A week in my life as an aspiring small business

This week has definitely been a "behind-the-scenes" week. Exploring ideas, purchasing tools and preparing designs.

Branding moodboards

I've produced some moodboards for our logo which you can see over on our Instagram post here.

I'd like to purchase an iPad and prepare a proper workstation to enable me to do clean graphics but I need to create a proper work station first.

Website Design

I'm also doing research and wireframes for how I want the final website to look, this is so I can start developing the "final design" for the website - which I'm really looking forward to.

Product Research

Purchased some tools and books to research and get into creating some bits to get started.
