Lampe Creative Impressions Summer 2021... Fun, functional, and something for everyone

When doing a design for Lampe Creative Impressions, we always accommodate to what the viewing audience is looking for, when buying our products. We want them to be fun to see, functional to use in their everyday life, and make sure that there is something for everyone. 


The latest thing that we have been doing is giving away our summer-themed water bottles to anyone who has both of their Covid-19 Shots. It's our way to be a thank you for getting your Covid-19 Shots. 





Last Summer we designed them, to accommodate what people might do during summer vacation. It could be swimming at the beach or in a pool, it could be walking on hiking trails, or it could be camping at a campground or camp resort-like my family and I do. We want to keep them simple yet very functional for people to use every day.


The newest design for 2020 was our soy dot votive candle, and it is something that is very unique and pretty cool to watch while burning it. 


 


It is something my mom had thought of, because if you can make a candle with soy dots in a regular-sized container  like this one: 



We can work with creating a little narrower-type candle such as a soy dot votive container candle. 

My mom had come up with creating this, I helped her with the scents to keep them something that people would want to use all year around. 


Our Latest sales we have been doing on Facebook have been: 

1) Shop for Mom: Looking to find that one-of-a-kind gift for mom for Mother's Day, come on by and shop with Lampe Creative Impressions to find that great gift for mom, grandma, or whoever for mother's day.

3) 18in Doll Fashion Show and Sale with Lampe Creative Impressions: Lights,  Camera, time for Fantasy Fashions with Lampe Creative Impressions for your 18in dolls.

2) It's time for some Beach Blanket Bingo during our Beach Sale this Summer. We will be providing Bingo Cards with the products we will be featuring. Whoever gets 2 Bingo lines on their card, will get a free item of choice with their order. 


More still to come, and we can't wait for you to come by to see all we have to offer for this summer. We hope we can make Lampe Creative Impressions your go-to for Home Decor for your house or special occasion and gifts for any occasion.

Summer colors, Fun in the sun , and How to put them together

Yesterday, I completed 17 beach balls, and 9 sand pales/ice buckets. This has started a complete line of products for summer that the public audience/buyers will be able to enjoy every summer. 


Starting this next week, we will be planning out our new 18-inch doll outfits for summer clothing such as swimsuits and mermaid outfits. How I came up with this idea in particular, because of the 16 years Lampe Creative Impressions has been open, and heading to craft shows as a kid it inspired me to start my own doll outfit designs so that other young girls can use their own imagination as well.

Today on Facebook, I posted products in our Lampe Creative Impressions Home Decor and Gift Shop, in which people can use for Summer. Some of the items included :



Digital Designed Drinking Glasses 

 
                                              Dog Frisbees for Playing Outside


                                                       And our Summer themed Digital Prints 


All of these items are summer-inspired and will be a great element to add to your summer celebrations.  Summer has many opportunities for doing many different designs that people can see how effectively they use to make their summer a special one. 

                                   Stay Tune for the next blog.

Making an Outdoor Living Space Functional, Fun, and Full of Summer Colors.

Designing living spaces have always been a dream of mine with being both a Graphic Designer and a Candle and Soap Creator. Summer always makes me think of how an outdoor living space fun, functional, and eye-catching for people. 


Starting within these next few weeks we will be posting before and afters of what products we are creating for our outdoor living area designs. We want to have our viewers be able to see our products in a certain away that will be functional for them to use this summer. 

An example: 


Our Sand Pales, besides them being used at the beach to collect seashells, making sandcastles, holding water for water fights, they can be used for many of more functional uses.  These Sand Pales could be used for placing ice in them to keep like water bottles and soft drinks cold while outside. They also can be used to store pet toys that they play with outside. 






These are the patterns that are we are planning to use for our outdoor dining areas. They say summer in so many ways. These designs in particular remind me of everything for summer. I mean looking up at the stars at night in the summer, eating watermelon on a hot summer day, camping trips, and celebrating the 4th of July. 

Once we have everything creating, we will be posting photos of before and after of the outdoor designs will look like so it gives everyone an idea for what they can order from Lampe Creative Impressions this Summer. 

Stay Tuned for our next blog.

