Speedy coverage…

I had a small but perfectly formed panic at the beginning of the week when I realised that we are having a stall at the fabulous Party in the Park next week and despite loads of preparation, recipe tests, ingredient purchasing and general list making I had for gotten to order aprons for my team. I’d promised them cute little aprons that would not only protect their clothes on the day but also make it clear who there were working for – Aprons with logos on!

Now, I don’t know if you’ve ever had to source this sort of thing, but from previous experience it seems to take a couple of weeks minimum, no matter how simple the design or small the order. So I panicked!

And then I hit Google and found these guys…The Clever Baggers

They had the right size aprons, were able to print on them for a very small fee and had a minimum order of 1 – perfect. My only concern was that I couldn’t find any reference to delivery schedule on the site but I figured I may as well go ahead and just keep my fingers crossed as I hadn’t found anyone else who could do it anyway.

So, yesterday morning I uploaded my logo, placed the order and crossed my fingers…

Yesterday about 2pm, I had an email back from Scarlett in the Design Team with a proof for me to check – pretty speedy I though, this bodes well! Quick estimation in my head, allowing for the Bank Holiday and Royal Mail issues I would hope the finished aprons would be with me by Friday (fingers still very much crossed!).

Imagine my surprise then, this morning, to find a package on my doorstep containing 3 perfectly printed aprons. 

It’s not often these days that a service not only does what it says, but exceeds all expectations with the minimum of fuss. Clever Baggers are definitely going on my ‘websites to recommend list’ and they don’t just do aprons, if you need anything fabric printed go and check them out!

Thank you Clever Baggers – you’ve made my week :)
