Need Promo Items? Gotcha Covered!

Joe's Family Car Care recently received some really great-looking carabiners and magnet clips, and I thought now might be a great time to go into promotional items a little bit. Though we would love to be able to handle every job in-house, there are some jobs where we wouldn't be able to offer our customers the best prices. Fortunately, we have a great relationship with one of our vendors where they can offer you some great promotional items for a very reasonable price. They can print your company logo, contact information, and other important details you want promoted on a huge range of items, including pens, reusable bags, flash drives, mugs, lighters, shot glasses, flash drives--practically anything you can think of! We love being able to fulfill whatever promotional need you have, so stop on by or give us a call at 603-843-8965, and we'd love to help you out! You can also check out some featured products on our website; just click on one of the pictures and it will take you to the vendor's site where you can see all the prices up front. Check it out!

More Than Just Information

One of the wonderful things about signs is the variety of uses and information they can convey. To use some examples of recent projects we've worked on, we did a series of signs for Toole Home Improvements and a series of signs for Eastman that do entirely different things. The signs we made for Toole are fairly informational: they have the logo with the name of the company, the service provided (General Contractor), the phone number, and the location, all on a coraplast sign. This is simple and great because it offers people exactly what they need to know if they need a general contractor; too much information or lots of pictures would be distracting. Meanwhile, the Eastman signs are displayed on Komatex, don't feature very much text at all, instead focusing on the large pictures. These signs are great for display either inside or outside for an entirely different purpose: communicating visually the activities you can enjoy at Eastman. We can make any of these types of signs, and a whole lot more, so we can make sure whatever message you want to convey gets sent!

The Tricky Business of Hat Embroidery

So this time, I thought it might be fun to do a little behind-the-scenes look at how we embroider hats like the ones we just put out for S Brush. Unlike polos or tees which stitch flat, hats require a special mechanism to attach to our embroidery machine, as the machine is required to stitch on a curved surface. Setting the hats up for stitching (known as "hooping") also requires a different process than for shirts. Instead of cinching a specific area of the hat to be stitched onto, the whole hat must lock into place in the hoop and the back of the hat must be pinned back to avoid too much movement of the fabric as the hat rotates on the machine. This makes embroidering on unstructured hats especially difficult! Fortunately, we're currently looking into a newer hooping system to make this process far more efficient and improve upon one of our many services!

New T-Shirt Line Now Available

This has been in the works for a few weeks now, but we've finally unveiled a new page on our website! We have worked with Lori King for a while and our continued collaborations have resulted in a lot of different designs for her new product line, Herman Tease. All of these tees are now available for viewing on our site. One design pays tribute to those fighting or who have fought cancer, and proceeds of this shirt are donated to the Norris Cotton Cancer Center at Dartmouth-Hitchcock. We do stress that some of the other designs feature profanity and other adult content, so just be warned if that type of humor is not something you enjoy. Check it out:
