Leather Stamping Events for Global Experience Specialists in Las Vegas

March 21, 2019 By Desiree Colonna

Leather stamping events in Las Vegas are something new and exciting on the trade show scene. We had the pleasure of creating our leather stamping experience for our partners at Global Experience Specialists (GES) for an evening Las Vegas event at Exhibitor Live 2019. GES wanted to provide a personalized leather stamping experience for their guests, something they had never experienced before. Our leather stamping events are always very popular at private parties.

The event was held in the Boombox nightclub inside of the Cosmopolitan Casino on the main Las Vegas strip. We offered a rainbow of Royce Leather luggage tags and stamped them for guests in both silver and gold foil. Guests were able to enjoy the beautiful view behind us of the marquees on the strip. It was a fun and enjoyable setting in a very relaxed atmosphere.

Guests had our leather stampers put their initials on each tag as the work was done right in front of them at a long table. Desiree and Joe were able to stamp 200 leather luggage tags within 2 hours. Some guests opted to give the tags to friends and family so they gave us their monograms to hand stamp instead of their own.

These beautifully designed real Nappa leather luggage tags were the hit of the night.

Guests loved the activation and Inkwell even had orders for more after the leather stamping events which they were happy to fulfill and send to the recipients.

If you are interested in our leather stamping events, please contact us at 833 INK-WE11 or 833 465-9311 to discuss your requested dates and venue. We travel from Atlanta worldwide with our traditional printing presses. We can help you create a unique experience at your next trade show or private party your guests will absolutely love!

Experiential Marketing Artists Dual Activation in Las Vegas

March 7, 2019 By Desiree Colonna

Experiential marketing artists, Desiree Colonna and Joe Krupa, were the hit of the ExhibitorLive 2019 show in Las Vegas. The team worked simultaneously in the Unigroup Booth for both Mayflower and United Van Lines corporate executives. Desiree is the CEO and owner of Inkwell Designers.

Desiree engraved pens on site for Mayflower while Joe embossed faux leather journals on the other side of the booth for United. This was the first time Inkwell offered two different experiential marketing artists at one show performing two separate activations. The services went well together. Once someone got their pen engraved, they could go get their journal embossed on the other side and vice versa. This increased customer interaction for the salespeople in both booths up to 50%!

Guests absolutely loved Inkwell’s experiential marketing artists and watching both artists design unique, personalized gifts by hand right in front of them.

Once the buzz caught on at the show, there were lines of people waiting for their pen to be engraved on one site of the booth and journal to be embossed on the other side. Everyone talked about the experiential marketing artists activation the entire week and wanted to see them in action.

The booth owner, Unigroup, was so impressed with how smoothly the activation went and it’s popularity, they invited Inkwell back for several shows in 2019 and 2020.

The booth owners were amazed at how popular both activations were and how many highly qualified leads they received.

The three day show was a lot of fun. We engraved and embossed almost 1,000 items for guests who visited the Mayflower and United booths during the show.

If you are interested in booking dual services for your next show, engraving and embossing, please see more details on our events page. You can set up a meeting to talk directly with us here. You also have the option of texting or calling us at 833 465 9311. We look forward to working in your booth at your next trade show or conference!

Event Embossing with Preferred Hotels and Resorts

January 21, 2019 By Desiree Colonna

Event embossing is an annual Atlanta event sponsored by Preferred Hotels and Resorts for their clients and guests. We were honored to be asked to join the festivities by providing leather goods and embossing services at the event. The event embossing was held at a beautifully restored venue called The Estate in Buckhead.

A local designer supplied a variety of leather goods we then added customer’s initials and monograms to in gold and silver foil live at the event.

Guests loved the experience of seeing their monograms hand stamped right in front of them.

The designer supplied wine carriers, passport covers in several colors and luggage tags. The leather is sourced from Spain as well as the craftsmanship and production. These luxury leather items make our event embossing clients and guests feel very special. They know they are getting something hand made and high quality when they hold a leather item in their hands.

Our activation doesn’t take much space. We only need a table and two chairs by an electrical outlet. Each item takes less than one minute to emboss. We can usually get 50 to 60 done per hour per embosser. We travel from Atlanta around the globe to bring our event embossing to clients who are excited to have us at their events.

If you are interested in having us emboss or paint leather in your store or at your event, please contact us at 833 465 9311 for pricing and information. Or fill out this form and we’ll contact you right away.

