The basic design is an outline of a sunflower, with the petals filled in with a variety of fun colors.
These products can be used without signatures, but the signatures will make the items that much more fun and more memorable.
These products can be used to celebrate a new job, a promotion, a graduation, etc. What might you use and for what occasion?
First up is the large Colorful oversized Sunflower Autograph Card. Here, people can sign the petals on the front of the card, and the signatures can become part of the artwork. Or the verse area inside the card can be deleted if you want the signatures to be inside. If you want the verse, it can be customized for any occasion, on the provided template form.
These large cards come in a choice of three sizes: 18" x 24", 24" x 36", and 36" x 48". It ships in a giant envelope. The design is printed on durable opaque plastic that can be written on with a Sharpie. (Do wait between signatures for the Sharpie ink to dry.)
With the design printed on an apron, this memorable gift becomes a great choice for a chef, a baker, someone who works in bakery, etc.
The aprons come in a choice of three sizes: small, medium, and large. The strap colors come in a variety of choices, and you can even choose your color on a sliding color strip to pick your color!
The apron is made of 100% polyester, is machine wash cold on gentle cycle, with mild detergent. Do not use bleach and do not iron. This item is to be line dried, but a reviewer did say that it dries easily and still looks great.
Since this is a fabric, I would recommend acrylic paint markers for the signatures. Sharpies would probably bleed and spread out.
For a more permanent autograph gift, the wrapped canvas option makes a fun choice. The recipient could hang it on the wall as a daily reminder. For wrapped canvas, I would also recommend that the signatures be done with acrylic paint markers. They should provide a better light fastness than inks, and therefore hold up longer. The background color can be customized to coordinate with the recipient's decor, and or favorite color.
Also included in this collection are sweatshirts, tshirts, and gift wrapping sheets. Ideas and suggestions for other items that can be signed, are welcome. I tried to select items that could be easily signed, and also still be legible.
Here is the link for the current collection. Let me know if there is something you want designed that is currently there.
For those interested in reading the background, this design came about from the inspiration that I received on my original post about the sunflower outline, in which people could have the choice of coloring/painting it in themselves: Pretty Pink Sunflowers Home Collection. Sylvestermouse was reminded of autograph images and Barbara thought it would be fun if the petals were colored in a variety of colors. Voila, I decided to combine the two wonderful ideas. Thank you my friends for sharing your insights!
