Create a DIY accent wall on a budget. Measure out your wall or freehand a cute and creative backdrop to your space. Simply stamp your impression repetitively in the pattern of your choice.

Large Stamp Types and FAQs

Depending on what you are using your stamp for, different styles will work best for your needs. Explore our curated selection of large self-inking, wood handle, and pre-inked stamps. We have pre-made designs for address stamps and signature stamps. If you are looking to explore your creative side, we also offer custom options like art stamps and large custom logo stamps!

Self-Inking Stamps -

Perfect for crisp, clean, and rapid stamping. These self-inking stamps come with your choice of ink color already included in the stamp body. A self-inking body leaves thousands of quality impressions before needing to be re-inked. These stamps are ideal for repetitive stamping and are commonly used for address stamps, signature stamps, daters, and more!

Pre-Inked Stamps -

Use an inked stamp for imprints with fine details and designs. Our pre-inked stamps, like the xstamper, have an internal ink reservoir that allows ink to permeate through the body onto the rubber dye. This style is ideal for intricate imprints and would be great for art pieces and special projects.

Wood Handle Stamps -

This classic type of stamping is most common in the crafting space. What is so great about a traditional wood stamp is easily switching your ink color with your imprint. Wood rubber stamps are easy to clean, collect, and create personal impressions every time you stamp. The rubber design is adhered to a wooden stamp body and imprints by pressing on your stamp pad and back onto your project.

Rocker Stamps -

Much like a wooden handstamp, a rocker mount stamp features a rubber die adhered to the bottom of a wood stamp body. The rocker stamp features a rounded bottom that allows for a larger impression size that is stamped by moving the handle from side to side. Simply rock your stamp onto your large ink pad to create your colored imprint. This stamp is great for leaving big impressions of your company logo on all your branding materials!
