Sending the gift of flowers from seeded paper since 1995
Here is a quick look at the Northlake Wedding Program for the Center for Urban Horticulture event space. We are using our Earth Silk ribbon blend #016 in conjunction with the lotka seed paper, black print and a light weight slate background. We think this says Whimsical Romance! What do you think?
We will be exhibiting at the second annual Northlake Wedding & Event Tour on Sunday, November 10th!
Spend the day “cruising around the Northlake Area in limos and party buses while visiting an array of beautiful venues and talented wedding vendors along the way”.
Tickets are $20 and include transportation to each venue, a sampling of the amazing featured catering options and gift bags for the first 50 guests!
The Tour will begin at UW Center for Urban Horticulture with registration taking place from 10:00am – 12:30pm. Transportation will be provided from 11am-4pm.
Be sure to stop by our booth at the first stop on the tour – the Center for Urban Horticulture (where our earth friendly goods will be fittingly displayed). Say “hello” and check out a few of our favorite invite samples and the most popular designs of 2013. OH, we will also be offering a sneak peek of next season’s collection – something you will not want to miss! See you there!
It appears we have officially segued into the fashion industry: we have launched our very first silk ribbon wrap design! This is a one yard length of our hand dyed silk that is finished with two pointed ends and a seam stitch along the entire length.
Our modern take on the classic “fairy ribbon” design is available in over 150 color options. These Earth Silk ribbons are made by hand in our Seattle studio. We measure, mix, dye, rinse, wash, dry, fold, iron, stitch and sew to bring you this great wrist accessory.
The wrap is a thoughtful, eco-gift idea and an easy and affordable accessory option to elevate any ensemble. After years of inquiries, we are excited to offer to offer a hand dyed silk ribbon option to our jewelry-designing and accessorizing clients worldwide!
We often write of the custom orders we create for clients’ worldwide, commissioned projects remain to be some of our favorite and most memorable endeavors. Recently we had the pleasure of working with Jeanette Maurer of The Good Earth Candle Company.
“The Good Earth Candle Company features a thoroughly sustainable product, it is carefully crafted in the US in collaboration with a number of skilled artisans and small companies. All candle components are made of natural and renewable materials.”
Jeanette discovered us at a trade show and worked patiently with us to create the right combination of petals and seeds to pair with her line of soy candles. The paper we make for her acts as both a label and a protective cover for her product.
“The last touch to her candles is the unique cover. Jeanette partnered with a creative “eco” printer Jen Merrill, and Kevin Graham who handcrafted the beautiful paper. The paper is infused with real flowers, ferns and seeds that can be planted into the soil to beautify our wonderful planet even more. Jeanette has passion and pride in everything she creates and is very excited to pass this on through offering high quality, very special, “Eco Elegant” products to her customers.”
Upon completion of the project we chatted with Jeanette about her experience working with us to create unique packaging for her candles.
“Kevin and his team have been amazing! When I came to him with my custom project I was impressed with his ability to seamlessly design and execute the elements for my candle covers. He continues to be gracious, generous and helpful even after our project has technically been completed.”
Thank you, Jeanette! We so enjoyed working with you!
