Salvaged Soul Design to Offer On-Site Artwork and Free Merchandise Consultations at IGES 2026
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lexington, Tenn. — September 22, 2026 — Salvaged Soul Design will participate in the 2026 International Gift Exposition in the Smokies (IGES), commonly known as the “Souvenir Super Show®,” November 3–5 at the Sevierville Convention Center in Sevierville, Tennessee.
During the show, Salvaged Soul Design will provide on-site artwork services and complimentary consultations for businesses interested in creating, expanding, or improving their own custom merchandise programs.
Visitors can meet one-on-one with owner and designer Jessica Marshall to discuss product ideas, artwork requirements, manufacturing options, production challenges, branding, and ways to develop merchandise that is both visually appealing and production-ready.
“Creating custom merchandise can feel overwhelming, especially when a business is unsure where to begin or has struggled to get its artwork ready for production,” said Marshall. “We want to make that process easier. Businesses can bring us an idea, an existing logo, a rough sketch, or even a file that another manufacturer rejected, and we can help identify the best path forward.”
With more than 25 years of experience in graphic design, prepress, product development, and custom manufacturing, Ms. Marshall specializes in bridging the gap between creative concepts and finished products. Her expertise includes preparing artwork for print and manufacturing, correcting production files, developing unique merchandise collections, and helping businesses source products that align with their brand, audience, and budget.
Salvaged Soul Design’s services include:
On-site artwork and design assistance
Production-ready artwork preparation
Logo cleanup and vector conversion
Custom merchandise design
Prepress and production file repair
Product development and sourcing guidance
Packaging and promotional design
Merchandise program consultations
The complimentary consultations are ideal for gift shops, tourist attractions, museums, independent retailers, event organizers, nonprofit organizations, and other businesses looking to introduce private-label, branded, name-drop, or location-specific merchandise.
Attendees are encouraged to bring existing artwork, product ideas, branding materials, or examples of merchandise they would like to create. Consultations will be available throughout the Sevierville portion of IGES, November 3–5, 2026.
Additional booth and appointment information will be announced before the event.
