Art Director & Product Designer: Holiday & Party Decor

Honeyplum Celebrates is seeking an experienced Art Director and Product Designer to lead our
creative team. Your mission will be to oversee the process of product ideation and art direction to
bring new products to life in the Holiday and Party Décor niches.
Position: Art Director & Product Designer: Holiday & Party Decor
About Us:
At Honeyplum Celebrates, we don’t just create products; we aim to design magical experiences.
Our vibrant and stylish greeting cards, holiday decor, and party decor are crafted with love and
creativity to add that extra touch of style to life’s most special moments. We’re a small team of
dreamers and believers who are obsessed with designing products that make celebrations more
fun, colorful, and stylish. We’ve historically been an Amazon ecommerce brand, and all of our
products can be found on the US marketplace.
The Role:
We refer to this role as “the most fun job in the company.” As our Art Director & Product Designer,
your mission will be to dream up new, stylish products and oversee our artist’s work of turning them
into reality. This role is a combination of art direction / visual artist meets product designer.
You’ll be tasked with projects like:
• Product Ideation: Imagine and conceptualize new product ideas, designs, and styles that will
grace the homes of families celebrating holidays (Halloween, Christmas, Easter, etc) and special
occasions (birthdays, baby showers, wedding showers, etc).
• Art Direction: Brainstorm, collaborate, and problem solve with our illustrator throughout the
process of bringing products to life which will include activities like compiling Pinterest style boards
for an upcoming product line, drafting creative briefs, detailing product specs, functionality,
material, and other details needed for our illustrator to design, and manufacturing partners to
make.
• Closely Collaborate: you’ll oversee and work very closely with our illustrator to bring engaging,
stylish design to life. If a design element feels missing, or doesn’t work cohesively with other design
elements you should be a master at identifying it, and proposing different fonts, colors, textures,
brush styles, etc to ultimately create a stunning visual outcome.
• You may also assist with other creative brand elements. Examples include designing marketing or
social media graphics, editing product listing photos, visual ads and other creative elements.
• Stay Trendy: Keep abreast of style trends, market demands, and customer preferences to stay
ahead in the world of product design.
Requirements:
• An exceptionally strong understanding of great design! You must understand how all design
components (colors, fonts, layouts, illustration style, etc) can best be brought together to achieve
maximum emotional impact, style, and appeal.
• 7+ years of art director, graphic design, or illustrative experience
• A strong understanding of design trends and styles that appeal to the North American market
(primarily USA).
• Experience with overseeing a team of creative designers. Currently we have 1 full time illustrator
with plans to hire additional in the next 6-12 months. Illustrators will work at the direction of the Art
Director.
• Experience with a variety of graphic design software (Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Procreate, etc)
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• Interest for learning product design that delights and spreads joy.
