Pictures, Pictures, Presents, and Presentation
I’m a firm believer in the addage that it’s the thought that counts, only I take that a step further and believe that the presentation of a gift plays a large role in the perception of that gift by the recipient as well. I love to package things uniquely, but I also like to present the items in their package in an attractive and professional looking manner. I feel by so doing that the items I put so much time and effort into such as knitting a pair of socks, spinning a skein of yarn, or hand dyeing yarn or fiber will recieve that much more respect and appreciation from the gift recipient. Plus, it gives you a place to give them important information such as fiber content and care instructions! This is the reason that all of my sock patterns come with a free sock wrapper.
Knitting, spinning, and dyeing are top items on my list of enjoyed activites. However, I cannot restrict myself to only those activities all the time - of course. I also enjoy photography, digital photo editing, and design. So, it was only natural to combine all of these into one project.
Yesterday marked the release of a variety of tags and wrappers for anything from hand knit socks, shawls, sweaters, scarves, mittens and gloves, to hand spun or hand dyed yarn. All the current offerings feature my own photography, in some cases altered some and in other cases altered drastically. The tags are great for larger items and once printed can be punched and strung with coordiating yarn or pretty ribbons and attached in a variety of ways. The wrappers are great for those small projects like socks, mittens, gloves, or even the skinny scarves that are popular. The designs can all be customized with your name or a logo if you wish, or you can order one-of-a-kind labels for you or your business!
I have got more designs in the works that will be added early next week. Mostly they include more tags and wrappers for hand spun yarn and more of the mandala-based round tags.
