  • can anyone help with shop front layouts please?

    Hi Guys,

    I’ve been looking at this job for days now and just can’t get excited about it !

    The brief is to frost out the top/middle and all 3 bottom windows of this hairdressers. The client would like a large J P in a circle in the middle window 🙄

    They may also want the bottom of the door frosted too.

    I’ve considered maybe some bubbles cut into the frosting or wording to match the sign above.

    The font used is Sarah.

    Any help really appreciated if you can spare a couple of minutes.

    Cheers,
    Cheryl 😀

    Hi Martin,
    thanks for that. I love the idea of the off set circle.

    Regards,
    Cheryl

    P.S. what flavour is it ? 😀

    Martin, that looks fab!
    Very classy and not the typical look for such a place.
    love….Jill
    PS
    Are pot noodles like Ramen noodles?
    We love those.
    My kids even eat them raw! (minus the flavor pack)

    Chicken with sweetcorn and very nice it was too thanks Cheryl 😀

    Thanks Jill & Marcella.

    Jill I don’t know what Ramen noodles are, probably the same thing just add water give it 5 mins and down they go, can’t imagine eating them raw though 🙁

    I would probably just do something she wasn’t asking for (?) 😀

    Andrew,
    thanks for that. I like that idea too.

    Unfortunately, the client has gone for the sarah font and still wants a sort of circle with JP in the middle. 🙄

    I’d appreciate any more thoughts and ideas folks. 😀

    Cheers,
    Cheryl

    I have to agree, it’s got a very professional look about it. Makes the shop look more upmarket.

    Here is my 5mins worth, I don’t have the correct font but you get the idea.

    If it were my customer I would show them a layout including new fascia sign as Andrew has done. For the sake of half an hour messing about in illustrator you might end up with more work from the job.
