Allie Munroe custom designs available at The Windmill

Happy Friday!  Today, we are proud to feature our newest line, Allie Munroe.  These ladies were sweet enough to invite us to visit their studio a couple of months ago - and we were blown away!  Based in Miami, Allie Munroe offers almost any type of material and printing method that can be imagined – if you have a crazy, wild idea, they will do their absolute best to make it happen.  We love them for their alternative materials – in addition to their beautiful paper (which they can stack up and duplex to create an ultra-thick card), they offer printing on plastic, acrylic, cork, wood, metal, and more. windmillpaper-1

The company’s vision is to put a new twist on the old, crafting personalized paper designs using vintage techniques like letterpress and engraving in fresh and modern ways.  Textured paper.  Saturated colors.  Classic typefaces.  Contemporary designs.  All are signature Allie Munroe.

Elum cards, notebooks, and more

Elum designs are on the shelves here at The Windmill (although based on how fast they have been flying, they won't be here for long!).  Elum offers an assortment of letterpress greeting cards, but we are most excited about the alternative paper items like sticky note cubes, edge painted note bars, fabric-covered journals, and patterned gift bags.

We carry the Big Stack Note Bars in both metallic gold and bright blue.  These come in a set of 150 thick unprinted cards, each of which is edge painted.  These are great for a pop of color on your desk or phone table!

These Writer's Blocks are 700 sticky notes in a cube, with a hole in the corner to hold a pen or pencil.  These cubes are great for an office or desk, and 700 stickies go a long way!

These fabric-covered journals are our most popular item so far!  They are 100% wood-free and eco-friendly, and have 120 unprinted pages inside for notes or drawings.  They also have a gusseted pocket in the back to keep any loose notes, receipts, or anything else you may want to hold onto.

We absolutely love these gorgeous gift bags.  Sturdy and ultra-soft, they are like no other gift bag you have held before - you have to see them in person to believe it.  Stop in soon to see these amazing items and pick up your favorites before they're gone!
