Where to Buy Ice Sculptures in Michigan

Icon Ice brings artistry to Fenton, Michigan in a cool way!

Snow and ice are a given in Michigan. From Halloween into late March, it is an expected and accepted part of our daily forecast. And while many people dread the cold, most still appreciate the delicate beauty of fresh fallen snow and branches thick with ice that almost look to be made of glass. Fragile and dangerous, ice has a way of capturing our imaginations with its glittering surface and the way it holds light in its reflections. Throughout winter, snow and ice festivals abound in Michigan. Competition carvers come from all over the world to show their mastery over this fickle medium. Combating time and temperatures to create works of art they know will be fleeting is a labor of love. If you have never attended one of these festivals, please read on.

The sun glares off pure white snow and solid blocks of pristine ice rise up like prehistoric monoliths. The artist's blank canvas. The air is crisp and whips around as the sculptor's tools take purchase, glistening chunks of ice spray out and the transformation begins. Crowds gather with hot cocoa and scarves to watch as the artist reveals the form within the ice. As the sun sets, work lights are set up so the sculptor can complete their mission. The ice traps the light in its glassy surface, and it dances like a captured flame. The work is done. The sculpture is complete. And it is...magic.

Imagine bringing that artistry and magic to your next special event. Ice sculptures are more than just form as well. Several designs lend themselves to function, too! Ice bars and luges are a popular trend. Entire buffets can be created to hold treats best kept on ice like shrimp and sushi. Frames for photo ops can be created for keepsake memories, and corporate logos are given the cool treatment when they are recreated in ice. So...where do you go to buy these?

At Behind Your Design, we enjoy partnering with businesses that are passionate about what they do. That is exactly what we found while working with Superior Lawn & Landscape. From launching a new website to developing branded merchandise and planning a grand opening celebration, this project focused on supporting the continued growth of a company proud to serve its clients. A Website Designed to Reflect the Brand One of the first steps was creating a website that showcases the professionalism, experience, and range of services Superior Lawn & Landscape offers. The goal was to build a strong digital presence that clearly communicates the company’s capabilities while making it easy for potential clients to explore their services. Clean layouts, organized service pages, and strong visuals guide visitors through the site while highlighting the company’s landscaping expertise and portfolio. The website also incorporates content from clients and partners, allowing real voices and experiences to help tell the story of the brand. Capturing the Work Through Photography To bring authenticity to the website, we coordinated a professional photo shoot to capture the team, their equipment, and examples of completed projects. Custom photography adds personality and allows visitors to see the craftsmanship and attention to detail in each project. Extending the Brand Beyond the Website Our partnership did not stop with the website. We also created a collection of custom branded merchandise to thank clients and promote the brand. Items included blankets, flashlights, beach towels, Melin hats, tumblers, and key chains, keeping the brand visible throughout the community. Celebrating the Next Chapter With the new website and branding pieces in place, the next step is celebrating this milestone. Behind Your Design is planning Superior Lawn & Landscape’s grand opening celebration on Thursday, June 4. The event will bring together clients, partners, and community members to celebrate the company’s continued growth. We are proud to work alongside Superior Lawn & Landscape and look forward to seeing their team continue to create beautiful outdoor spaces for years to come.

When you're choosing a spring or summer promo item, the real question is simple: Will someone actually use this? If you live anywhere near lakes, boats, kayaks, camping, or summer travel, dry bags are a no-brainer. These aren’t just cute swag items. They’re so functional. You put your phone, wallet, keys, towel, inside, anything you don’t want getting wet. Roll the top down. Clip it shut. It seals everything in. If it falls in the water? Your stuff stays dry. That alone makes it valuable. And here’s what we love about them from a branding standpoint, not many companies are doing them yet. Everyone has water bottles and tote bags. A dry bag stands out. Even better? It actually lives with someone all summer long. In their kayak. On their boat. In their camper. At the beach. At tournaments. On vacation. That’s real visibility. If you're planning a golf outing, marina promotion, summer festival, or outdoor corporate event, this is the kind of promo piece people will thank you for and keep.
