Goodthings in White bear Lake MN

Goodthings is a upscale gift store in the old downtown district of White Bear Lake.  The designer brought in the logo of the Goodthings.  Clay Squared blew the logo up to 2' x 2' and matched the colors to fit there color scheme.  We also made 1"x1" logo tiles for each logo image used for the mosaics bordering the six main logo images. The letters were hand carved.
