The word “bohemian” has been thrown around this past month, and we were wondering how it actually pertains to stationery. The old bohemian “hippie” gypsy rose is long, long gone. In its place, we welcome the hip and couture style of mixing and matching patterns. This isn’t your grandmother’s patchwork anymore, or that pair of jeans you cut slits into and added fabric; this bohemian style is saturated in color and unique vintage patterns. It’s about the layering of a printed pattern paper with a solid layer or two on top.
Our upcoming wedding book offers a truly custom look to a bohemian style. The lovebirds pattern is one of my favorites, because it has the vintage feel of old fabric that you desperately search for at antique stores. The rose’s pattern offers a saturated bottom layer with a red middle layer, white top card and a little rose motif to tie the whole set together. As always, our patterns can be made with the color choices of your special event. Why not add as much style into your invitations as you put into the decorations of your gathering? The invitation sets the tone and is that first impression you just can’t take back.
