MuskokaMom Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Kate, your latest version is by far the best. Less busy than with the keyhole. I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdscreations Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I love your latest version. It is simple yet elegant. UNIQUE!! I would definately stop and take a closer look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate Posted February 21, 2006 Author Share Posted February 21, 2006 Thank you all so much for your input. I printed the last two labels that I posted (the plain door and the one with the half cutout) and put them on my bottles - they look different printed than they do on the screen - and I'm undecided about which one I like. I took them to work and my coworkers are split 50/50 about which one is better. As one coworker put it, the door cutout is more attention grabbing, while the plain door is more understated and elegant. So, I'm still at a loss, lol.

sockmonkey Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Did you try reducing the leading on your ingredient listing? Maybe it's not practical, but I think your label works the way it is. However, for some reason, my eyes keep reverting back to the ingredients.By the way, how big will your labels be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate Posted February 22, 2006 Author Share Posted February 22, 2006 I did change it around a little since I posted ... here's the update, and I'm sure I'll change it some more! I'm never, ever satisfied with my labels....This one was sized for a my 4 oz malibus, so it's 1.5" x 3.6." I'm also using an 8oz bullet bottle, so for that I'll be able to stretch it out much more, and I think it will look better.Right now I'm thinking of doing the cutout door on the malibus, it just fits better with the curve of the top of the bottle, and using this one for my bullets. Then again, I'm wary of using two label styles ... decisions, decisions! I'm sure I'll get some feedback at the first show I do with these, most people have no problem telling me what they think!Edited to add:Holy crap, what was I thinking with those keyholes? LOL! Looking back, I'm quite embarrassed that I even posted them! The concept in my mind was much better ... really it was... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockmonkey Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Don't be embarassed. It's a creative process. If you never started with that, you wouldn't be where you are today.One last thing...if this were my label I would move the weight to the very bottom of the label and center it. It's pretty standard to look a bottle or can of anything and see the weight listed on the bottom of the label. I will say this though, having it placed where it currently is really makes me notice your phone number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate Posted February 22, 2006 Author Share Posted February 22, 2006 Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give that a try - when I realized I had forgotten the weight in the shuffle, I just kinda slapped it on there, I really didn't know where the heck to put it. Thanks for your help and suggestions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
