Ok shoppers i have a mission request if you are up to it that is?
I have a friend who as just started the process in opening her own small business selling clothing along side small household items (paintings/table lamps mirrors etc).
She as been to the printers today to get some quotes for large scale printing for an over the shop sign, this is where you guys come in

She cannot think of an apt name for the shop, she wants something new and catchy, not the normal names like - threads/cut above you get the idea.

I have said that i would ask here and see if we have anyone willing to help a new business starter out.
She's not after a full blown file with all the bells and whistles just the ideas in graphic form pease.

P.S. remember this is in sunny oz (no roos or boomerangs either):mrgreen:

I suggest she look around her area, where the shop is. any landmarks she can scramble some letters and come up with a name? Not much to go on not knowing the area if you know what I mean

 

[DannyOlivier]

Some sort of Pun shop name perhaps?

 

[IamSam]

Also, is the clothing line, new items or used and does she cater to a certain age or gender group?

So taking a hint from chris, I made a couple signs. Of course, I need Hoogle to modernize as it appears my design ideas are languishing in the 90s! LMAO, WYSIWYG.

This is my friends mail reply:

Ok, all a bit hush ATM, but I am going all Hollywood, old style, dramatic, decadent, Bette Davis, the older stars, so thinking of an Art Deco logo
was initially thinking of a glam silhouette of a black gown, with big hat and fluffy little dog ....
The name of the shop will be ( big secret ) Holly & Milly.
Colour scheme black and cream, cream walls, but a black wall at the rear, black voile curtains to the two front side windows, black velvet to the changing room.

As you can no doubt see shes excited lol.
