Bumper Sticker Update #4

As stated in previous posts, I create and distribute bumper stickers as an antidote to dogmatic bumper stickers that tell others what to do, think, and/or believe because I have found that even if I agree with the sentiment, they make me feel anxious. I love the idea of saying nothing and letting others interpret the bumper sticker for themselves, it is my small way of adding a little tranquility to the roadways, where it is badly needed. Because I like to see them on the roads, and because I like to distribute as many as possible, I offer all U.S. residents one free as long as they promise to put them on their cars; all other bumper stickers are $10. Since I post all my new ones on my Facebook page first, you need to check there to see what is available (I never have more than the last two on-hand). If you want one, just email me your address and it will show up in your mailbox. Below are the twenty-first through the twenty-seventh in the series.

With all of my previous bumper stickers I had used the printing companies cheapest printing method. I didn't always capture the colors exactly as I had envisioned them but that was good enough as long as I had many different colors in the design. However, when I changed to a more minimalist style, each color became critically important so I needed more accuracy. After going back and forth with the printing company a few times they suggested upgrading to their digital process. It is more expensive but it was too embarrassing to be associated with stickers I hadn't intended.

Of course, this isn't a money making business but I do find it fun and entertaining. Some people go to movies, others give away bumper stickers, to each their own.
