Papernstitch Paper Goodies

September 15, 2010 // kristen // 5 replies

Papernstitch is such a great place to find handmade paper goodies from independent artists and designers, and I thought I’d have a look around a share a few of my favorites from their curated selection of art prints, notebooks, invites, etc. Well, a few turned into a dozen because I kept finding new things that I wanted to share. So, without further ado, here are twelve of my favorites from the current selection. Have a look around the Papernstitch site, too, and you’ll easily find a dozen more, I’m sure!

Good morning, everyone! I thought that we’d start off the week with these oh so pretty DIY favor boxes that I spotted over at Style Me Pretty. The box templates were created by the talented Kathleen of Twig & Thistle, whose Li’l Tweet Stitch Kits and invitations I adore, and we’ll be seeing much more colors and styles of these fab boxes on Style Me Pretty in the coming weeks. You can download the template for the boxes pictured above here.

I’m loving these gorgeous, laser-cut cupcake wrappers from Paper Orchid. They add a unique interest to any special occasion. Heck, I’d love to buy some just to use when I make cupcakes or muffins.

Paper Orchid also makes special laser-cut favor boxes (below), as well as matching invitations, envelope seals, and note cards.

Wedding Favor Goodies from American Bridal

American Bridal Personalized Wedding Ribbon

I never get tired of the personalized wedding goodies! Above, double faced satin ribbon with your names and wedding date. Available in various shades of pastel shades and in either 12 inch or 14 inch increments. Also available in a continuous 100 yard roll.

Love these whimsical bride and groom favor boxes / place card holders by Kate Aspen. The amount of detail on both boxes is fantastic.

I really enjoy the interesting shape of this pedestal box. American Bridal offers several different favor box kits — the pedestal box kit comes in a set of 20 and includes boxes in your choice of color, ribbon, and personalized monogrammed labels.
