Dear Everyone ~
We have wrapping accessories to the rafters this morning, but, as recent experience has shown, the early bird will get the juiciest bits. Our suppliers in the U.K., Japan & Canada have come through with flying colours, from white (ink) to black (multimedia 100% cotton paper) and everything in beteal (washi with golden blooms).

Eleanor Percival wrapping paper is festive, floral, and fabulous to fold. It corresponds most charmingly to the artist’s Hedgerow Postcard Set (which I’ve just added to her notecard listing). Dress up the wrap with washi. Accessorize with Summer Fruit Stamps. Wish you had a crumpet.
Our reserves of Cambridge Imprint wraps have been replenished, and our next post will feature wonderful (and inspiring) things customers have made with their Cambridge Imprint patterns, including envelopes!
If you’d like to try creating a chalkboard-effect gift tag, address label, or holiday card, our new Japanese fine-tip white ink brush pen may be just the tool for you. The ink is opaque enough that even small print or script is highly readable. On black Saint-Armand, the look is rich and elegant, and the feel is almost velvety. (Our reserves of Saint-Armand multimedia and watercolour pads are close-to-fully replenished.)
Let’s queue up the Kew cards! We are delighted to have expanded our offering to include eight large cards and six smaller cards. In the larger format, Poinsettia Leaves and Nutmeg are particularly seasonal.
Almost last but not least, if you’d like a new roll of washi, check out Dandelight, designed by Mina Perhonen (who also did Well-dressed birds): a deep teal background with golden dandelions.
For the finale: We’ve just assembled a big batch of Bundlissimi, as we had completely run out, thanks to a lovely local order for 16 of them from a neighboring business (whose clients offered “amazing feedback” on their gifts).
