Phone cases created by artists often feature lyrics from their songs and girly colors to appeal to primarily female audiences. Bags made by Ellie Goulding contain either lyrics or images but not usually both, so using both may help designs stand out. T-shirts for bands like McFly typically have lyrics, images, or tour dates but not usually both together to keep the designs simple. Mugs with just text rather than busy images with one main element look cleaner and better.

2. PHONE CASES
From looking at other artists, many have created cases for
their fans.
My reseach shows that Ellie Goulding alone has a lot of
phone cases use lyrics from her songs for example, one
says anything could happen. As well as using her lyrics,
the cases feature girly colours as her audience is primarily
girls.
The idea we can get from this is that we could use songs
lyrics and non-gender biased colours for our phone cases

4. BAGS
Again using Ellie Goulding as an example, she uses a
variety of lyrics and popular images on bags. Most of the
bags have either an image or lyrics, not mnay contain
both.
It may be worth us considering using both on our bags to
stand out

6. T-SHIRTS
There are different types of clothing types available
through merchandise. There are a variety of tops, hoody's
and vests available on line.
The t-shirts for mcfly contain a variety of lyrics, images
and tour dates. Its rare that mcfly use both lyrics and
images on their t-shirts as they're kept relatively simple.

8. MUGS
• The mugs I have chosen here all have lyrics/text on
them rather than just one image as some that had an
image looked too busy and messy. I found the more
simplistic mug designs were kept the better they look .
