It's a nice range of colours, and sticking the labels on them was a nice touch.

my mistake was putting the labels on before I varnished trhe wood

you forgot root beer and strawberry-lime. those are my favs.
and i've discovered that you can send pictures in to have them put on the labels...i've decided that i'm gonna have to do that. what do you think?
π: 0 β©: 1
lol, I didn't forget either of those flavors. I decided brown looks shitty and I already had a red bottle. two reds would have looked bad.
and yes, I've known about that for a long time now. I haven't sent a pic in to them... yet.

Thatβs pretty much awesome, I love Jones sodas, in fact I drank a fu fu berry one earlier today.

heh, right on. I hate to be a little whore here... but I am selling them, and I'm doing so for pretty cheap
just in time for the hooooolidaaaays

I would buy one but I really am broke right now from spending my money on Christmas presents, but maybe I will after I get some money
π: 0 β©: 0
they are for sale for ridiculously cheap...
π: 0 β©: 0
P.S., wouldn't it be awesome to photograph one of these and then submit the pic to their website to become a label?
π: 0 β©: 1
hahaha yes... yes it would.

I can still remember the first time I ever saw Jones Soda at a tiny little coffee shop back home. I love the stuff. Now I can get it at my convenience store, which makes me happy

well, I was scraping for ideas really, and something made me want to glue actual things onto stencils to make them look halfway real and eventually through my train of thought, I remembered about jones soda bottle labels.

too much free time?
creating things is one of the best ways you can possibly spend your time.
so what the fuck do you do all day that's so damn important?

oh ps did you know that if you photoshop one of ur pictures (ooh say of a pidgon) into black and white, you can go to like.. myjones.com or something like that, maybe you can find a link through the jones soda homepage website, but basically almost all, if not all, of their bottle pictures are taken by amature photographers and then uploaded onto the main site, voted on, aaand maybe chosen to go on a lable. i myself have a few up, but i havnt seen any actually made. you can cheet too and actually order a case of personalized jones soda bottles, including flavor, picture you took, all kindsa stuff, good for birthdays or just cool keepsakes. and now you know....
unless you knew then nvm

yeah, I knew that heh. that would be neat though to get a pigeon on a wall up on a jones bottle...

That's really really good, like seriously.

if you really super like them... I'm selling paintings of individual bottles for $15 (see my latest journal entry)

yeah you wish I was silly. I'm the most serious human on the planet.
this is my serious face.

You're ridiculus! Just accept the fact that you're silly and move on, crazy-face.

how much would a rainbow one be? $120? or would there be like a buy in bulk discount
π: 0 β©: 1
oh there'd absolutely be a buy in build discount. the biggest cost is the shipping. supplies aren't that bad since you can get a hell of a lot of bottles out of one can of colored spraypaint. I would put one of those rainbow bastards (being 8 colors of your choice, in the order of your choice [but personally I think the standard rainbow thing works best]) would probably be... and I'm just pulling a number out of my ass here... probably $60.
I'm sorry I can't show you any pics of the final pieces after they're been varnished, but I can say with a ridiculous amount of confidense that they A LOT better with a coat of varnish over them. the jones pics I've got here aren't varnished so the wood looks like it came out of a scrap pile instead of super nice, shiny, deep and fancy yours will.
so yeah, $60 and you'll get one of those rainbow boards, same dimensions as the one pictured in my deviation (the actual measurements I'm not sure of)
any thoughts?

oh yeah id totally say stick with the roygbiv line up. $60 sounds reasonable for sure, id pay. im not sure about the shipping charges on such a big pice, i mean if i had to make an estimate size thats at least a 50/60" by what? maybe still 12"ish? thats gotta have a lot more as far as size and weight go. id pay the shipping and then some, weather thats more than $60 or not. i really like the way all the bottles are offset and some are "spun" so the lables arent all centered, thats really cool. christmas is coming up, not to meantion i just magically managed to pull off straight As this quarter, so im suuure i could talk my mom out of at least $60+ for an amazing, one of a kind IvoryDrive wall piece, but id hafta second the motion by one of the other posters and say a signature would be sweeet
π: 0 β©: 1
haha you got it. I'd love to do another big wall piece like that and for $60 plus shipping, this would really be a good deal for you and I'd make some money too heh. everybody happy!
so as soon as you get it confirmed that you do in fact want one, I'll remake the one I did for myself and hold it until I get a check in the mail.
sound good?
π: 0 β©: 1
sounds great! ill let you know when i can get my mom to write up a check for 60, im not sure what kinda shipping charges there'd be, you'll hafta update me on that, ill let you know as soon as my moms willing to write a check, thanks a lot!
π: 0 β©: 1
shipping from me to you would be about $10 for something like this.
π: 0 β©: 1
alright cool, i'll let you know when my moms good for writing the check and you can send me a note or somethin whit the address
