Sarah Hough's stylish notebooks


Well, another week and another fantastic stationery brand to write about! I have just added these lovely mini notebooks to the site. Designed by Sarah Hough, they are made from 100% recycled paper and printed in England using vegetable inks. I love the fact that Sarah is so inspired by the Dorset countryside, where she lives and works.

Autumn in the air

There is a real feel of autumn in the air today! It was quite chilly this morning when we left the house and I have noticed that the trees on our street are starting to shed golden yellow leaves.
A woody scent in the air reminded me of a wonderful trip which we took along the East Coast of the US last year- I have posted a picture of how the trees looked when we were there- a riot of crimson and gold.

The Carte Postale Cards



I discovered these fantastic 100% recycled greeting cards at the Pulse fair in June. They are designed by Philippe and his team at The Carte Postale. We love the fabulous retro designs and the high quality cardstock used. I'm keen to show that "green" greeting cards can be just as glamorous and sturdy as any of the best brands out there.

Keepsake Notelet Box by Rosehip

I am a huge fan of Rosehip's wonderful paper products, from greeting cards to notebooks and now this wonderful keepsake box which contains 8 note cards, in two colour ways. What makes these even more desirable is the fact that they are made from 100% recycled board and paper... and produced in the UK. I have just added the keepsake box to my online store.

Hot Water Bottles- Blank Greeting Card


I discovered these fantastic cards at Pulse in June and am delighted to be adding them to the site this week. Am thinking hot water bottles might make quite a comeback this autumn as we all try to keep heating bills down! The talented designer behind these fabulous cards is Laura Coley, a graphic designer who recently launched her own brand We Are Family.
