Our client needed an elegant gift for a very sophisticated leader in her organization.

She told us she had been looking for a refillable personalized leather journal cover because her boss wrote pages and pages of notes every day and went through journals very quickly. She contacted us and asked if we could make one with her boss’s initials on the front.

We helped her select this sleek green Italian leather from our collection. We have been adding unique leather, fabric and bookcloth to our stock over the years when other companies are closing up shop and we keep those materials from going to the landfill.

After choosing the materials and selecting the perfect style of font for the personalization, we got to work hand cutting the leather to the perfect size, setting the eyelets and hand-sewing the leather loop that holds a pen. Then we made a hand-sewn lined journal to fit inside using a very elegant soft black mulberry paper for the cover.

Our client was so pleased and just knew her gift was going to be cherished and used every day. I wish you could feel this leather…it’s like butter!

We had a non-profit client who was putting on a large, multi-day conference with multiple concurrent daily sessions spread out over a big event venue.

They had a limited budget and wanted to make their event stand out while still being as eco-conscious as possible with pieces they could also reuse for future events.

We designed all these backdrops and oversized flowers for each session area using our long-lasting handmade paper flowers in different combinations to best fill the spaces and set the stage for their event.

In order to tie the areas together, we created 15 arrangements of matching paper flowers that were placed throughout the entire venue so each space felt the connection. Instead of using traditional floral foam, which is not only single-use but also terrible for the planet and creates toxic dust that people breathe in, each clear glass vase was filled with dried split peas to hold the flower stems in place. Not only are the peas an excellent and affordable vase filler, they’re beautiful, reusable and compostable. Plus they don’t damage the flower stems so the flowers can be rearranged and reused over and over again.

We even packed and shipped the flowers across the country and then traveled there to assemble them at the event. We stayed within their budget and we gave them a dozens of pieces they could store and reuse for years. (Which they did the following year!)

Everyone at the event could not stop talking about the decor!! They couldn’t believe the flowers were handmade out of paper. And our clients were so grateful that we were able to make their vision for a bold and feminine event come to life while supporting their sustainability goals.

We got an email from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SF MOMA). 🤯

They found our website through a blog we wrote about repurposing waste materials into new paper.

They wanted to create customized Thank You cards to give to their patrons at their annual Director’s Dinner.

During our online consultation, we helped them narrow down the types of fliers, pamphlets and other leftover, outdated paper materials they had from prior shows at the museum that we would be able to use to make paper for their project.

They collected the materials and shipped them across the country to us where we sorted them and decided on the best mixture to use to make really fun and interesting paper that would also be good for printing legibly.

We created this great mix of pulped recycled papers that even had some silvery shimmer from some old envelope mailers they had.

We helped them create a great design that let the beauty of the paper show while still getting their message across and leaving the inside of the cards blank so they could put their handwritten Thank You notes inside.

They had us print this great Mark Bradford quote on the back, “I use paper because it is a container of information, it has a memory.” along with a note about how the paper was made, “Printed on upcycled SF MOMA materials-paper with its own history.”

I just love being able to help our clients tell their own stories, speak their own values and send a message that speaks to them, by using the actual pieces of paper that contain their history. It’s not just about being sustainable, it’s about capturing meaning and preserving history. These cards hold deep meaning inside their fibers and every recipient could feel it.

We had a client tell us during their wedding consult that we were the first vendor to actually make planning a wedding fun for them. That we took our time to get to know them, their story and what actually mattered to them. And for us, that's the norm.

And it's why the experience of building wedding packages with us is so different. The things we make are made for YOU to ensure that you only invest in things that actually support having the time of your lives with the people you care about the most. We use our paper to tell your story.

From invitations to guestbooks, flowers to favors, we've got you covered.

We're back with our series about some of our favorite projects and this one is PERFECT for St. Patrick's Day. Getting to bring this lovely Irish 90th birthday party to life was such a joy!

From the custom invitations made using our "Irish Spring" handmade recycled paper, with gold flecks and green hydrangeas to the handmade paper florals using bright sunny yellow garden roses, white trilliums and, of course, green clovers, we helped to set the scene for the best 90th birthday party for our beloved client, Bill. We even hid some 4-leaf clovers in there as a surprise for the guests to find!

We also made a photo booth backdrop featuring matching florals in the shape of a giant "90" so he could pose with all his family and friends who traveled across the country to celebrate with him.

And after the party, we repurposed the flowers and made a permanent arrangement for their home...along with matching Thank You cards they could send to all the guests later.

We absolutely love to create unique and meaningful things for your events and celebrations that help you and your guests to create memories that last long after the bartender says "last call".

Got a party coming up? You know who to call.

When springtime finally comes a lot of things start waking up...and sometimes one of those things is grief. Getting back out in the world again can be a reminder of those who are no longer with you to enjoy it in this moment.

If you have someone you're missing or the anniversary of someone's passing coming up, having something special made that reminds you of their energy can be just the thing to make the hard days a little easier. Whether it's a shadowbox or a vase filled with their favorite flowers, or a journal or stationery using paper made with flowers from their funeral, a collage made out of sheet music from their favorite songs or even a book bound out of post cards they sent you...or maybe even a replica of an animal friend who went somewhere over the rainbow, we've helped so many people to restore connection to joy through their grief.

Because joy and grief can and do exist simultaneously and the spring is the best reminder of how beautiful it feels to come back to life when you didn't think you could.

Book a custom order appointment to start your special memorial piece and restore your connection too.

This holiday season has been jam packed with custom book orders but I couldn’t wait to share this guestbook we made for a 50th birthday party cause it’s just so fun!! As our client said. “THIS IS RIDICULOUS! OBSESSED!!!”

We made the handbound book and the stand that holds it and it was so fun to figure out a way to make this magic happen in just a few days…It was down to the wire and we couldn’t actually test the stand to make sure it would hold the finished book because the glue had to set so we had to go on faith and really good measurements. And it worked so perfectly!

We will have lots more pics of our other custom projects soon but right now we’re in the thick of it with 16 custom book projects to finish before Christmas. 🤯🤯🤯😳😳😳😴😴😴❤️❤️❤️❤️📚📚📚📚📚🎄🎄🎄
