Creating a sustainable writing practice

If you are a paper lover then you are going to really enjoy today’s sponsor – a stationery business called Papergraphie. You will find a gorgeous combination of risograph printing, hot foiling and bright fluorescent colours and you can get your hands on their collection of cards, prints and postcards inspired by France, Kids and a love of reading. You’ll be able to find something for the whole family. All of the products are fully recyclable and are printed on beautiful tactile eco-friendly papers. One for example is made from bamboo and another using algae, the small seaweed particles give it an incredible texture.
