Activated Spaces' Pop-Up Shops are OPEN!


You are probably getting sick of seeing this same ol' same logo. Well today you are in luck! I have a new logo to show you that I, Bethany of i love SoOh, got to design for our Activated Spaces' Pop-Up Shop project! I'm so excited that I got to do this because graphic design is a hobby of mine I really enjoy. So without further blah blah, the logo and marketing material I designed:

I don't know if you all noticed but I even got to put a credit line in the lower right hand corner of the poster and palm card! I did that in hopes that I could do more work like this. So this is my unofficial announcement that I will be taking freelance work. As I said this is unofficial so I don't have many details other than email me about a project and I'll get back with you but in a couple weeks I will post a detailed list of services I can offer. Working on this project definitely reignited passions I've had but haven't had much of a chance to work on professionally. In particular; working for a non-profit to promote locally owned businesses through design and marketing. So if you have a project that needs graphics and/or a marketing plan that falls into that area, please be sure to email me. And even if your project isn't related to that area, email me anyway! Keep an eye out for more details on my freelance services.

Enough about me though, let's talk about these shops. Here is what you need to know:
