Acrylic Finishing

Each piece of acrylic finishing we produce is made by hand in the USA and is 100% custom - no limitations to pre-built trays, coasters, etc. Whether you're looking for a game table, a individual coaster, or something in between, we've got you covered!

What Are My Options For Acrylic Finishing?

Since each piece is made custom there are no limits to the options available. Sizes start at coasters and go all the way up to free-standing. We can use colored acrylic, make hinged boxes, or anything your heart desires.

Because each piece is made custom and the process has two steps (flat backing then acrylic) you can expect lead times to fall in the 5-6 month range.

  • Coasters

    Coasters are made to the exact size of your finished needlepoint, which is always removable from the acrylic sleeve. Enjoy 20% off sets of four or more coasters!

  • Trays

    Trays can range in size from a small vide poche all the way up to a serving tray and will include applied or cut out handles depending on the size. We use high quality 1/4" acrylic for for added durability. The needlepoint is removable, allowing multiple inserts to fit the same piece of acrylic hardware.

  • Boxes

    Boxes, just like trays, are made to exact specifications of your needlepoint piece and are never started until we have the needlepoint insert in-hand. The dimensions are 100% customizable to fit your storage needs.

  • Game Boards & Tables

    Game boards are built just like trays with the added benefit of a holder for gameplay pieces. You can choose to have a free standing table or a handled tray to play in whichever room you'd like.

  • Open Top Holders

    This style of finish is great from mail/card holders, recipes, or even napkins. Great for holding items that require a little more depth than a traditional tray.

Estimated Lead Times

Acrylic Finishing is a two step process that starts with blocking, backing, & cording your needlepoint. From there we work with the acrylic finisher to make a custom tray. Total time is 5-6 months.

2024 Finishing Deadline

To ensure each piece receives the love & attention it deserves, and to allow time to get your finishing up before the Holidays, the deadline for Holiday 2024 is May 20th, 2024.

Instructions For Sending In Finishing

Where Should I Send It?

Mail your piece(s) to either Lycette Designs location:

Lycette Palm Beach

230 S County Rd. Suite A, Palm Beach, FL 33480.


Lycette Newport

92 William St, Newport, RI 02840.

How Should I Package It?

Please send your finishing in a box or padded mailer - rolling or placing the canvas between two pieces of cardboard is preferred. We recommend securing your needlepoint in a plastic zip-loc type bag to prevent any potential water damage.

What Should I Include?

Be sure to include your best contact information in the package along with your first and last name. You can also let us know the best times to try to reach you!

You may also choose to include notes about the piece(s). Feel free to print out or reference photos, a napkin sketch, Instagram posts, etc.

If you have a very specific fabric, material, or trim you'd like it may be best to include it. We'll always return any unused materials with your completed piece.

What Happens After I've Sent It?

When your piece(s) arrives at Lycette we will contact you via your preferred method as soon as possible. Based on demand and store traffic this may take up to three days from the day you see your item's tracking update to Delivered.

When we contact you we will go over any notes that were provided, discuss finishing details, choose fabric/trims, etc. From there it is off to the finisher!
