Packaging : NOON Wine

NOON is a brand which offers two different types of wine: a chardonnay which is labeled "before" and a merlot which is labeled "after". NOON was chosen as the brand name because the word movement works well when the bottle is in use, since NOON appears the same when viewed upside down, rotated, and backwards.


Here is how my wine bottle turned out.
The sandblaster at school is out of sand and since it's so close to the end of semester they are holding off until next year to buy more sand. (bummer, but I'll live
I have every intention to sand blast these bottles like my plan in the previous posts below but until then... vinyl stickers it is.

Who in your life needs a CaringBridge


I was having a rough day today until I received an e-mail from my old pod mate at CaringBridge that absolutely turned my frown upside down! 

Caryn informed me that 9,883 CaringBridge users are currently using the themes I designed this summer.
THAT'S ALMOST 10,000 people!!! 

I miss so many things about CaringBridge - the people, the story behind it, helping families, friends and strangers, the designing, the food :)  I miss working for a place where everyone had a heart and cared.

CaringBridge has been in my life since high school when two classmates had pages. I cannot image going through a difficult health crisis without CaringBridge.

Which brings me to my next point: Who in your life needs a CaringBridge?
If you don't already know, CaringBridge is a website that helps keep loved ones informed during difficult times. In return, family and friends give patients and caregivers support through guestbook messages. It reduces time and emotional energy spent on repeated phone calls and emails and keeps everyone informed with the same, accurate information. www.caringbridge.org
