What’s in your event? If you’re like me, it’s your heart and soul. Whatever the reason for your gathering–conviviality, charity, social issues–you care deeply about the group that is to gather. You want everyone to feel comfortable. You want everyone to have as much fun as they can, or to be as productive as possible. [...]

Consider the staple: a lowly scrap of metal with two right angles built into it. Just a piece of stiff wire, waiting to be folded around a stack of paper. In the Middle Ages, the staple had slightly different shape–more like a U–and you had to pound it in by hand. The modern age brought [...]

It’s never a rip-off!Most good event tickets come with a perforated ticket stub, which detaches easily to keep patrons moving through the door. Your ticket taker must stay sharp on her feet. There may be a crowd of eager folks queued up for entry at the door of the theatre or disco. They want to [...]

How about youth sport?If we want to encourage children to maintain active lifestyles whilst enjoying fresh air, healthy camaraderie, and friendly competition, what can we do to encourage them? Perhaps it’s only a small step, but printing tickets for children’s sport events in the UK may be a step in the right direction. For athletic [...]

We’re off! Have you plans for the biggest party of the year? We have! And we’ve got the tickets to speak to it.

But what if you’re worried about everyone else? Printing your own tickets gives you a basic sense of security. Even stock [...]

Here’s how we do it. Printing our own event tickets: it works for community theatre; it works for large a cappella choirs; it works for your child’s grade three Christmas pageant. Let’s say my mate’s band booked a swank New Year’s gig in Bristol and it’s meant to be a posh, plummy, and exclusive affair. [...]

For some reason, I can’t stop thinking about scrap booking. I’m not the kind of person who buys little themed cardboard cutouts, word bubble stickers, and star-shaped hole-punchers to adorn my holiday snaps. I do arrange photographs in acid-free archival albums, though, and I save little mementos to adorn the pictures. Event programs, ticket stubs, [...]

The Victorians kept scrapbooks, the concept of colour printing being something of a novelty in their greyer world. The beautiful images we take for granted today, for instance, in print advertisements, were once modern marvels to be cherished, collected, and admired. Can we rekindle this love of fine design and learn to see with fresh [...]

When we were little, we weren’t allowed a lot of television (when we were little, there wasn’t all that much of interest to children on the telly, but that’s another story) and we had to entertain ourselves. We didn’t need the television anyway. On long summer days, we put on our own plays. We wrote [...]
