Design Days

I’m here to help you tackle that never ending to-do list one design job at a time! If you want to focus on running your business and need high-quality, on brand collateral, bespoke illustrations, pattern designs or anything else that’s in that brilliant brain of yours, a design day will help to support you in a simple and joy-filled way.

What can I create in a design day?

Anything you need!

  • Social media templates

  • Email graphics

  • Animated gifs

  • Product design

  • Surface pattern designs

  • Podcast covers

  • Business cards and stationery

  • Packaging design

  • Website support graphics

Investment: £375 (full day)/ £200 (half day)

The Process

  • Head to my enquiry form using the ‘lets work together’ button at the top of my page and once it pings into my inbox I will send over my availability and my terms and conditions. If we are a good fit and I take on the project, a 50% deposit will be required to secure your spot in my calendar and then we can get started!

  • Once you’re booked in I will ask you what you would like to work on and we will agree on a set of deliverables for me to work on during the design day. I’ll ask you to provide visual inspiration, colour palettes and any copy that I might need prior to the design day.

  • I’ll get to work on our agreed deliverables and will check in with you over email throughout the day (dependent on how many designs I am working on).

  • I will send over all of the designed elements that I have worked on during the day and we can make any small revisions that may be required.

  • Within 48 hours of our design day you will receive a link to google drive which will contain all of your final files. Any editable designs will be uploaded to your canva account. Sit back and enjoy your brand new shiny designs (with your favourite drink in hand of course)!

Kind words from lovely clients

  • Emma was an absolute joy to work with on my branding. Emma made everything seem so effortless.The design process had a wonderful collaborative feel, but I also felt I was in safe hands and that I didn't need to worry about the final outcome. Emma just captured my vision and ran with it. I was also super impressed with the turnaround time. Despite my old branding annoying me for years I had been putting it off as I was apprehensive about the process and finding the right designer to work with, I am so happy I found Dainty Forest. I love my new branding and I would definitely work with Emma again in the future.

    LEANNE | LETTERBOX LANE

  • I couldn’t be happier with the branding services provided by Emma at Dainty Forest! From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. She truly understands the essence of a brand and translated my vision into a stunning and cohesive brand identity. Her creativity and attention to detail are unparalleled. The final product exceeded my expectations. Emma is incredibly talented and a joy to work with. Highly recommend!

    ASHLEY | POPS AND DUDES

  • Emma is a dream to work with - she really gets to know her customers so she can create branding that brings their business to life. I’ve worked with Emma twice now and she’s exceeded my expectations both times.

    HOLLY | TILLY & PRIMROSE

  • Working with Emma was an absolute breeze. From the get-go, she was super friendly and approachable, making the whole process feel like chatting with a friend rather than just another project. Not only was she lightning fast with her work (seriously, blink and she'd already have something awesome whipped up), but she also totally got what I was going for! If you're looking for someone who's not only talented but also a joy to collaborate with, look no further. Looking forward to working together again on future projects!

She executed the work with incredible creativity, thoughtfulness and we had really good communication throughout the projects. I would 100% recommend her!

    LAURA | PREP & POLISH

  • Emma has been such a joy to work with!!! She is the sweetest, so creative, and helpful! She absolutely brought my vision to life. I couldn’t imagine it turning out better than what she did. I highly recommend her for all of your illustration/ branding needs! She’s the best of the best and puts so much heart into her work!

    MEREDITH | POPPY KIDS CO

  • Emma has been fantastic to work with. She has accommodated everything I have asked for, and created a rebrand I am truly in love with. The whole process was super easy, Emma really took onboard the vision I had for my business and helped it come to life. I can't wait to share this with my customers and see what they think. I would 100% recommend Dainty Forest to anyone, and will definitely be looking into booking in to work with Emma again in the future!

    JENNIE | OLIVE AND MABEL

  • I stumbled across Dainty Forest on Instagram. I was in a pickle with how to make my brand/social media look and feel more professional and didn’t know where to start. I messaged Emma who instantly put my mind at ease. She listened to my vision but I already knew she would help me achieve what I wanted. Her illustrations and art work are just joyful. She brought Choc and Peanut to life for me, I love what she does. So much so I’ve worked with her several times and will continue to do so. Safe to say the best investment I’ve made in my business and I couldn’t recommend someone highly enough.

    FLISS | CHOC & PEANUT

  • Loved to work with Emma! She understood exactly what we wanted and all the process was super smooth and deligent. Would recomend in a heartbeat!

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes! As long as you have a cohesive brand identity in place, I’m happy to help you with your brand collateral needs. All I need is a high quality logo file, your brand colours, brand fonts, and any imagery and copy you’d like to use, and I can create what you need!

  • Yes absolutely! When we discuss your needs I will let you know how many design days this will be and how much is possible to get done in one day so that we’re on the same page. You will be surprised at how much can be achieved in one day!

  • No, not at all. Design days can be flexible and although I will send you emails on the day, I don’t expect you to be available for the whole day. I will work my design magic and send artwork towards the end of the day so that you can review everything. If you have any questions during the day you can of course email any time.

  • A 50% deposit will be required to secure your booking and your final payment will be made once the project has been completed. Payment plans can be discussed on a case to case basis.

  • Design days include one round of revisions. I collaborate with you every step of the way as you know your business and ideal clients best so revisions are usually minimal.

  • I have worked for over 12 years as a designer and I have learned to work smarter not harder using my time effectively and getting the most out of your day. I am full of creative ideas and can quickly use the information you give me to interpret the brief into on brand, cohesive designs that will work for you and your business.
