The Stamp

I noticed a lot of the old seed packets had been stamped with the company name and logo – and this seemed to fill the packets with life, the fact they weren’t perfect and were quite wonky, each one slightly different.
I wanted my design to have this charm too, so I have designed my own Project Allotment stamp, keeping to the old style design. I sent the design off to Germany where it has been made into a wooden stamp. This will help give my packets that unique handmade feel, that charm you get from imperfections. The very fact it was made in Germany and sent over imbues it with more meaning and soul than a lifeless print out you get from a computer generated graphic.
