Logo Design Project

This is what Merry Marketplace was looking for in their logo design

I need a logo design for a new holiday shopping event called Merry Marketplace, taking place this Dec 7. The design should target women ages 35-54. It should be horizontal so that we can use it for many print and media applications. I would like to see the name Merry Marketplace in a "merry" but not hard-to-read font. Can be whimsical or curly, but not linked in script. There should also be artwork that conveys a woman and maybe wrapped gifts, but no shopping bag (a local show that I directed at my kid's school had a graphic with a woman with a shopping bag, so I don't want to appear that we "copied" that one). It should be no more than a two or three color design, but we should be able to print in it black and white as well. I'm looking to turn this project around quickly! Thanks! Read more
