Stella1952 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 What are these? We may know them by a different name... Do you have a link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vio Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I just saw them. They're 1 1/2 oz hex jars. Found them while looking at a member's website. http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69289 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Ummm, did I miss something, Vio? Looked at the website from the CT link you posted but didn't see anything "precious momentsy"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 You have to click on the member's link to the website and go to containers. These look like they are not actually Precious Moment containers but a hex jar with a PM sticker adhered to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SliverOfWax Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 What are these? We may know them by a different name... Do you have a link? Precious Moments is a trademarked name. Google it and you'll see what she's talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vio Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Yeah that's the only thing I'd ever seen and coincidentally it was just before I had read this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krafty Kandles Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Seems like you could just purchase PM stickers and make your own containers. I have seen them made for scrapbooking. Check out Michaels or on ebay for stickers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlascandles Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I personally would get the Precious Moments image I wanted and make water slide decals for the containers.......just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accents Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I've got a couple Precious Moments votive glass holders, but I've had them a while and don't remember where they came from, maybe a Hallmark store. There are also Precious Moments mugs out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth-VT Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Ayup. If you put a PM sticker (or anything) on it, and sell it.....that would be trademark infringement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Does anyone every email people they see selling things with what has to be trademarked images etc. and tell them about selling without permission?Just wondering....I was zooming around esty and have seen lots of stuff on there (nothing candle or B&B related) that has things like spongebob etc. on the products and you know these people can't have the rights to sell so just wondering if anyone actually emails these people about it?

SliverOfWax Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Most large companies who have trademarked characters, slogans, or insignia have software that continually searches the internet for keywords. If they find you, you'll most likely be the unhappy recipient of a C&D. Stores like Hallmark buy rights to market trademarked items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I figured the companies watch out somehow but just wondering if people actually take the time to tell these sellers they could get into trouble for it?Just gets me that so many people sell and don't care..it's like begging for trouble. It's a no brainier that this stuff is TM-ed so it just surprises me that it's so "out there" when they sell.Last year at a craft show one lady had a whole booth (12x12) of gel candles in sports themed glasses....she thought it was great cause she got all the glasses at flea markets for cheap.....:tiptoe: She didn't see the problem and figures how would anyone know...well you never do know but she didn't get that point, along with the other safety issues going on but what ya gonna do...anyway sorry for the hijack...

SliverOfWax Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 At a very large show that's held in my city twice a year, the 2 major state universities swooped in and lowered the boom on people selling stuff with the football teams' themes. I don't know how it ended, but those vendors probably won't be promoting OU and OSU for awhile. lolSeveral years ago I had a friend who made adorable pet clothes. She made the cutest things with OU/OSU stuff on them. That little venture of hers didn't last long. They caught her. She then inquired about buying the rights but it was way over her head financially. As I recall, she had to pay just to be considered before a panel. No refund if the answer was, "no". It was very messy and very iffy, so she declined to play their game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
