New Years Gifts

For a "tasteful" New Years gift from an investment firm to their clients, we put together our current favorite edibles in a huge wooden cheesebox with their logo fire-branded on the lid.

Our current faves? We're glad you asked! Smoked sea salt popcorn, Ultra-thin white chocolate Macadamia cookies, Dark chocolate rum raisin spirit-infused bundt cake for two, Tuscan-style almonds, Hot cocoa sticks, a tin of English Breakfast tea, and of course custom printed biscotti and chocolate-covered marshmallows with their logo. 2010 can't be bad with that kind of start!

We have a lot of projects to catch you up on - so visit again soon!

Fire-branded boxes... as centerpieces

Sometimes our clients come up with uses for things that we haven't even thought of... like this bride who is using these fire-branded wooden boxes to hold the flower centerpieces at her rehearsal dinner.

The party is taking place in an airport hanger; hence the airplane graphic with their initials and wedding date as the planes registration number. Gotta love creative clients!

Etched Splits for Museum Party

The Minneapolis Institute of Art is thrilled to host their new exhibit, "The Louvre and the Masterpiece", masterpieces of visual art from the world-famous Musée du Louvre. With the exhibit opening October 18th, they had a private viewing and party for members of the museum the night before. Lucky for us, they wanted to create sponsor gifts and guest favors.

The invitation wording was etched in silver on splits of Champagne. Each bottle was nestled in wood excelsior in a wooden crate with a printed paper band that mimicked the invitation design, wrapped around the crate. A silver custom wax seal with their logo held the paper ribbon printed with each sponsors name.

The splits were also used as favors at the actual event and were held in custom-made wooden boxes with the museum logo fire-branded onto the sliding lid. Here's to an exhibit well worth toasting!
