Branding ideas

 

I've been thinking about branding ideas and came up with this sketch, playing around with my initials to create a logo.  It needs some work and some colour adding, but these are my initial ideas for a logo.

This week my tutor helped me to develop my logo on photoshop.  I'm not sure about the name or colour and will work on them, but like the design.  The shape represents my initials RJM.

I also worked on my Instagram account, updating things and making it into a professional account.

Having looked through several craft journals and visiting a jewellers exhibition at Salts mill in Saltaire, I realise that most jewellers just call themselves by their name.  As you can see from the above sketch my initial thoughts were to call my business RJM jewellery and then I thought I'd call it Bella (after my mum and because I love beauty).  However after this research I have decided to call it Rebecca Mihill jewellery.  I have booked a session with a technical expert (Lisa) in photoshop next week and will play around with the colour and change the design slightly.  See sketch ideas below:

My husband made a comment about my logo design looking phallic! Ahhh, now I feel compelled to change it.  Working with the letters RM I came up with the following:


Lisa had to rearrange to next week, so I will play around with the design until I see her.  The talk I attended last week from the design consultancy Pentagram has been an influence on the design development of my logo.  I've reflected on the design process example Johannes (a partner in the company) showed us.




With Lisa's help here's the version I'm going to keep and use on all my branding for the time being.
