The holidays are right around the corner! This is a great time to get started on your cards for this season and get them checked off the list. My good friends over at Night Owl Paper Goods is having a great early bird sale on their holiday card collection and I wanted to share it with all of you. They have already announced this special last week, which is 20% of all personalized holiday cards + free shipping on all orders that total $49 and up. This is a deal you shouldn’t miss!

This years collection features larger sizes, more ornament shapes, and now 12 unique back options to choose from. Their wood cards are printed on sustainably-harvested birch wood and their standard paper cards are printed on budget-friendly FSC certified paper. Even their envelopes contain 30-100% recycled post-consumer waste. I love how they consider earth friendly options and standards for their company. And a big bonus is everything is made in the USA.

Ordering from their website is simple and their personalization tools are quick and easy to use. And even if you want to place an order now but not sure what photos you want to use, you can still take advantage of this great sale and upload your photos later. From traditional and modern to whimsical and adorable, you are sure to find a style you love. The only hard part might be deciding on one design because they have such a good selection!

Getting a head start on your holiday cards is a smart move so taking advantage of sales like this definitely helps! If anything, it motivates us all to get up and get moving before it gets really crazy and we are behind. Night Owl has always offered such great selections on all their cards and items and why not support a company that holds such thoughtful practices. So check out their collection and save some money! The sale ends October 31st!

Here are a few of my faves. Happy shopping!

This week my good friends over at Night Owl Paper Goods shared with me a new collection they are offering and its really is something beautiful. They teamed up with mixed media artist, Dolan Geiman, and created a truly unique collection of paper goods, wood calendars, and notebooks. It makes sense that these two would collaborate since the earth and nature are on top of both their inspiration lists. With a passion for the environment, as well as floral and fauna motifs and modern-yet-folksy style, you can see how they can easily create a magical line of products together.

Geiman’s work is highly influenced by the outdoors and mixed with southern style, which is clearly shown through his folk creations. He is a trained artist in printmaking and sculpture and has a wide range of mediums from painting and collage to 3-D assemblage. You might have seen his work featured in various media like Fossil, Anthropologie, Pendleton and more. He is an advocate for green design and business and currently works in Chicago with his wife but was born and raised in Virginia. I highly recommend you check out his work, its beautiful.

The big debut was this week at the National Stationary Show in NYC from May 18 to today and I am sure it was a big hit. Here is a little peek into the collection. Enjoy!

The save the dates for your big day are the first peek into your wedding. Besides letting your guests know they are invited it shares where and when you chose to have your wedding. I feel they should always reflect the bride and groom and the theme or style of your event. If they are not cohesive with the formal invitation it gets a little confusing.

I have seen some, along with the invites, that didn’t go with the wedding at all and it just doesn’t make sense to me. I know not everyone is a designer, but that is why you have a designer create them for you. It’s just disappointing when nothing really goes together. It doesn’t have to be matchy matchy but it should all have the same feel. It just shows the event wasn’t planned right or the bride and groom don’t care much about details.

Well, here are the save the dates I created so far. You can find them all in my Etsy shop. I try to offer a variety of styles that appeal to everyone. There are more to come soon! You can always stay updated on new items in my shop by checking out my Pinterest board.
