For the billionth time, I’ll say it “How is it 2019?!” Like every year, there were ups and downs. All in all, I’m looking back on 2018 pretty fondly. (I mean, 2018 is the year we became pregnant with our sweet twins. Finally getting those interns I’ve been needing!)

2018 was a fun year for logos here in the studio. We worked with makers, small businesses, solopreneurs and nonprofits. One thing they all had in common - each of these folks is making the world a better and more hopeful place through their work. Dusty and I are beyond honored to be a part of their story. Here’s a look back at the logos we created in 2018:

ChatterBomb

ChatterBomb is a clothing company that celebrates encouragement and community. Jessica’s punchy shirts feature a message on the inside, close to the heart where it matters most. Her logo has a vintage flare and bold presence to match the brand’s personality.

Little Moon Rising

Becca is a childbirth educator and natural remedy maker. (Her Elderberry Syrup will banish any cough or cold.) She launched Little Moon Rising as a place where germs aren’t scary, women are empowered, and the food is good. Her logo was inspired by old time apothecaries and their imperfect, organic typefaces.

Chantel Adams

Chantel Adams helps inspired women follow their mission, not the madness. She creates content and products. (Her free guides are amazing!) Her logo is playful, grounded and feminine and aligns with her brand’s core values.

Susie Mann

Susie is a New York photographer. While she photographs a wide range of subjects, this logo was developed specifically for her family shoots. Her logo’s fun and lighthearted feel mirrors Susie’s magic ability to make anyone smile and feel at ease.

Broadview Brand Strategy

Bethany launched her consulting firm, Broadview to help small businesses come up with a marketing strategy that communicates with customers in a way that connects. (Psst, She does free consults!!) As small business owners, we’re often too focused on the details of our business to know how to communicate our story to customers. Her logo is a nod to that old saying “Can’t see the forest for the trees.”

The Busy Bead

Emma Kenney, a retired NICU nurse, created The Busy Bead out of her love for making and desire to share. She creates nature inspired jewelry with gems and stones designed to heal. Her logo is a cute and playful take on the name. (I have this bracelet and I wear it all the time!)

Miles for Major

Miles4Major is a non-profit organization that aims to raise awareness and financial support for families of hearing impaired children through family-centered outreach events such as the Annual Miles-4-Major 5K Race. Miles4Majors help families go one more mile. This logo is made to grow with the organization and fit as needed.
