As a mom to a nine-month-old little girl, I’m a sucker for darling clothes! During a shopping trip yesterday afternoon I found this darling summer dress and fell in love with the design of it! I’m going to upload a photo of it to the creative brief for my blog. I hope it will help give my blog designers a little more direction on what my vision is for my blog, now that I’ve seen the magic they worked with my logo.

Now that I have my logo, I’m ready to make my next step: a website. I’m terrified! Right now, I’m pretty new to this whole blogging scene, and don’t know anything about managing a website. I shared my fears with a member of the Creative Services team at Logoworks to figure out my options. She was so great to work with and after explaining my business vision for Cherries Jubilee Creations, she suggested I get a custom designed blog instead of a website. Brilliant! After all, I really want to have a personal connection with my customers, be able to share my creative inspiration, and get feedback! In the beginning I started with a templated WordPress blog so I could have a journaling of my creative process, and figured it would be in-addition to my website…sometime down the road, but now I can use my blog as my website! That’s not as intimidating, plus I have lots of options for the customization of my very own blog! Logoworks has really made it easy to let me focus on how I want to look and I trust leaving it in their hands. 

Thanks for all your great feedback on my logo designs. Through this whole process I’m always open to suggestions, as I feel It’s always good to know what other people think. A logo is like a piece of art, where beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I loved the layout of #4 and the cherries in #1 and #3. I also decided that after seeing #3 that I like it with Cherries Jubilee being the main text and creations being smaller. My suggestions in my revisions were to change the text to more of a custom look and make the cherries look more “fun” and “artsy”. I also gave them some color direction. They really hit the mark. I love the final product. I am so excited to see it on my product packaging and on my (gulp!) website.

I received my logo designs back today from Logoworks by HP. I can’t believe how fast I was able to get them, especially when I think that less than a week ago I hadn’t even started this process and now I have 6 great designs to chose from.

Now, I want your feedback! I think several of these designs are going in the right direction, but they may need some tweaking. I want to know what you think: likes, dislikes, and any constructive criticism.

Every company needs its own identity. After a friend of mine got her logo (and LOVED it) through Logoworks by HP, I decided I’d give them a try. I’ve always been a control freak who figures that if I want it done right, I’ll have to do it myself. But with my long to-do list of everything I’m working on trying to keep my focus and vision for my new business in tact, I decided I needed some help. So, I visited www.logoworks.com, and started my new logo project. I just finished filling out the creative brief to outline my ideas and expectations of how I want to brand my business. Check back on Friday to see my logo designs.
