Custom Garter Designed for Engage! Conference

ok, so this is my last post about engage!09 :: encore…for now! (check out here where i live blogged engage!)  this one is just too fun not to share. i was thinking about a good thank you gift for the event hosts (the ladies of engaging concepts) and i settled on a custom designed, hand-embroidered wedding garter with "the encore" logo…

here is the original logo…

i didn't think i could fit it all on such a small space, so i went with "the encore." it is hand embroidered in poppy, one of engaging concepts' signature colors (cement being the other color). the background is silver satin with a white grosgrain stripe (1.5 inches wide).

thank you gifts can be hard sometimes, especially when you really want to give something that shows your appreciation. i have my stock thank you gifts that i often give out, like a tin of the sandunes from hope, faith & gluttony 'cause they are amazing, but for this one, since it was such a big, business changing event for me, i went with something that was a little more personal and reflective of my company. you could say that i thanked them with my time and effort! kind of corny, but it works!

thanks again to all of the lovely ladies at engaging concepts who put on such an awesome event!
