Gifts and business

[trystinn]

I received two boxes today, both from Ruth - an absolutely gorgeous mortar & pestle set, now residing on the kitchen Hestia shrine and a HUGE box of plastic jars to get my business going. Yeah, baby! Thank you, absolutely perfect in every way.

Now that I've got enough containers to get myself started, its time to trot out a few name ideas, each with a little descriptor of why I like it and possible deterrents. Comments practically begged for!

Triple Pillars - a Kabbalist reference to the Tree of Life, Con: two many l's and p's. Great logo potential, though.

Basset Boys - the stinky bassets that first got me interested in making incense to cover their own musky scent: while honest, it lacks romance. Logo potential is limited (but cute).

The Incense Cupboard - nice, tidy but lacks any true imagination as its a tad forgettable. Pros - It is what it says. Cons - Logo potential boring.

So, Flist, what's your thoughts?

Btw, would any of the amazing artists on my Flist be willing to help me create a logo? I've no artistic ability whatsoever, so I'm a bit desperate! I can't offer you any money, but can promise a nice box of incense as payment.

There was no pattern. Josh has a gorgeous celtic stag t-shirt, that he put on a light box and sort of traced out the outline on a piece of graph paper, then roughed out an embroidery pattern as he went.

Fricking gorgeous. He embroidered it on plain green fabric (not cross-stich fabric) over the course of a few nights. His first embroidery/cross-stich project.

I'm hoping he can make a doe, looking the opposite way for the other cabinet door. I'll post pics in a moment.
