Personalized matches

Have any of you ordered personalized matchbooks? The Knot has the best prices I've found so far, but I've read some mixed reviews about the quality.

I'm doing my own cigar bar. There are a ton of templates online to make your own. So, I will be making my own, putting out cutters, cigars, decor, etc.

How would you make your own? Print on Labels & stick them to the matchbooks? Good idea! Cheapest I found was the knot too but the reviews worried me

The reviews on the knot aren't great, but I have heard their customer service is decent and that people who had issues with them being incorrect were able to get new ones that were corrected. Just make sure you order with plenty of time just in case. Also, I've heard the Knot's black Friday sale is the best if you can wait until then.

Not a matchbook but a matchbox. They sell about 10 of them for a $1 at Walmart. Then you can edit the template print and stick it on! Super easy!

Thanks for the tip! I will definitely hold out until then to decide if that's what I want to go with.

I was thinking about doing it myself, but then didn't want to give myself another project. However - that does sound super easy so I'll see if I can find blank matchbooks. Thanks for the suggestion :)
