Pet tags
Hello, my dear neighbors.
There is a creative 13-year-old boy named Barry. He pursues his dream of becoming a laser engraver in his spare time.
His first project was to create a custom tag for a friend’s pet. Barry designed a cute pattern, engraving the pet’s name on the front and a phone number on the back to prevent the pet from getting lost. The finished tag was both beautiful and practical, and the friend’s dog seemed very pleased with it.
As time went by, Barry’s skills improved, and his engraving work began to be loved by friends and neighbors. He started receiving various custom requests, including engraving names on tools or water bottle to prevent loss and engraving photos on necklaces and keychains to preserve precious memories.
If any neighbors are interested, they can check out his Instagram(byrk_goods). Thank you all for your support!