18 Summer Splash Kitchen Dish Towels.... What Next? Water Bottles, Sand Pales, Drinking Glasses, etc.

Today, I completed all 18 Dish Towels for our Summer Line of Design Products. With the Towels being both Tye-Dyed and now Digital Designed makes this line one of a kind that I think all the members of our shop will be excited to add these to their kitchens this Summer. 


The next design area this week will be either Water Bottles, Sand Pales, Drinking Glasses, or even Beach Balls. 

Being a Graphic Designer means being able to show everything of the different designs so that the public viewing will be able to choose the design that they particularly want to try from our business. 


Something new I want to try in photographing our products for summer would be taking the products and putting them next to nature. It will show our products that we design in different lighting. It will give people a chance to view our hand-designed products in a natural setting that will give the products a summer touch to them. 

           Stay tuned for our next blog, we will be featuring some pictures of the products we are working on for summer.

Summer... New Season, New Products, New Adventures

Summer had come before we even knew it for Lampe Creative Impressions with our Products. The Newest Design of our Tye-Dye Summer Dish Towels. 




We are working on coming up with the Name for our Dish Towels. So far, the Names we have come up for the Summer Dish Towels are Color Splash Dish Towels, Summer Splash Dish Towels, Tye-Dye Dish Towels, and Colors of Summer Dish Towels. We are waiting to hear what our viewers vote on for the name of the dish towels. 


We are adding this Summer for new Digital Designs will include the following: 

Tye-Dye Drawstring Bag 



Beach Balls 



Cutting Boards 


Water Bottles 



Inner Tubes 





Tumblers 



Sand Pales 


Drinking Glasses 


Bottle Lights


So much new for Design that we are developing that will help the season of summer with the many color variations we use. 


New Product for Lampe Creative Impressions also this Summer is Potpourri. My Mom had gotten this idea in a few ways from thinking of it. One way was going to Dubuque, IA last August when my mom and dad were celebrating their 28th Wedding Anniversary. She was able to understand how to make potpourri through a store she went too. The other way was we wanted to add a new type of air freshener to our product list and so something like potpourri is right on our list to try out. 

Another New Product that will be happening will be Aroma Beads. It is another type of air freshener that works for your house as well besides, reed diffusers, wax cubes and so much more. 

Stay tuned for the next blog we will be posting soon.

Making a New Line of 18in Doll Outfits for Lampe Creative Impressions

These past few years, I have been collecting 18in Dolls, because of one of the classes that I took while I was attending Herzing University for my Graphic Design Degree. I remember it was my Corporate Campaign. The course that I had made in my 2nd to last term in the Spring of 2018. My Final Project was dealing with a Magazine layout for the Classes final, in which my teacher had told us we could use any company out there to make a magazine layout. I chose to do my design for the Magazine to be on the American Girl Doll Company because it was a company that I was very familiar with because I have grown up with dolls, clothing, and other items from that company. 

 After I graduated 2 years ago and over the past year, I had made my own Digital Designed American Girl Doll Outfit Designs. Here is so far what I have created within my digital designs :









I am happy with the designs that I have established so far within this past year. My newest area of design for the Summer of 2020 is my own 18in Doll outfits. I am going to start off with the Summer Swimwear line for 18in Dolls.

Here are some examples of what my Summer line will consist of:




I can't wait to start the new designs for this summer line. I know a lot of younger girls and even 18in doll collector will be excited to try out from Lampe Creative Impressions.

Taking your Inside Dining Room Outside and Creating a New Living Space

The newest idea I have been thinking about lately is Summer Tablescaping, Candle Centerpieces, and how to make your Outdoor Living Space something that you will be able to enjoy a day to day bases. 

When thinking of summer, I mostly think of Celebrating the 4th of July, Eating Watermelon on a Hot Summer Day, Going Camping, Taking Trips to the Beach or someplace Tropical,  and Star Gazing on Warm Summer Nights. 


The themes we have in the works are July 4th Firecrackers, One in a Watermelon Summer, Campers Retreat, Backyard Beach BBQ, and Summer Starry Night. How we came up with these themes by brainstorming things that are associated with Summertime. 

Here are the Fabric Selections we have made for our Themes: 





All of these fabrics have that pop of color that says summer when you first see it. 

Once you see the completed design for all of these it will help you get an idea of what Lampe Creative Impressions can for your Backyard Dining Venue this Summer.
