I need some help here. I have some bottles of liqueur that I'm giving family for Christmas gifts and I need to find either a place in the DFW or Tyler area that can glass etch on bottles already filled or I need to find small wooden gift boxes (bottles are 7 inches tall by 4 inches wide) that can be laser engraved. I've GTS'd it and can't find exactly what I have in mind. Any of y'all know someone? Thanks!

I used to know a man that etched headstones. As a sideline he also etched glass. Basically you need a sandblaster, a thin rubber pattern and sand. As to some one that can do that, I would start with asking around the graveyard headstone providers in you area. Here is a short course

If you're industrious and a little creative, you can probably do it yourself. In a pre-college job as a night helicopter dispatcher, one of the pilots I worked with used to make custom etched glass coffee cups using this stuff. https://www.amazon.com/Armour-Etch-15-0200-Cream-10-Ounce/dp/B001BE3UM4If you can cut or buy your stencil, it's an option. Will only cost you $20 to find out. Charlie

Don't know your budget, but something personalized like this, I'd try Etsy.....good site for stuff like this, at least the boxes you're looking for.
