How to Find Inspiration for Your Custom Designed Clothes
August 28, 2017 Venoma 1 Comments
As a designer, you have probably experienced the frustration
of feeling like you have literally run out of ideas…
Similar to writer’s block, you hit a creative block and feel
as though your career is over.
You simply cannot come up with anything else that you think
will just “wow” the fashion gurus.
But, before you throw in your drawing book and colored
pencils, consider where you are looking for inspiration…
Sometimes, all it takes to get past that creative block is
to look for inspiration in some of the most unsuspecting places and let the
ideas come to you.
So, grab those personalized labels from
Wunderlabel and get back to the drawing board.
How do you find that inspiration, though?
Obviously, the major question is where do you go for
inspiration…
With clothes everywhere, how do you still look around and
create something that is your own?
Start by examining the current fashion industry.
Begin by taking a look at your surroundings and ask yourself
a few questions…
Which way is the industry going?
What is it missing?
How could my designs make it better?
How could I improve what is already out there?
Like several other industries, the
fashion industry is always changing. Therefore, it is vital to your designs
that you stay on top of the current market and the future of the market. Clever
media marketing campaigns and quirky designs generate a major buzz in the
fashion industry.
Determine who you are designing for.
One of the biggest mistakes designers make is picturing
their clothing is a necessity for the entire world…
It would be great if everyone in the world just
adored your designs but that just is not plausible.
Narrow it down and determine the specific market that you
are going to design for – kids, adults, babies, elderly.
Then, you can dedicate some time to considering exactly what
will make that specific market happy. Try talking to people in that demographic
and grab their ideas, too – you never know, something they say might trigger
your great idea for “the next big thing.”
Gather images to put your vision on paper.
This step comes in to play nicely when you are looking at
the current trends – it helps to see plenty of visuals of what is already out
there.
This will help you answer those questions from earlier such
as “What is missing?”.
Once you have gathered images that are of interest, make a
mood board. You can separate the pictures based on mood, which can eventually
help you develop the different aspects of your collection.
Final Thoughts
At this point, you have given yourself the perfect
atmosphere to develop new and creative ideas. Now, it is time to pull out the
sketch pad…
Just go with it. Just start drawing. If you have to start
over a few times, it is okay – that is what an eraser is for.
Just remember to relax – creative juices don’t flow like the
Nile River in the midst of stress.
Now, grab a cup of coffee – or whatever your comfort drink
is – and let your creative juices flow.

5 Tips to selecting the best garment steamer for your business
August 23, 2017 Venoma 1 Comments
If you are looking for a garment steamer for heavy duty use in your business, then you surely are lucky today. With this article, you will surely be able to find and buy the best garment steamer for your business. With many best clothing steamers to choose from, here are 5 tips to selecting the garment steamer that would be perfect for your business;
1. Size of water tank
When selecting the garment steamer for your business, the very first thing that you have to consider is the water reservoir. Garment steamers can only do their magic with the help of water from its tank, thus, it would be best to buy a garment steamer that can hold a considerable amount of water in its tank. As a benchmark, a 1-liter capacity can usually steam continuously for about half an hour on regular fabric. However, If you are going to use the garment steamer for heavier fabrics such as draperies, denim and bed sheets, then a 1-liter capacity will only last for about 15 minutes. Therefore, consider buying garment steamers that can hold up to 5 liters of water in their tanks so that you can continuously steam any type of fabric.
2. Portability
A lot of people tend to forget about the mobility of the heavy duty garment steamer when doing their shopping. They only realize the hassle of moving the garment steamer once they encounter a situation requiring the moving of the garment steamer. If you don’t want to suffer from moving your garment steamer from place to place and risking damage to the garment steamer then you should definitely add the mobility or portability of the appliance on your checklist. There are heavy duty garment steamers that have wheels on them, making them very easy to move and store after use. Furthermore, there are also garment steamers that can be disassembled so that they will be more compact once you store them.
3. Power
Power is also a main issue for garment steamers, for business and professional use, garment steamers should have considerable power in order to perform faster and efficiently. You might be thinking of getting a garment steamer with a fair amount of power as more watts means more electricity consumed making your electric bill higher. While this is undoubtedly true, if you continuously use an underpowered garment steamer for your business, then it will most likely be broken sooner than you thought. Therefore, it is more economical on buying a garment steamer with more power rather than trying to save by buying an underpowered steamer. For reference, a garment steamer with 1500 watts can usually get the job done for businesses and professional use.
4. Reach and other Features
There are many garment steamers in the market filled with various features. Try to find the one that has the most useful features like an extended cord so that you can reach every part of the fabric that you are steaming. Other useful features include; automatic shut-down, built-in hangers, clips for making pleats, and LED notification settings.
5. Check reviews
Last and most important in our tips for selecting the best garment steamer is to check reviews about the garment steamer that you are trying to buy. It wouldn’t take much of your time, but the potential benefits you can have are massive and is definitely worth it. Checking reviews online will allow you to learn more about the product from real-life experiences from other users. So before you buy, do a quick background check on the product.

