Shadow boxes come in small to extra-large sizes to suit different items. At Pacdora, you can pick the perfect size to turn your treasures into showpieces.

A smaller size like 16 × 20'' can elegantly showcase medals or small Polaroid photos. For a bold, statement display of larger keepsakes, opt for the 24 × 30'' or 30 × 40'' shadow box size.

FAQ

How can I customize a shadow box on Pacdora?

Just open Pacdora and follow these 3 key steps:

  1. Choose your desired shadow box from our library.
  2. Upload your design images and adjust it in real-time. You can tweak details like the text, background color, and other key elements.
  3. Export your custom shadow box as a HD PNG/JPG image or MP4 video.

Customizing a shadow box is that easy on Pacdora.

How much depth do I need for my shadow box?

It definitely depends on what you want to display. A depth of 1 to 2 inches works best for smaller items like photos. Medium-sized keepsakes, such as flowers or medals, look best with 3 to 5 inches of depth. But if you want to showcase bulkier items like a signed basketball or football jersey, then 5+ inches is ideal.

What's the right backing material to use for a shadow box?

The right backing material should enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of the items displayed. Fabrics like velvet or linen can add a touch of luxury to wedding keepsakes or military medals. For a more personal touch, opt for patterned scrapbook paper to make your display feel more playful and one-of-a-kind.
