Very happy to have Paperfinger recognized The Knot‘s editors as a 2013 Best of Weddings Winner for calligraphers in outer boroughs New York City. And an editor’s pick no less! Woot!
We took to the road to drive through the vast mountains of the Sierra Gorda, a region north of Queretaro city. Some of the roads took us high into the clouds, as the road wound in hairpin turns through misty little villages. This is an archeological site from the 5th century, the ruins of Las Ranas.
This Paperfinger menu was featured in the current issue of Rue Magazine. The story, “Magic in the Secret Garden,” was directed and styled by Lavender Joy Weddings (thanks Stefanie!) and shot by Ryan Ray. Florals by Bows & Arrows, dinnerware from Greta Bean. I’m so happy with how it all came together.
Read the full issue here in all it’s prettiness or skip straight to page 68 for our garden story.

I’m delighted to return for an afternoon at the Thornwillow shop, which lives inside The St. Regis Hotel, for a Valentine’s Day Salon.
Saturday, February 9th, I will be providing personalized calligraphy inscriptions on love notes and cards for all Thornwillow clientele from 3 to 6 pm.
It’s such a beautiful space and they produce some of the most elegant stationery you can find. Come visit! Have a Red Snapper while you’re there — the birthplace of the bloody mary, mmmm.
View the lovely invitation here.
I’ll be joined by Montblanc (fine pens) and Fleur du Mal (fine lingerie). Ooh la la!

Spent the other weekend in Bend, Oregon hiking around Smith Rock State Park where we watched crazy/impressive rock climbers repel down from “Monkey Face” rock; skiing and trekking at Mount Bachelor and the necessary face-plant of a nap after it was all over. Beautiful place!
(Pictures by us; and yes, got a bit filter happy with my new Snapseed app)
I’m very happy to share scans of the latest Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine, Winter 2013. Two stories feature Paperfinger’s work in the issue and I’m excited to share the images with you.

Lastly, the Paperfinger love letter featured in a stationery story:
