Running a tiny record label out of my cellar, been designing some DIY merch from scrap denim and cardboard!

Hi all,
Just thought I'd share the first few items of merch I have made for my record label Char Records. I've got a very DIY mindset for the label, all the music is made direct to cassette tapes on a Tascam 07 Portastudio and I wanted my merch to represent that!

The first item I made was a tape for "Two Drones From The Cellar" by Archoill, an ambient project. I hand dub the cassettes in The Cellar (my recording studio!) and use recycled toilet paper tubes for the packaging as they fit perfectly. I love the look of these and have had such lovely reception from people who have purchased them.

The second item is a very simple patch made from recycled jeans which I wrote "The Cellar" on (can you guess why?!). I love these, I have one on my denim jacket and they just fit perfectly. Very very proud of them.

Just thought I'd share them cause you guys seem to love the left-of-the-middle style of music and merchandise. If anyone wants to check it out my bandcamp is here.

I'd love to see any other homemade merch other people have made as well, it's the kinda items I love buying from people!

Hope you all have a lovely day! :))
