First Blog Entry...PRESSURE

Been thinking about a few ideas.
* Making note books
* Making a series of collectables, stickers or badges
* Novelty things like decorated lampshades
* "Make your own sets"...packs containing things to make something
* Making cards, maybe christmas cards

I really like how crafty this project could be, makign things for commercial purpose is quite exciting, its good to know that people are going to be interested in pruchasing something which you design. Its like a test to see how creative you can be ,,,yet still keep it practical and usuable for the general public.
Been on the drawing and image making website and found the FA2004 bank of good websites and found some really great stuff. Particularly like this work http://www.mdd.dk/dd_designers_projects.asp?PK_project=927&PK_profile=18143
It really contemporary and you could really imagine yourself buying it yet its still Art with purpose.
So yeah, going to continue with the research and try to think outside the box a little, before i get too excited and make something completly obvious.
Toodle oooo
