✨6 years full-time today🥳

No fancy photoshoot, just a pic of regular ol me in the middle of the day, showing up for my clients and giving them my very best.

asked me what advice I’d give hitting this benchmark and I said “going all in on myself sooner.” Believing fully in myself and my ability to make my dreams happen. To discard the doubt and just jump in. This year is the one I’ve felt the most “ownership” over my business and not just like a passenger. I’m more clear headed in where I want to go and that’s an incredible feeling.

Beyond appreciative for each and every client, project, and connection I’ve made along the way. The trust you’ve given me, the time we’ve shared, working everyday to make each others dreams come true is A GIFT! If we’ve met, emailed, worked together or just existed in the same space - thank you for being on this journey with me ❤️

It’s officially October which means it’s pumpkin and pop-up season 🍂✨ In STL there are a plethora of them this weekend, so take advantage and head out for a lil treat and treasure hunting!

If you didn’t know, PDS started as a stationery biz and many-a-weekend were spent filling my suv to the absolute BRIM with totes and pop up tables. I have both fond and not-so-fond memories of these times… like completely smashing my finger between 2-50lb concrete weights. So much work goes into just appearing at one of these markets, let alone making “the things.” But my absolute favorite was seeing people come into my tent space and just find JOY in what I made. How cool it is that we can create ✨things✨that bring a spark to a person, make them feel seen, or think of someone they know in a fond or funny way. Such a gift to both give and receive!

Now I get to cheer from the sidelines and support in a different way - like designing these cozy candle labels for . If you head to a market this weekend, I hope you stumble across some treasures, meet new local makers, and see just how much heart goes into every small business dream. 💛

Ready to elevate your product packaging to custom printed pouches? 🎨✨
For sleek, professional pouches that stand out on the shelf, here are my top tips to ensure your packaging upgrade is a success:

🔍 Measure Up
Hit the store with a tape measure! Check out the shelf space where your product will live. Note dimensions, fill weights, and how competing packages look.

📏 Size Matters
Ask your printer about standard bag sizes—they often have samples you can test with your product. Sticking to standard sizes can save you money since the machines are prepped for these options or bulk-stock is already available.

🖨️ Always Get a Printed Proof
This is non-negotiable in my opinion! A physical proof lets you confirm colors, contrast, sizing of type/elements and overall design before committing to a bulk order. Trust me, everything looks great on screen but can sometimes disappoint in real life. Get that physical proof to avoid surprises when thousands of dollars are on the line.

💡 Understand the Printing Process
Ask your printer whether they use digital printing (similar to a high-end inkjet) or rotogravure (which uses separate plates for each color). For rotogravure, don’t forget to ask about plate and setup fees—these can be hefty and might not be included in the initial quote. Transparency is key!

💡 Quantity Breaks
Printers have price breaks at certain quantities that make the cost per piece less. Ordering higher quantities decreases the per piece price which in turn helps keep your sale price as low as possible while maximizing your profit.

🎨 Hire a Pro Designer
(Yes, this is a bit self-serving, but it’s crucial!) An experienced packaging designer will properly set up dielines, manage color layers, and navigate print specs to make sure your packaging is a shelf superstar. Some printers may offer design services, but results can vary so always request design samples to ensure quality and pricing estimate.

With the right approach, your packaging can go from functional to fabulous. Ready to stand out? Let’s make it happen! Click here and let’s jump on a chat https://www.praxisdesignstudio.com/booking/
