And while we’re on the topic of all things beautiful, the charming hand-lettering and hand-painted illustrations from kate’s papergoods are so utterly lovely for any occasion, in stationery and other paper products – I’ve fallen for the enchanting wooden chalkboard gift tags that could be used over and over, and the pretty celebration cards, for nothing shall ever outshine the romance of hand-written notes.
