Your music box or ornament can be customized in many ways! For all our music boxes and musical ornaments, audio of your choice will play at the push of a button. The back of the ornament, as well as the the underside of the music box lid can be customized with a photo and/or personalized text.

Some boxes and ornaments include more customization options such as a photo on the top (music box) or front(ornament), lyrics, personalized message, accent color. Some music boxes also have a choice of side panels.

For all customizations, the product page will prompt you for all the necessary information. Any concerns or special details can be sent to Contact@DavidsonWorkshop.com.

After your order, we will send you a preview by email to ensure your satisfaction.

Your music box or ornament will arrive with the custom audio ready to play!

Your photo will be printed directly onto the music box or ornament surface.

Landscape oriented photos work best with the aspect ratio of the box (4:3 for the top of the lid or front of the ornament, 3:2 for the inside of the lid or back of the ornament). However, any photo orientation can be used, and we will make sure it is cropped to fit correctly.

The higher the quality of the image, the better the photo print will be. An original image will always work better than a screenshot.

Yes! Any audio can be used. This could be a song, voicemail, or audio from a video.

Include any YouTube link or MP3 file in your order or send it to Contact@DavidsonWorkshop.com.

Up to about 8 minutes of audio can be used.

Yes. Along with the YouTube link, you can include a timestamp of the audio you would like.

To play audio from the music box, press the button located in the lower left corner on the top of the lid. The play button for the ornament is located at the lower left corner on the front of the ornament. While audio is playing, pressing the button will stop the audio. Pressing again will play the audio from the beginning, or if your box or ornament has multiple songs, the next track will be played.

Opening and closing the lid does not affect playback of the music box.

Your music box or ornament does not contain a traditional clockwork mechanism with metal pins. Instead, the audio is played from a speaker concealed within the lid (music box) or ornament.

The audio will sound exactly like the YouTube link or audio file you provide. If you prefer a traditional music box sound, there are “music box” versions of many songs available on YouTube.

When you find a version you like, include the YouTube link or MP3 file in your order or send it to Contact@DavidsonWorkshop.com.

Any song lyrics or custom wording can be used for the record spiral. Many people choose lyrics, poetry, or a personalized message.

Approximately 75-650 characters (including spaces) works best. A site like wordcounter.net can be helpful in figuring out the character count.
