heart. Other ideas apart from initials could be messages such as, "you hold the key to my heart" or a special date.
Padlocks can be found online, at Amazon, or even at hardware stores.
The recommended settings for engraving Love Padlock when using the LP3 are: resolution-4k, power-100%, depth-20%, and pass-1.