Your Complete Guide to Metals for Engagement Rings
August 17, 2017 Venoma 0 Comments

Are you
getting ready to propose to your girlfriend? When selecting an engagement ring,
picking a precious metal is often a personal decision. As you begin, consider her taste and style.
Does she prefer classic gold or does she prefer a white-silver colour, more
like white gold or platinum? Does she have any metal allergies because if she
does, you’ll need to consider metal purity when selecting one. This guide will help you to compare the most popular precious metals used in
engagement rings so see which one best fits her lifestyle.
·
Platinum-
Platinum is a rare, precious white metal that
is 95 % pure. This makes platinum a popular choice for brides-to-be with skin
allergies since this metal is hypoallergenic.
In addition, platinum is known for its durability which means your centre
diamond will be protected. Even if your
ring gets scratched, platinum bands don’t use much metal and often develop a
satin finish over the years.
·
Palladium-
Palladium is also a rare, silvery, white metal,
created with 95% purity. It’s resistant to damage and scratches like platinum,
and it is actually 12 % harder than platinum.
While you can purchase a palladium band, more jewellery designers are
using palladium as one of their natural alloys in white gold.
·
Yellow Gold-
Gold is still a traditional option. However,
you can’t use 24 carat gold because when it’s 100 % pure, it’s too soft to work
with for jewellery. Typically, most
rings are made out of 18K gold, which is 75% pure gold and 25 % alloys. Gold is more affordable than platinum, and it
doesn’t tarnish.
·
White
Gold-While some brides-to-be still prefer
traditional gold, others prefer white gold, which is gold dipped in rhodium for
a silvery finish. However, if you choose white gold, you will have to get your
ring re-dipped at least once a year.
·
Rose
Gold- Rose gold is pink-tinted gold, which has been
combined with copper alloys. The more copper that is in it, the rosier the gold
looks. This means it doesn’t work for those with sensitive skin. However, for
many others, rose gold has become very trendy, especially in combining metals
as the warmer tone looks flattering on most skin tones.
Other Tips for Selecting the
Right Precious Metal
Think
long-term. She’ll hopefully be wearing this ring for many years to come. While
you certainly want to keep trends in mind, sometimes choosing a timeless and
elegant look is best. Check
the Ringleaders engagement rings in Brisbane to see
a variety of elegant rings.
Consider
mixing metals. Pairing yellow good and
white gold together gives an extra stunning elegance to an engagement ring.
Contemplate
the maintenance of each precious metal. White gold needs to be re-dipped and
re-plated at least a few times each year. Yellow gold and platinum rings are
easier to care for, however, platinum rings need to be professionally cleaned
at least annually.
4 Tips to making your future husband’s wedding ring unique
August 17, 2017 Venoma 0 Comments
You might be thinking of surprising your future husband with a ring that you chose specifically for him. But you know that his taste is not typical. You want something unique and different for your husband but you’re not sure just what to get him.
Worry not, as there are actually so many options for you. Years ago, your options for unique wedding rings might not have been so many, but more and more manufacturers and jewelers have realized there is a need for a more different style other than the usual.
For those who are looking for a not so typical ring for their future spouses, here are some tips that you should follow to be able to buy something that is perfect for your husband-to-be.
1. Match the design with his likes or hobbies – why not look for a design that incorporates some of his favorite things? Does he like sports? Did you know that you can find wedding bands that have football or basketball designs? If he is more the rugged type, there are also rings that look like tree barks, but if that is too informal for you, you can just look for one that has a more distressed texture than the usual ring.
2. Engrave a meaningful message inside the wedding band – wedding rings are very personal and you can make it even more personal by engraving a personal and loving message inside the ring. What makes this unique is that you know that no one else in the world will have the same ring as the message is specifically for him and no one else. You can even turn it into a secret message that only he would understand. Think of it as a secret language between the two of you.
3. Look for a combination of unique materials - wedding rings do not just have to be made of platinum or gold anymore. There are rings that combine materials that you would not think would look classy but manage to do so. There are rings made from cobalt and wood, and even gold and silver combined with leather. If your husband is not a fan of the classic rings, go for one that combines silver, copper, and brass. They are unique enough but still have an air of elegance which would make it perfect as a wedding band. To get an idea of what your future spouse might like, check out his present collection of jewelry so you’ll know just what he likes to buy.
4. Go for a different color – most wedding rings are either gold or platinum, but if your man does not really like those colors, why not go for a different color? You may opt for brass rings if you want. But if your husband is not a fan of shiny jewelry, you can go for black. It might not seem like the first choice, but they are proving to rise more in popularity. Here are some samples of black stainless steel rings for men. You can check them out and see for yourself if they are perfect for your man.
