Great service, super fast printing and delivery and they were very helpful and gave me loads of help as i was providing my own artwork which i had created (I have NO experience or knowledge of these things). I believe they also do a design service. The quality of the print and banner is fab and it came on outdoor vinyl and had the rivets already in place, all for £15 or there abouts. Cant argue with tht. I think it makes the stall stand out from the crowd and i like to highlight the handmade aspect of my jewellery through the banner.

I'll be interested to watch this. I have a long one for the front of my stand but am doing a local agricultural show and would like one of those tall free standing ones to stand to the side/behind me

Here is my recent one. It's from Vistaprint. I started with a blank one and designed it myself. I'm really pleased with it. It can be hung on a wall as it has cornerie things which I havn't attached yet.

Whats the quality of print like Sarah? I have just had some mugs from vista print and really disappointed. I have done several over time with photo box and love them but these were fuzzy (and I know it's not my images) and even printed wonky

Fantastic quality.Sharp lines, good colour, decent canvas. The quality of your pics has to be good to start with, I went through so many before I was happy with the ones I used. To a professional they are probably still not good enough, but I was happy with them. I love it

I have had lots of positive comments from people at fairs. I have also had positive feee back from friends who I know would tell me if it was pants. I did get the all weather canvas just incase I am at an outdoors event. I think the only person to have seen it on here is Manda, and she's always nice about everything

I'd complain then Helen, cos I had a couple of mugs, and they were printed just fine - straight, and very clear.

(the only problem was my own making as I missed off a letter, should get someone else to proof read in future!)

I complained to Vista Print today, even the background bit (their template) was fuzzy Sarah so it's not my images

Anyway, they are reprinting them and said to just keep the the first ones so I guess that's pretty good

Your banner looks fantastic in the picture btw

I have been thinking that maybe I should get something either the one across the front type or a standing one.
