Bespoke Knitted Socks

Completed: 06.12.23

Straight from last years collection, here we have the Telstra Xmas edition bespoke socks! The socks themselves we designed with longer term wear in mind so just went with Telstra' famous greens with white, but our studio then put together the wrap and individual boxes with xmas branding and a little Telstra twist, all combining to a memorable Christmas gift!

For this project we used our Bespoke Knitted Socks (MP20311).

Highland Bone China Mug

Completed: 02.12.23

This full colour highland bone china mug we made for Canal & River Trust a while back still brings big smiles and happy memories for sure! We popped to together their little character around the mug for full branding potential, whilst their slogan was printed just inside the inner rim for next level exposure.

For this project we used our Highland Bone China Mug (MP15629).

Bespoke Hardback Notebook A5

Completed: 22.11.23

A magnificent set of notebooks! Bespoke in every way, we love how the design flows from front to back. The balance between the solid structure and the soft playful branding really gives it that stunning retail quality.

For this project we used our Bespoke Hardback Notebook A5 (MP17409).

Neoprene Wine Cooler

Completed: 21.11.23

We just love how this stock coloured cooler tied in with GB Motorhome Tours desired colours! On this occasion we printed their artwork to the front face, with a crisp feeling print in harmony versus the plush neoprene material.

For this project we used our Neoprene Wine Cooler (MP17318).

15cm Bambury Bear with T-Shirt

Completed: 07.11.23

This cute little bear will be the envy of both adults and children alike! The soft brown fur helps give the black t-shirt a clean level of dominance, which in turn helps the logo pop to ensure huge bundles of exposure.

For this project we used our 20cm Bambury Bear with T-Shirt (MP20039).

Large Tankard

Completed: 02.11.23

This is a classic example of why we always recommend engraving onto glass. The branding looks sophisticated and understated, whilst branding simply bounces when a beverage is added to the glass!

For this project we used our Large Tankard (MP10473).

A6 Small Croft Notebook

Completed: 30.10.23

These A6 notebooks make be small but boy have HX made sure they are mighty! Opting for the royal blue to tie-in with their dominant brand colour they opted for their icon screen printed in white, with the blue showing through to reduce cost and make them look even more on brand!

For this project we used our A6 Small Croft Notebook (MP18086).

Chilly's Bottle

Completed: 29.10.23

We've put these beauties together to give you a flavour of what our custom Chlily's Bottles are all about. With a range of colour choices each is provided in a retail quality Chilly's tube, with the icon engraved to the opposite side of the artwork such as the Canal & River Trust edition here, which they decided to run up the bottle to make maximum use of the branding area.

For this project we used our Chilly's Bottle (MP21131).

Chilly's Coffee Cup: Series II

Completed: 27.10.23

With the engraving based to the opposite of the Chilly's logo on the reverse, these Chilly's coffee cups wouldn't be out of place in any retail setting. The matte green gives the super detailed branding a gorgeous level of hierarchy whilst remaining well fitted to the cups themselves.

For this project we used our Chilly's Coffee Cup: Series II (MP22743).

A6 Postcard

Completed: 26.10.23

HSBC are back with another order for some A6 Postcards, and they just get better and better! As per their last few orders they opted for a message one side with a full colour crisp and edited photo to the glossed side for a more premium outlook.

For this project we used our A6 Postcard (MP22021).

Sandfield Mug

Completed: 21.10.23

The University of Leicester opted for a black base mug the a 2 colour print so mix their mug options whilst keeping all of their brand colour tied up! The shimmer of the black gives it a real elegance, whilst the distinctive red & white branding gives it stunning definition.

For this project we used our Sandfield Mug (MP13985).

Bum/Belt Bag

Completed: 15.10.23

This Bum Bag is a prime example of how branding can elevate a product. The premium vibrant white embroidery fits right at home on the deep black fabric, with the icon showing through for next level personalisation.

For this project we used our Bum/Belt Bag (MP22324).

Screen Cloth Mousemat

Completed: 13.10.23

This soft mouse mat is so engaging! The mats on this occasion were dye sublimated in full colour, making the most of the generous print area. We were so please with the quality of the print and they are bound to brighten up any desk!

For this project we used our Screen Cloth Mousemat (MP16229).

Hot Chocolate & Marshmallow Info Card

Completed: 12.10.23

Coor' blimey! What a striking promo piece! Our studio popped together this nifty little design using the brand guidelines which gives it superior hierarchy compared to the rest of the product!

For this project we used our Hot Chocolate & Marshmallow Info Card (MP22475).

Real Wood Column Award

Completed: 07.10.23

This sample we produced for the UoL was so good that they went to order! Using our Account Manager Tom as an example name we engraved 2 sides of the wood column which came out with a gorgeous dark-burnt effect with stunning level of detail which is even more evident when analysing the crest.

For this project we used our Real Wood Column Award (MP21405).
