Lovely Paper Things

About Lovely Paper Things

To tell my story, I have to first take you way, way back! Growing up I always had crayons in my hands, play-dough in my pockets &/or a paintbrush swept up in my hair.  I would finger-paint masterpieces (more than a few times on the wall) for my family, & I loved how happy my art made those around me feel. After day one (no joke!) of kindergarten art class I knew I wanted be an artist & designer when I “grew up.”

Fast forward a few years. I went to college & earned my degrees in Visual Communication &  Painting, minored in Art History, & I fell even more in love with the art of paper, letters & visual story telling. I especially adored my letterpress class & as I created my husband & I's wedding invitations, I began daydreaming about starting Lovely Paper Things. After working in the interactive web design world, I quickly learned that though I love the interwebs, my heart would always be with paper & its more personal interaction & connection with people.

I truly adore people, & getting to know their stories is a constant source of inspiration for me. So creating Lovely Paper Things was the natural next step my heart had to follow! Every day I get to use my background in graphic design & painting, while helping to celebrate love….seriously….is this real life….it’s pretty amazing! And I just adore that connection to a tangible, custom created nugget of goodness for an amazing couple or a budding business – oh be still my heart!
