Since I spent most of yesterday making all the packaging, I'm spending the next two days making all the labels for everything. I did some brief experimentation the other day with a couple of my ideas (Blog entry 38). I pretty much knew the style which I wanted to do these in, I just needed to see if it worked how I had thought it up in my head. So now, I'm making all of the labels in this style.

All of my items have some packaging on, the majority will have a larger, simple label on the front with my 'logo', and another label on the back with some information about 'Project House Sparrow' and the product, and how it helps. This label (above) is for the basket lid; at one point I was going to have a information book included in the kit, but there just wasn't enough time for me to work out what needed to go in it, to make it, to get it printed (etc.) but I did feel that the space on the back of the packaging wouldn't be enough space to write about the project and kit itself. I decided that instead of a book, a smaller, simpler label in the lid of the basket would allow me to give some info about the project and the contents of the basket, and would do the trick more effectively and simply than a book.
Have managed to get a couple of these labels done today (hopefully the few I have left to do will be simpler than these) - also need a final spell check (etc.) before printing ad putting it together, but I like to do that when I haven't been staring at it already for the best part of my day.