Foil Embossing at University Events for Zenni Optical and Her Campus Media

November 14, 2018 By Desiree Colonna

Foil embossing was a big hit with students experiencing the Zenni Optical and Her Campus Media “The Future Looks Bright Tour” at universities across Florida and South Carolina. The sun was shining bright and both the men and women on campus were excited to receive some great gifts.

Her Campus Media sponsored the event and coordinated the tour stops and our foil embossing station. The popup shops were set up on the green of each campus.

We performed our foil embossing experience in person on the tour. We embossed glasses and sunglasses cases for students at University of South Carolina, Florida State University and the University of Central Florida. Students who purchased a pair of sunglasses or prescription glasses at the pop-up shop were treated to a new case with their monogram foil embossed on it.

Each leg of the tour was fun for all of us. Students were able to try on pairs of sunglasses and frames. Everyone who visited the pop-up shop received a free pair of sunglasses.

The cases were made out of vinyl and took the foil embossing perfectly with no issues.

The embossing event was something students had never seen (pun intended) and once word got around, lines started to form at each tour stop.

Our tour was a success and we look forward to bringing out foil embossing station to events with Her Campus Media and Zenni in the future.

If you are interested in having this experience for your next event, please see our embossing event information on this page or call us at 833 465 9311 for a quote. We also offer calligraphy, engraving, painting and many more experiences.

Monogrammed Leather Gifts at Sprintacular in San Antonio

October 31, 2018 By Desiree Colonna

Monogrammed leather gifts were the highlight of the Sprintacular party for top Sprint salespeople at Knibbe Ranch in San Antonio, Texas. It was a spectacular celebration with monogrammed leather gifts for every guest. Our embossing team of five including 2 Joes, 2 Emilys and 1 Desiree had a great time at the event!

Inkwell Designers℠ was invited to monogram leather keychains, notebooks, passport holders, bracelets and card wallets on-site. Over 450 top Sprint salespeople attended the event with friends and spouses.

We had five embossers hot stamping over 900 leather items for guests who attended. All five embossers stayed almost an hour overtime to ensure everyone received the monogrammed leather gifts they wanted.

Clients could select the exact way they wanted the monogram to read as well as choose the color foil they wanted. Here is an example of one of the keychains we embossed.

Team members were ready to help clients choose the right gift and make it their own with gold and silver foil and a blind deboss option.

Our team was more than happy to make sure guests received their monogrammed leather items exactly the way they wanted them as well as share a smile!

Guests were treated to dinner, dancing with a live band, a hat of their choice and our monogrammed leather gifts to take home after the night was over around 10:30 pm.

They came from all over the country to celebrate their success. When it got dark, they helped the embossers by sharing their flashlights on their phones outside so we could finish every job with perfection!

Everyone had a great time and loved the monogrammed leather gifts activation. Personalized leather gifts are always a hit with any crowd we work with from New York to Los Angeles and yes, down in San Antonio. Even the horses loved it!

We offer monogrammed leather gifts on site at events around the world. We also offer painted leather and engraved gifts.

Personalized Leather Swag at Dreamforce Creates Networking Buzz

September 30, 2018 By Desiree Colonna

Personalized leather swag at Dreamforce created a huge buzz in San Francisco last week. Our personalized leather swag activation table had a 10 to 15 minute wait with lines that never stopped 8 hours a day, 3 days straight. To us, this is normal and happens at almost every event we’re invited to. People love customized leather gifts so much, they are willing to wait for them. We were even more popular than the Godiva® chocolate booth giving away free samples right behind us!

So, you might think waiting in line is a bad thing, but it’s actually pretty magical. As people stand in line, we watched business cards swapped, stories traded and people making contact instead of looking at their phones. At a tech conference, there is something to be said for this. The line got people talking to each other and networking. That is always a huge goal at any conference.

What was a little different about this conference, is our client, Salesforce, requested custom stamps to go along with the monograms. We were able to create two dies, one with Astro, the character they created and one with a campsite line drawing which was the theme of the conference. We can now create custom dies which go with any monogram and can be added at the beginning, end and even the middle. People LOVED them!

We personalized over 2,000 luggage tags and leather charger rolls in three days. At the end of the last day, we had people hanging around our booth until the event closed at 6 pm. Security had to literally escort them out!

Our activation doesn’t take up much space. We just need a 6 ft table and two chairs. We’re very easy to fit in most any footprint at a tradeshow or event.

If you’re looking for a unique experience for your next event, tradeshow or conference, please contact us at 833 465 9311. We’d love to discuss the details or please click here to read more about other ways we can personalized your swag including engraving, painting and calligraphy.
