Packaging Concepts for SPONAUGLE skincare.
Packaging Concepts for SPONAUGLE skincare.
I have been playing around with the idea of selling my own skin care items lately. These tariffs have decimated my income and the way I do business entirely. I have been making my own skin care and lotion for years and always wish to share what I’ve learned with others: especially when I see someone suffering with acne.
I have acne all throughout college and never could get a handle on it. Until I found oil cleansing and the use of natural ingredients to help my skin feel more normal. I make skin cleansers, lotions and lotion bars. I also make my own homemade remedies for situations that come up in my family’s everyday lives. Treating plantars warts, headaches, minor cuts and scrapes. Even making my own natural “vaseline” and chest cold rub. Beard oils, sore muscle rubs.
It may be time to shift my main focus for a bit until things change in our country. All my work from previous years has focused on small businesses and their needs. No one is buying or ordering with tariffs. Which, in turn, means I am not working on things for them any longer. I sure hope either returns.
For now, maybe I will have some luck with my new business venture in skincare and natural remedies. Fingers crossed. Here are some packaging design concepts I had made and am feeling liek need tweaks, but it’s a start.
Vintage Label Design
New Client Spotlight | Cindy @ Daffodil's in Del Mar
Cindy needed a new revamped logo & I was so happy to oblige! She loves vintage fonts, bows and a feminine style, but don’t let that trick you into thinking her shop doesn’t cater to males too! She does facials for men and has many items tailored to them as well.
Not only did Cindy need a logo, but I have been helping her with some other things too! So exciting to share more.
Cindy has thriving business within her shop in Del Mar too. It’s called Silver Lining Ageless Skin Care. She offers a variety of amazing facials & treatments for woman & men.
My first book publication is almost ready!
I am so very excited to share my first published book called Punky Poodle’s Book of Big words! I am in the final process of finishing it and it’ll be published September 13th - my own (punky’s birthday)! That’s what I call my daughter, Siri. My son, Theo, even makes an appearance as a blue poodle inside the book. This has been a long awaited dream of mine and I am so happy I could do so.
Here are some sneak peeks at some of the pages.

Brand Launch • Wild Edges Photobooth Co.
I cannot tell you how much fun I had doing this Branding / Identity for Wild Edges Photobooth Co. Angie, the owner, has such fun ideas in her mind and I was so thrilled to bring it to life! I was able to use my illustration of my Grandfather's old camera and incorporate some adorable flowers into the mix in her favorite colors. Adding the photo props into the logo was a great touch Angie thought of and was so thrilled I Was able to get each request just as she was thinking and hoping for.
Stop by and see the website I did for her as well, it's so fun to see all her sample pictures from events. It really gives you ideas on what kind of parties and events she can do.
