About Decorative Envelopes & Stationery
A plain envelope is just paper, but a hand-painted one is a memory. I use thick 300 GSM watercolor paper and gouache to create these designs, so they don’t just look pretty—they have a premium, sturdy feel. Whether you need a vintage, tea-stained look for a romantic love letter or a bright floral border for a birthday surprise, we can make it happen. Since every piece is painted by hand, I can tailor the color palette to match your vibe, so just let me know if you have a specific theme in mind!
When I’m working on custom stationery, I don't just think about the envelope. I think about the excitement of the person opening it. My goal is to make the act of receiving mail feel special again, moving away from mass-produced designs to something with character.
Here are a few styles I love to create:
- The Coquette Look: Think soft pink watercolor washes, tiny heart doodles, and delicate ribbon ties. It’s perfect for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or just telling your bestie you love them.
- Vintage & Nostalgic: I use a tea-staining technique on the paper to give it that aged, timeless look. Pair this with some hand-drawn calligraphy and a wax seal style, and you’ve got a letter that feels like it’s straight out of a period drama.
- Floral & Botanical: If you love nature, I can paint everything from detailed peonies to simple wildflower borders using opaque gouache or watercolors.
I don't believe in 'one size fits all' for gifts. If you have a specific quote, a date, or an inside joke you want painted directly onto the flap or the front, we can definitely do that. These aren't just envelopes; they’re little pieces of art that make your handwritten letters feel like a big deal.
