I was looking for stamps that might be used to brand the candy boxes and things. I love the idea of using stamps. And it will be more affordable than getting boxes made. But probably not more affordable than screen printing.
At this point I think I may set up a screen printing facility in my office. It’s a good trade to learn anyway.
Regardless, Rick at Hollywood and I tried some different inks on the candy boxes. The look is good. I’m definitely going to need to stamp some things.
Two boxes of clothes arrived yesterday at the 23E sweatshop on the Oregon coast.
We are very excited about this. It now appears certain that our concession stand will feature at least 23 pieces of clothing, each hand embroidered with our logo. Well, I think. As with most aspects of the project, I’ve tried to leave open my request so that the embroider can create something that is as exciting for me to see as everyone else.
I can say she has the logos for both 23E and Disembody. So I imagine they’ll be a part of what we get back.
We also expect to have rings and broaches for sale at the concession stand. I am very excited about these. If the people who are definitely supplying goods had websites, I’d link through to them. But they don’t. What kind of sweatshop has a website?
We’ll also have a perfume available. With luck, we’ll have a few. The perfumer, Yosh Han, has been a part of the project since conception. She created the scent for The MVM work, The Henry Wing, last year. It was a fabulous scent. We are super excited that we are working with her again.
