Just got the word I’ll be doing more retail packaging projects this summer! Excellent news. I’m always happy when I get to see the fruits of my labour out in the wild. Or, more aptly put, on store shelves. Which reminds me of a short story I’m going to share with you now.
A few years ago I had a massive project that came in that looked so good, and was destined to be in beer stores and LCBO’s all over the province, and I was so proud of it, and after we developed a proprietary bottle for their spirits line up, they took the project back to formula, and then shut it all down. I was bummed out. I had been telling people to look for this line of products coming to stores for a while, and then had to admit defeat. We’d have been first to market, but too late now. Just another entry in yet another bloated field of RTD’s.
So it’s Friday, apparently. I have work on my plate, and obligations to attend to over the weekend. Otherwise week 1 of summer holidays has been pretty smooth. Eight more to go! Woot-woot!
Grass is still green and growing. Bit of an anomaly around these parts for July. But I’ll take that rain if it means I don’t have to lug water around the farm. Yeah buddy!
