Momentous Collections FAQs

Momentous Collections FAQs

Here’s why you’re drawn to our product (It’s magnetism!) and some FAQs to creating your own MOMENTOUS COLLECTION. 

1. Where are your magnets produced?

Our magnet equipment and materials are made in the USA and small-batch produced in Canada. 

 

 2. How do I make sure my magnets look like the pictures I upload when they’re printed?

Follow these tips for full satisfaction of your uploads.

a. If part of the image you want to showcase on your magnet is outside of the dotted red line during upload view, it won’t show on the front side of your magnet. This is the small portion that wraps around the magnet to provide a quality seal. Work with crop to zoom, or select an image that is fully within the dotted red line to avoid unnecessary cropping. 

b. Pick images similar in colour tones, clarity and density. This will give a “collection” look to your set. Your magnets are small-batched and made one-by-one with our automated printing system. 

c. What is an Automated Printing System?

We use a high quality eco tank printer (we love the environment). Ink is high quality and we make sure there’s no smudges before moving to the magnet-making stage. Our paper is photo quality and we calibrate both our printer and photoshop settings to the unique printing settings of our paper.

Our automated printing settings linked to your specific uploads allow photoshop to enhance, but not alter your colour files. It is important to note that what colours or density you view can change across different monitors, phones, etc and our last enhancement stage is calibrated to provide full satisfaction on the printed results, but is not a colour-correction step. Use the colour enhancement, edit and filter options available during our upload process for best results. We do not do this one-by-one for your uploads, but our upload software allows you to.

3. Are your magnets waterproof?

No, they are not waterproof but they are wrapped in a high quality mylar protecting your memories from dust and minor spills.

Your magnets are best in a non-humid area and out of long exposure to direct sunlight. (Lingering rays of the sun as they pass through your home and across your magnets is a-okay).

 

4. How long will it take to get my magnets?

We will produce your magnets within 5-7 days of your order. The exception is our group orders where a pre-determined time frame is set up with you as well as a pick-up option. This is available with our fundraising partnerships. 

 

5. What if my magnets are shipped and do not meet my expectations? 

Please review our Return Policy for details.

 

6. Can I order large quantities for my business or fundraiser?

We LOVE to work with our community and various good causes! Please email us at info@momentouscollections.com for more details.

 

7. Who is behind Momentous Collections? And why magnets?

I am Kristy, and I believe that it’s in the regular, everyday slowed down moments of our life that we find meaning and joy. My lifetime passion with photography and gratitude practice of capturing the moments made this little side-gig a perfect choice. The little things, the fleeting moments; they’re not small. They are MOMENTOUS and in collection, they create our story. Showcase your moments, don’t store them. 

I am a busy professional who thrives in my “day job”.  Momentous Collections came about as an insight to an opportunity to create while building partnerships with our communities. It’s a win-win!

We believe in the “ous” (fullness & abundance) of our moments. I can’t wait to showcase the “ous” in your moments and I know you will love your magnets!
