Custom Labels for a Fundraiser Tea Event. - Label Ideas
by Amitea Organics ( Juidth )
Amitea Organics hand blends organic teas, using my own recipes, since 2005. We have worked with this fundraiser, Salud Hondu, for a number of years, each time with a different "theme." This year is "The Orient Express." It was requested I come up with an art deco type label for the retail teas sold at this event. I always have fun working with fundraisers as each one has a different mission and a different theme for their tea event.
Apart from serving Amitea Organics teas at this event, it is also a major fundraiser, and so they sell the served teas in retail boxes so people can enjoy them at home. A win for the fundraiser, and a win for me as I often gain repeat customers.<br/><br/>The packaging must convey my core values of being earth-friendly, plastic free, and recyclable. At the same time, the labels must project value, uniqueness and style and be in keeping with the theme of the event so as to be successful for the charity. <br/>I find the quality of all the many labels I use from Online Labels give me the options I need, and the quality I demand to make these qualities understood at a glance.
You don't always need a fancy printer or label program to make printing work. You do have to get to know the quirks of your particular printer though. Spend time experimenting with settings that will make a difference in the finished product. You can adjust the printer using the "calibrate printer" section to adjust the position of your labels so the finished product is aligned properly, don't give up, it takes fine tuning sometimes. If you don't have the patience or the knowhow just ask the nice people at Online Labels to print your ideas for you :)
