How to make a fingerprint at home? (DIY)

At Studioco we make unique, personalized jewelry in which your fingerprint is engraved. Do you want to have your print engraved in a piece of jewelry? Then we need a clear image or scan of your fingerprint. Luckily, you can easily make your own fingerprint at home with a pencil. Follow these steps and upload your print directly to our website!

What do you need?

  • A regular pencil
  • A white sheet of paper
  • Transparent adhesive tape

How do you make a fingerprint?

1. Color a plane with pencil

Color a small, dark area on the paper with the pencil. Make sure it is really black by coloring multiple layers.

2. Rub your finger over the pencil surface

Gently rub your finger over the pencil surface until your finger is covered with graphite.

3. Stick the tape on your finger

Take a piece of clear tape and press it onto your finger where the graphite is. Be careful not to make any bubbles.

4. Stick the tape on the paper

Carefully remove the tape from your finger and place it on a clean piece of paper. You will now see your fingerprint!

5. Take a clear photo or scan

Lay the paper flat under good light and take a sharp photo from directly above. You can also scan the print for the best result. Are you unsure whether your fingerprint is clear enough? Do not hesitate to contact us .

Your fingerprint tells a unique story, and we are happy to engrave it in a beautiful jewel. Upload your image or scan via our website, and we will make sure that your jewel is as special as you are! Do you have any questions? Feel free to contact us.

Good luck!
