Parcel Tags

It has been decided that for our exhibition we are going to create fliers from already exsisting fliers, painting them white and then screen printing ontop with our details. Recycling, cheap but probably slightly illegal, but we can probably get past that.

We also want to hand out parcel tags with details of our show being screen printed onto them. These tags can be left is strategic places and adds to the theme of lost property.

It has been my mission to buy the tags, 250 for handing out for marketing purposes but also another 1000 tags to use as a window display. By hanging the tags in the windows at the space it will mean that people are not only drawn to them (kind of as an art piece) but also means they can't see inside the shop very well, which will hopefully drag them inside.


I eventually settled on the site http://www.theessentialscompany.co.uk/ to buy the tags from. They are cheap and have a huge range of different sizes and colours, not to mention lots of other useful things from string to different papers. The parcel arrived within about 2 days of ordering them which I thought was good.


The only other main issue we currently have for getting these fliers and tags out there is getting enough support to get them printed. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Some of the marketing people have contributed literally nothing so I hope they at least show their faces this week.
