The decision on my brand name was surprisingly easy - Magpie and Lace. I'm a through-and-through magpie, my head turns and my heart longs as soon as I see any jewellery or pretty things. And what is prettier and more dainty than lace?
So once I had decided on a name, I designed myself a logo. I researched some pictures of magpies and then drew an outline of what I wanted as well as the text. I then scanned this in used Inkscape, a free download to convert it into a logo that, not to brag, I'm rather proud of.
So this ...
Became this ...
Not bad right? Now that I had a name I could set up an Etsy shop (more on that in a later post) and order some business cards from Vistaprint to start spreading the word. It was incredibly easy to do both. And now I'm ready for the world as Magpie and Lace. Bring it on!
