STATIONERY - ecojot

Another designer whom I have admired for years (since first posting her work way back in 2007) is Carolyn Gavin. Many of you will know that besides being a much sought after licensing artist with Lilla Rogers Carolyn also runs her own stationery company Ecojot. Through her beautiful designs and products Carolyn promotes the environment and animal welfare, Here are some of the current range with lots more to see online here.

In 2018 Ecojot ran a competition to design a jumbo notebook and from thousands of entries they chose this striking geometric design by Lisa Blue Rogers.

STATIONERY - sainsbury's home

I love this new stationery range from Sainsbury's Home. It's part of their 'Back to School/college' offering and has two core prints : a neon geometric style typeface and a retro geo pattern that wouldn't be out of place on a 1980's edition of Top of the Pops. It also has an extra pop of colour from a co-coordinating Rainbow design. Called 'Home Print' you can find it on notebooks, desk planners, files, and diaries. In stores and online now.

PAPERCHASE - back to school

Talking of Back to School here are a few choice prints and patterns from Paperchase, including butterflies, rainbows, dinosaurs for girls and boys, and minimal geometrics.

GREETINGS CARDS - ampersand

I wanted to go into the Summer break on a cheery and colourful note - so I have turned to two designers I really admire so much - The first is the Ampersand Design Studio (run by Carrie Kiefer & Morgan Georgie). This is their gorgeous card range which are all made in their hometown of Kansas City. If you are lucky enough to live in that part of the world you can find them in local stockists, but if not they are also available for sale, alongside lots of other great designs online here.

Ampersand also have their own shop in Kansas City and the design they created for their store is just brilliant....
