Hello,

can you tell me what must be on the label, what size, maybe some special color?

Thanks for invitation

I have uploaded a file of our current label.


I do not like it so much as it doesn''t have consistency with our logo and branding. I am looking for something that feels more like an apothecary.

There are some notes in the file.

Thanks!

Hi,
Since we want our label to have a somewhat ancient/classical look, I am thinking about hand-drawing an ancient/medieval-ish label in calligraphy. Would you be interested in that?

Besides, I can have it up in about a day, but just wanted to ask as it would deviate from the requirements (at least for the fonts). By the way, interesting project!

I am quite open to suggestions and creativity!


The only font I am set on is the company name "Cottage Botanicals" which is the Foglihten No07 and the words "apothecary & herb farm" in Della Robbia BT. Hopefully you can work with this - I am quite in love with my logo fonts. Otherwise feel free to use other fonts and create away!

I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Cheers, 
Cottage Botanicals

Hello
Can you please elaborate about the label design of which product you want, as there are teas, tisanes, soaps and other products on your website,each requiring different label dimensions & styling etc. Iam confused since the old label provided by yourself is only for tea.
P.S. I really love the colors of your teas specially the lord strathcona grey-black tea with orange petals.
thank you

Hi Geet, and Thanks for the question!

As you saw, lots of products but the basic design would be the same for all of them. We decided to start with the teas/tisanes.

If you are successful we would work together for future product designs. I have four collections for which products fall under, so keep this in mind (it makes labelling slightly easier, just a matter of changing text). Please assume this project is a tea/tisane label and create a sample for our four collections: Heather, Highland, Moorland and Botanist (gardening and herbalist).

The old tea label I uploaded as a starting point for this design process -- but I don't like it. I do like the brewing instructions. The design I have requested should have text retained (no outlines) submitted in .ai format.

The size of the label is 3.25" x 7.75" for the biodegradable bag (a front and back) which I can also use on tins as a value added packaging. Please design for the 3.25" x 7.75" for now. My initial thoughts are for a vertical label, but horizontal would work as well. Your choice.

I look forward to seeing your designs and please email again if I missed something!

Cheers,
Alyson

Ps: We really love our tea as well :) Thank you!
