Minions and Packaging

Okay last week I was somewhat relaxed about what I had to do for the upcoming craftshow. But today I feel a sense of panic in everything that I have planned to do this weekend. Silly really as I actually also know I'll be okay. Nothing like unnecessary stress to get you going. All though I am sitting here drinking tea, writing this blog post and shopping for a Secret Santa gift for a work colleague. 

Anyho...

I received the last of the bits I needed to order for my packaging, additional business cards (which look and feel better than the gloss ones I got the first time round) and oodles of stickers (750) at the bargain price of £15. I'll certainly be using printed.com again for my marketing needs. They will be used on my boxes for the pictures and clocks, as well as sealing up my stripy paper bags and the white tissue paper. You can also see below that I am also making a felt version of my logo and I also whipped up some price labels ready for me to write on and then laminate. I was trying to think out a way of stiffening the paper I printed the labels on as I didn't have any card and then remembered stuffed away in a cupboard I have a laminator  Might as well put it to good use, glad I didn't get rid of it. So what remains for me to do is make oodles of baubles, and other bits and pieces....back to my list I go.

Now a couple of weeks ago you might recall I posted about the progress of one my stitching minions Laura. She contacted me recently to say that she's completed it and doesn't it look fab. So thrilled to see the design finished and in different colour way. Her assistance and my other Minion Jenny has been fantastic and already I have been tweeked the pattern, to get it to a stage I think I am really happy with. So thank you ladies. 

And now it's time to break away from the computer to crack on.
