Gift Couture Steak Wrapping Paper

A new Kickstarter Project needs your help. Sarah and Justin are in the start-up phases of a small gift wrapping company called Gift Couture. They design gift wrap sets that coordinate together into unique themes, and they wanted to share their latest set with me...

A fresh new steak on gift wrap!


Hello! We are Sarah Fay and Justin Colt, owners and operators of Gift Couture, a small start-up wrapping paper company based out of our apartment in New York City. Our goal is to create unique, high-quality coordinated wrapping paper sets that feature original photography and designs. We were able to launch Gift Couture a year and a half ago, with the help of everyone who backed our cheeseburger paper.
Since then, we have started working with D&K Printing, a locally-owned family business in Boulder, Colorado with a focus on sustainable printing practices.  We are currently trying to raise enough funds to have them print and package our newest coordinated wrapping paper set–a steak and cutting board!
We already have the set completely designed, and if our funding goal is reached, we will be able to deliver to Kickstarter backers by the end of August, 2013.
This is a versatile set that can be combined with other elements–such as butcher paper and meat trays, for a highly unique gifting experience!  We have two different packages available to Kickstarter backers:
































Thank you to all of our supporters! Everyone who contributes to our project will be featured on a special contributors section of the official Gift Couture website. Our highest backers will each receive one of our hand-made golden steak trophies as a sign of our appreciation!






Risks and challengesLearn about accountability on Kickstarter

Having successfully funded, manufactured, and distributed our past Kickstarter campaign, we've built a streamlined fulfillment process in order to deliver the paper quickly and efficiently. We can assure there won't be any mis-steaks.
We fully intend on keeping in touch with and updating all of our backers if any unforeseen setbacks arise along the way.

I really hop this works out for them.

Good Luck!!!

Big Poppa Smokers & BJ's Brewhouse - Summer 2013



This is the video that has been taking up so much of my time lately. It looks like MEAT ME's videos have finally paid off. Sterling Ball of Big Poppa Smokers asked me to shoot his summer video launching his new partnership with BJ's Restaurants. They are using his Sweet Money rub on their ribs, and his Jallelujah rub on their french fries. Together they are packing quite the flavorful punch.

Sterling isn't lying when he say's, "As a consumer you are not expecting this good-a-rib at a restaurant!"

I co-direct this video with Ryan McClain, Sterling's Director of Event & Entertainment Marketing. We spent about 2 days shooting a recreation of the original magic that brought both Big Poppa and BJ's Restaurants together. Following the shoot I spent another 3 weeks editing and finally finished with this wonderful gem.

I would like to personally thank Sterling Ball aka Big Poppa, for the opportunity to create such a high quality product. They were a blast to work with and I look forward to creating more awesome videos in the future.

You can order Sweet Money and Jallelujah rubs right off Big Poppa's Website.

Finally success,
