Well, I've been busy with a lot of Taylor Made design products and thought I'd show some of them since I have a lot of new people visiting my blog. They might not be familiar with my stuff :)
I finished a custom order for a mini taylor book. {top photo, pink} I love when people custom order because they put together totally different stocks and colours than I normally would. Which is so great. Love getting a new and different perspective. Every book is treated with ScotchGuard™ and comes nicely packaged. I also offer gift certificates for those of you interested. {i did a few of them for christmas for people - see lower left photo} These books are the perfect size to fit into your handbag and keep all your notes handy. I actually get a lot of orders from event planners. They are able to customize their books to their events and it's a gift that their attendees will actually use way past the event.
I have a bunch of new bookcloth colours: brown, teal, and a vibrant green. I'm going to upload my catalog for my books and have them on my sidebar. That way I won't have to keep emailing them out. I don't know why I did not do that earlier! I will also upload my TAG it catalog as well.
I am doing a lot of custom orders for my wine tags. I did a couple of weddings last fall and the wine stores are loving them. Customizing tags are a terrific way to extend your brand. I just received an inquiry from a dentist rep. She has some great idea about branding. Very exciting.
And of course I am always making up silkscreen ribbon to tie my packages up. I get a lot of emails asking me how I am able to print my ribbon so clearly. And the answer is practice :) There are so many variables in printing the ribbon. The moisture in the air can affect the ink, the type of ribbon and it's ability to accept the ink is important too. I always practice on some ribbon before I start on a final roll. Sometimes it takes quite a few goes with the Gocco press before I am happy with the results and I am able to start on the final ribbon roll. Barbara just emailed me asking if the ribbon was washable... and I have no idea ~ So today I'm going to throw some in with a load of laundry and find out :) I will let you know the results. Meanwhile, have a wonderful day!
