Most people don't think about logo shape until they're holding a shirt with text so small you need to stand two feet away to read it.

Wide horizontal logos are one of the most common artwork issues we run into. They look great on a business card but shrink way down when you size them for a left chest print.

We wrote up a quick guide on how logo shape affects placement, what actually works where, and how to catch it before your shirts go to print.

We had your shirt ready for pickup.. . but Karen had other plans. 😅

Becky says she’s told Karen before, no wearing costumer orders.

Gary says Finders Keepers and he wishes he had thought of it.

And I’m over here just trying to keep things under control.

We promise your order is safe.. probably 🤷‍♀️

Thank you Audrey Hoogerhyde for your continued support!

Ok.. Shop Update!

We made frisbees for the City of Belleview and the Graphicten staff had some thoughts…

Becky: 10/10 would throw
Gary: he tested them
Karen: does NOT want to be involved 😂

I’d call that a success!

If you need fun promo items like this, we’ve got you covered.

Ok.. shop update!

We just finished this banner for Standley Pest Control and I’m not gonna lie.. it turned out pretty awesome!

The Graphicten staff has reviewed the work:
Becky: 10/10
Gary: made sure there were no bugs 🐜
Karen: I mean.. it’s good. 🤷‍♀️

We’ll take that as a win.

If your business needs branding that stands out, we’ve got you covered.

We just wrapped up a banner and car magnets for WaterBoys Emergency Well Repair & Water Treatment and we love how these turned out!

There’s nothing better than helping a local business get their branding out into the world.

(And yes.. Becky approved ✔️)

If you’re ready to upgrade your branding, we’d love to help.

Well.. Becky said she needed help in the shop, she said she just couldn't do it by herself anymore!
So we hired Karen and Gary!

Meet the Graphicten/ Crafty Cristy Staff:

Karen is always ready to let us know when something isn’t quite right. Whether we asked her to or not.

Gary’s main responsibility appears to be standing next to the embroidery machine, looking important.

So far productivity hasn't improved… but morale is excellent!

If your trade show booth looks like everyone else's, people are going to walk right past it.

Fitted table cover. Matching staff shirts. A giveaway worth keeping. Those three things alone put you ahead of most booths in the room.

We just posted a full breakdown of what actually works, including a checklist you can run through before your next Ocala area event.

Setting up a trade show booth in Ocala or Marion County? Here is what actually gets people to stop, look, and remember you.
