How to Create a Personalized Cutting Board with a Custom Text Field in the App
In this article, we will guide you through the process of creating a personalized cutting board with a custom text field using the Reliable Pod app. With just a few simple steps, you'll be able to design and upload your unique cutting board design seamlessly.
1. Introduction
Personalized products are a great way to add a personal touch to your kitchen. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of creating a custom cutting board with a personalized text field using the Reliable Pod app. Whether you want to create a unique gift or add a personal touch to your own kitchen, this guide will help you bring your design to life.
2. Getting Started with the App
2.1 Creating a New Personalized Product
To get started, open the Reliable Pod app and navigate to the "New Personalized Product" section. Here, you'll find a variety of products to choose from. Click on "Home Office" and select the "Glass Cutting Board" option.
2.2 Adding the Background Image
Once you've selected the glass cutting board, you'll see a mock-up of the product. To add your design, click on "Start Designing" and then click on the "Add" button. This will prompt you to upload your background image. Choose the image you've created previously and click "Add that Layer". Make sure to lock the image to prevent accidental movement.
2.3 Adding a Text Area
Next, click on the "Add Text Area" button to create a text field for personalization. Position the text box where you want it to appear on the cutting board. Use the "Advanced Positioning" option to fine-tune the placement. Set the default font to "Dancing Script" and fix it to prevent customers from changing the font style.
2.4 Customizing Text Options
In the text options section, make sure to turn on the "Mandatory" option to ensure customers provide text for personalization. You can also enable the "Auto Adjust Size" feature, which automatically adjusts the font size to fit within the designated area. It's recommended to leave the other options like styling, alignment, transformation, and movability turned off for simplicity.
3. Working with Mockups
To preview your design, click on the "Mockups" button. You'll be presented with various mockup options for your personalized cutting board. Take your time to review them and select the ones that best showcase your design. Once you're satisfied, click "Confirm" to save the mockups.

In this step, you can add tags that will help customers find your product easily. Keep the titles and tags simple and descriptive. You can also add personalization instructions, such as "Please enter your text below", to guide the customers on how to provide the necessary information.
4.3 Selecting Categories and Shipping Profiles
Choose the appropriate category for your cutting board on Etsy. If needed, create a new category and select it. Ensure you have a shipping profile already set up in your Etsy store to proceed with this step.
4.4 Pricing the Product
Set the pricing for your cutting board. You can adjust the pricing based on your preferences, market trends, and production costs. Once you're satisfied, click "Add to Store" to finalize the process.
