my own range of stuff

I have finished my 3rd brief - the 'i love/i hate' range of paper based gift products. my camera is shocking I wish I had hired an SLR but oh well.
i think it makes the screen printed book a lot stronger to have a whole range of stuff in the same idea supporting it. i've just realised i didn't include the book in this photo.
There were some problems like the paper is a little too thick for the bag and the greeting cards packet doesn't close properly but overall i think its turned out ok and i know how to do it differently next time.
i want to show this in context on one of my boards but i don't really know how to. I don't want to photoshop it into Paperchase or anything. I might make a gift set out of it and put a price on it or something i don't know.
I was wondering how i would produce this stuff after i leave college, if i want them to be screen printed. i will need to look into it and ask some people who do this for a living, like juicylucy design from a previous post. I will definitely keep producing greeting cards if nothing else.
