What we've been working on this week

We always enjoy our work.  Digitizing, embroidering, and designing feed our creative urges - but every once in a while we get to work on a project that's just so much fun!  This week, we've been working on some super cute burp cloths for a customer who's about to become a new Aunt.  We worked with her for well over an hour, choosing designs, colors, fonts and sayings - and now seeing these little guys all stitched is making us all giddy! Embroiderd burp cloths or cloth diapers are always a great, fun and memorable gift to give an expectant Mom.  Not only are they cute as can be, but they also can be so sweet and personal.  We're loaded with ideas over here, so why don't you come in and have us create a truly memorable gift for your next gift-giving occasion?  We can always use more "giddiness!"

Brand your Business: Earth-Friendly Water Bottles

Happy May, everyone!  Now that we are finally enjoying longer, sunnier days and winter has truly been left behind, it's time to start thinking of how to incorporate promotional products into your seasonal promotions.  For instance, if you run an inn or hotel, why not consider offering a hiking, biking package complete with branded water bottle? This BPA free bottle is also earth-friendly and  fully biodegradable, designed to biodegrade within 1-5 years in a managed landfill. It comes in white or natural high density polyethylene with red, blue, black, dark green or green top, and it's made in the USA! For more promotional ideas, check out our online catalog.
