I found someone to do some sample embroidered tags for me. Unfortunately, since Im new at this and not very bright, i shoulve looked into exactly what I needed. I got the samples and they look okay. I mean, the buffalo looks good, but the material is a ribbon type of stuff which frankly isnt strong enough to hold thru multiple washes...and a few of the ribbons were really bunched up around the embroidery. Oh, well. the lady was fantastic-very nice, quick turnaround...AND, isnt charging me for the effort...even better. If I ever need embroidery work, she'll be the first I call.
So, what am I looking for then? Im glad you asked. Essentially Im looking for a stitched label. Not something I can get in Buffalo, so Im ordering overseas-yep-mainland china here I come. But for 1200 labels for 200 smackers, its a deal I wont need to make for awhile. Perhaps by that time Ill find someone in buffalo to produce the labels. Check them out if your in need: Lucky Label
If anyone knows of a place, Im all ears!
What else...
Im still searching for a reliable, efficient, quality screen printer in Buffalo, NY to screen my shirts. Fingers crossed, this isnt a major hurdle I have to get over. I also have to make a decision on artwork and color of shirts. I have a dozen designs ready, but only introducing 3 to start....
And oh, yeah, money is running out.
I have pictures to post too. Sorry Im in a rush.

Web Landing Page
Worked on the "Opening Soon" landing page for the website today. Thats it above. Nothing major, just wanted to give it a little Buffalo blue collar attitude. Ill also put a link on it for people to sign up for the mailing list. Never too early to get a customer list!I'm also working on t-shirt tags, Ill get some pricing for them this week. You can see the tags on the landing page-these will be placed at the bottom hem on front of the t-shirt. A nice branding effect I thought. I'll give props to Johnny Cupcakes on this idea. BTW, if I can model/promote my brand like his in the least, Ill be in great shape. What a great story.
