CHRISTMAS IN JUNE: COLLABORATION WITH HOTEL SHILLA

I've never received an inquiry from South Korea but such was the case when I got an email from Seoul last year. The luxury Hotel Shilla (owned by the Samsung Group-- TVs and hotels, who knew?) contacted me to work on holiday branding and packaging for their pastry boutique, and an invitation to a gala dinner. They commissioned me to write out the holiday favorite "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year." One of my favorite parts of the experience was signing the contract. It involved overlapping the pages and signing across them (the first time I've done this). They, of course, used their company's much classier red stamp. What fun to think of their customers toting these bags around such a faraway place. Thanks to Jennifer + the Hotel Shilla!
