Are you tasked with designing packaging and labeling of gift baskets? This can seem like a daunting task at first glance, but the truth is that it easy and fun. Gift baskets are meant to show appreciation to the people meant to receive the pack and for that reason, one has to put in all they have to ensure the packaging is done right. If you are preparing the gift baskets containing same items but meant for different people, the best way to make each of the baskets feel personal is by including customized decorative labels. Looking to create the perfect decorative labels? The following tips will help you to design labels that will turn your gifts baskets into marvels.
Origami Styles
Before designing customized decorative labels for each gift basket, you need to understand the tastes and styles of your guests. If you know some of your guests are “colorful”, package your gift basket in a simple way but so pretty it will take their breath away. For decorative labels, use foil papers to print your labels. If you are looking to design simple decorative labels without too much hype, you can choose to use matte white papers which are simple yet elegant. How you well you present your gift baskets will depend on the label material you choose for your decorative labels.
Make Your Label Design Simple
A label in a gift basket is meant to include the name of the person receiving the gift and also a few words to show appreciation. Try not to overcrowd the decorative label with too much text. Use a few words to show your guest that you appreciate them and that your continual acquaintance is important to you. You can also add simple forms of artwork like balloons or animations if you are planning a party.
Use Color
Color has been known to evoke powerful emotions in people. Use color to bring your decorative labels to life. If you have a theme for your party or event, you can incorporate these colors in your label designs to match with the gift baskets. It also helps to math colors with the personalities of your guests to make the gifts appear and feel more personal. To print full color labels, you are recommended to use a digital label printer. Digital label printers bring out colors perfectly and if you have images in your label design, they will be printed in high resolution.
Pick A Font
When designing a decorative label, you need to use typography that will match your event. The type of font you choose will depend on a few factors for example, the profession of your guests, their age and the event being celebrated. If you are inviting guests who are well beyond their 40’s, you want to pick a font that is not too formal yet one that is not too hyped either. For a younger generation, choose a font like comic sans which is both fun and laid back.
If you are an events planner, the best and cost effective way to print customized decorative labels is to invest in a digital label printer. This printer will allow you to print as many labels you want and also allow you to easily customize your labels when the need arises.
