Sniff Design Studio is 10 Years Old!

Sniff Design Studio is 10 Years Old!

It’s our birthday! YAY!!! Little Sniff Design Studio is 10 years old. To celebrate our birthday we thought it would be fun to give you the presents. That’s right! For the next 10 days we are going to be giving a freebie away each day. Plus, with the 4th of July right around the corner…the timing could not be more perfect for us to share in the American dream of the almighty freebie to the good ol’ spirit of small business independence! So, sit, stay and enjoy!

To kick start our “10 Days of Giveaways – Celebrating 10 Years of Success”,  we have created a set of animal themed luggage tags to print and use. With summertime in full force there is nothing like taking a trip to get away. Even better is having a custom tag hanging off  your own baggage to set it apart. Download this DIY luggage tag set comprised of various animal designs and have fun!

 

DIRECTIONS:
•Print out on card stock/thick paper.
•Cut around the edges and score the middle of each tag with the dulled object (think butter knife).
•Fold over each tag and then cut the top sides. Viola!
•Feel free to share this fun n’ furried freebie.

DIY Suitcase Dog Bed

Check out this neat DIY dog bed I found via Shop Rouche.com’s blog. Naturally, since I thought that this project was so cool, it would be a great way to create something bright and colorful to help bring in a dose of early spring for Fido or Ms. Kitty.

What’s more, I love just how simple it is to do!

Materials:

2. Measure and cut out a piece of foam to fit inside of the suitcase. You can add multiple layers of foam for more cushion.

3. Choose a fun fabric to place over the foam. Cut out a piece that is larger than the area of the suitcase (you’ll need the extra length to secure the fabric).

4. Place the fabric over the foam and tuck it in at the edges and corners. For a more secure fit, you can also take two pieces of fabric (both large enough to cover the foam) and sew them at the edges to create a pillowcase to cover the foam with.

5. Present your furry friend with their comfy new bed and add in their favorite toys!

Friday Freebie – Vintage Dog & Cat Treat Label Designs

It’s Friday again, and you know what that means! Yep, it’s another cool freebie from your fellow friends here at Sniff Design Studio.

This vintage dog and cat label design was influenced by our in-house mini dachshunds, Mina and Max. You see, they are part of a group known as PawPals. This means that every month they get a box of goodies from their own PawPal. They too get to send out a goodie box to their own designated monthly PawPal. So, this month Mina and Max asked for a bit of help coming up with something yummy, fun and original.

The result was a vintage jar filled with dog treats with a custom made label. As a result the doxies ‘digged’ the label so much that they want to share it with everyone. They even had us design a set for those of the feline persuasion. Enjoy!
