Street Party and Upcoming Items
During the Street Party that was held after the Royal Wedding, we have managed to sell a couple of our products and have gotten more people to notice us. We are still working really hard to sell as much of our products as possible!
But other than that, we have been creating new ideas as to what else our customers and future customers would want, so that we could reach your expectations of our products.
We are close to finally putting up our new products on our websites, so check/follow us on our websites below!
Have a good week!

It’s the Royal Wedding tomorrow and we would like all of you to check out (and buy) our Royal Wedding Invite Shirt!
But as for the other shirts, we have received more Magic Touch paper, which we will then print out more of our designs, making sure that when we sell them, we have enough products available.
We’ve also set up our own Twitter and Facebook account so it’s easier for us to get in contact with everyone!
And we’re excited to announce that we have our first personalized shirt for a Music Artist that we’re going to be showing you really soon! We’re hoping to get as much more clients to help us gain more popularity for our products to be noticed.

Coming to the last set of Hurdles!!
1st April 2011
Last week in our t-shirt project we decide that we are going to rent a stall and sell our product on a stall ourselves than sell to a store. This means that we have had to contact stall management at Camden and research into prices and times. Also that we need to look into Public Liberty Insurance to sell our product on a stall. We also added some new images to the design such as the pigeons and foxes to symbolise London. The next step for us is to print more t-shirts and bags ready to sell them.

This week we have printed some more designs onto t-shirts. We received some sample paper from Magic Touch to trial as well, which we shall trial next week as our printer would not take the paper but on the good hand we are still printing more of our designs out for you to see! We have come up with sale ideas on our tees that will be displayed on our etsy site very soon. Hopefully next we shall be getting a lot more designs printed and on our site for you to see.

Final Printing the T-shirts
March 10, 2011
Another week...
In the previous week we have done loads and loads more market research. As you can see it does take much of our time, as this is a vital part of the process.
The production team where doing trial T-shirts, and testing the transfer paper to see how it comes out. Also, people where transferring the designs onto the transfer paper from the colour printer. Some scans of deigns and sketches where made and we made a collage.
We got to stage 2 of logo designs, which conclude with 3 possibilities of our company logo, which we are holding a vote for. The graphic design team where editing drawings on Photoshop and just cleaning the edges up.
And the promotion team set up a Facebook for our logo!

Research, Printing and Laughter.
Last week we carried on our market research and two of us visited Hampstead, but we found there were not so many boutiques or gift shops mostly high street shops. We have learnt by market research the best place to sell our T-shirts is Camden as it has a lot of gift shops and our design of T-shirt will fit in well in Camden rather than Hampstead. We completed more design on photo shop and printing on transfer paper to print on T-shirts . We tested our designs on different coloured T-shirts to see how it affects the design.
Isha took some photos of people modelling the T-shirts. After many weeks of designing and researching we are excited to finally get our designs on the shirts and looking forward to getting them out in the streets and selling them.

Trolling through...
February 17, 2011
What we have done so far
We are designing t-shirts to do with London Icons with a quirky design to it and possibly sell them locally. The first thing we all did, was research London icons and drew them out, to give us ideas for our T-shirts.
We gave our ideas a twist to make the theme of london more interesting. We looked at the prices of hiring a stall at Camden Market and other places, to sell our T-shirts. We have focused a lot on market research mainly online and also getting out and about to find out information.
We have also started testing T-shirt prints to see how our designs come out. We talked about what we like and don't like and how we can make it better. We have also discussed the designs for the finishing product and what needs to be changed.
