New packaging revealed!

November 5, 2012

Yeah! I’m so excited to share this new packaging with you! It’s been in the works for quite some time and I was finally able to see it all come together this weekend. (Just in time for the holidays-hehe)

I recently came up with the logo design and it took some time to turn it digital so I could get it printed as a stamp. I’m really happy with the way it turned out. I got 4 stamps made in total. A large logo stamp for my thank you/care cards. A smaller logo stamp for the top of the jewelry boxes. The story of _____ by OhSoAntsy stamp is for the bags that everything goes into. I also got my blog address turned into a stamp for both the back of the jewelry boxes and also the mailing envelope. I think it makes the boxes look even more professional and I just love it! I had so much fun stamping everything.

In case you’re wondering where these adorable stamps are from the company is called Simon Stamp. I’ve used them for a while now for all my stamping needs and I’ve been really pleased. I personally chose to go with the wooden handle stamps for a more vintage feel but they have a lot of different options.

Collaboration with great lakes clean water

October 30, 2012

A few years ago my dad founded the Great Lakes Clean Water Organization. A non-profit with the mission to promote the collection and disposal of unused and unwanted drugs in a safe and approved manner. This in an effort to keep harmful drugs and chemicals out of ground water, surface water and municipal water systems in Michigan and the Great Lakes region.

In 2009 Great Lakes Clean Water began the Yellow Jug Old Drugs program in order to safely collect and dispose of unwanted and unused drugs. Pharmacies across Michigan take part in the program where they collect unused drugs which are then picked up by Yellow Jug and properly disposed of.

To read more and find out how you can help please visit their website.

Because I believe so much in the program and want to see if grow even more and continue to expand to all of the Great Lakes states I am offering to donate 10% of your sales to the program. I will be offering this through the end of the year. All you have to do is mention Great Lakes Clean Water or Yellow Jug Old Drugs in your order and 10% of the sale price will go directly to the organization. How cool is that?
