-
It all started with a call to see if we could help with their project.
-
Our Administrative Assistant, Michelle took down all the info for us to write up an estimate.
-
Harry wrote up the estimate with a couple of choices.
-
Angela met with the client, helped them build their brand, including logo and setting their colors. She then created the design for the wrap, pre-pressed the project and set the files to be print ready.
-
Grace printed the many sheets of vinyl needed to cover the bus.
-
(Our big HP Latex 360 printer!)
-
-
She trimmed the vinyl to the proper size.
-
(That's A LOT of vinyl!)
-
Then Grace used the Graphtec plotter to cut the nice curve in the front of the graphics.
-
(It's like a more complicated, huge Cricket machine!)
-
Jake then expertly applied the wrap.
-
It's finished!

Dignity for Divas' Founder & Director came herself to pick up the gorgeous bus!
Dignity for Divas’ mission is to support women across the Puget Sound transition out of homelessness using a self-care platform that creates pathways to success. Although services are provided to anyone in need—Men, Women, and Children alike, Dignity for Divas primary focus is on women, as they tend to be particularly vulnerable to the physical, mental, and emotional hardships of homelessness. Dignity for Divas is a Seattle- based non-profit currently operating in Everett, Kent, Renton, Tacoma, and Bellevue as well. Between 2012 and 2017, they successfully delivered over 30,000 essential care packages, called Diva Survival Kits, as part of its monthly Diva Duty program that targets women living on the streets in these cities. Dignity for Divas believes self-care is the first step on the road to stability and self-sufficiency.
In addition to providing essential care packages to women who are homeless, in emergency shelters, and living in encampments, they deliver home essential kits to women who have recently secured housing and offer several classes and workshops in computer job training, financial literacy, goal setting, health and wellness, and beauty. Dignity for Divas weaves the message of self-care into all its programming, thereby taking a personal and holistic approach to fighting homelessness.
Their new, wrapped bus will provide rides to services and workshops for women in need.
Shine On Signs & Graphics are very proud to help bring their dream to life.
