AS SEEN IN: Real Weddings Magazine

Nancy Georges — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 10:59:13 +0000

Our favourite wedding magazine, Real Weddings has featured the Kolo Vineyard and Matchbook albums. These paper albums are a great guest gift or part of a table setting so guests can leave personalised messages and polaroids!

The Kolo Vineyard is now available in two sizes: the original 5″ x 7″ and the new 7″ x 8″. Crafted of fine, pebble grain paper, with a ribbon bound spine that adds a refined look to this Kolo classic. Other enhancements include debossing around the cover window and a new color palette.

The new Kolo Matchbook album epitomizes the adage “less is more.” This 4″ x 6″ pebble grain paper album has a minimal design that features a fold-over matchbook cover and a ribbon-bound spine. A handy scrapbook page leads off (ideal as a title sheet), followed by five sheets with removable, protective sleeves (holds 10 photos). The signature Kolo cover window lets you personalize the Matchbook with a photo or artwork.

Both albums are perfect for non-wedding events too! Be creative: personalise your own wedding favours, birth announcements, greeting cards or mini artist (of any age!) portfolios. They are lightweight and flat enough to mail inexpensively, making it a cinch to share photos with friends and family. They are both sized to fit nicely in the medium Havana Box, for safe storage.

priced @ $17.95 each, they are available in 6 divine colours!

Real Weddings has ALWAYS been my favourite wedding magazine and has been nationally and internationally awarded. Kirsten and her team create a a magazine with integrity. Only a select group of amazing suppliers have been selected to be included in the magazine, each with a creative stylish edge. You will find information on EVERYTHING you need for a wedding – not just the dress, ring, flowers and cake!!

Each issue has a theme running through the entire magazine. The annual Style Issue is a must-have. It has incredible attention to detail, to help you create the wedding that is a true reflection of you as a couple.

Nancy Georges — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 10:52:30 +0000

We love it when magazines feature our products!

This month Modern Home has featured our Coco Flamingo scalloped note cards and notebooks.

We are always trying to promote stationery as a great gift that you can personalise to the style and tastes of the lucky receiver.

We all need writing paper and notecards on hand.
We have all had occassions when we needed to whip up a quick letter or note;

~ Want to send a Thank You note to someone who has done something really nice or gone out of their way for you?

~ Have you missed buying a birthday card or want to send something different to say ‘Hip Hip Horray’?

~ Want to send a short letter with a little momento you are sending?

~ Want to let someone you are thinking of them?

~ Be romantic – write a series of love letters and leave them around the house, in the car, in the knickers draw or under a pillow…

~ You are over sms, email and social-media messages and want to connect with someone you cherish (and they can keep it forever too!)

~ Don’t you love getting a card or letter for no reason at all??

Whatever it is, remember:
Good Manners are always in Fashion!!

We have a wide range of shaped note cards in Flamingo, Lavender, Peppermint and Pink/Choc:



we are adding these to the website soon! If you would like to order the notecards:
