| Introduction | www.bettysbureau.co.uk launched in July 2008 by Lorna Wright a former PR Officer in her desire to co-ordinate a collection of beautiful stationery and gift items which all carry a design. “You won’t find anything plain or dull on the site, the philosophy of Betty’s Bureau is that all the products are stylish with a beautiful design. They’re all hand picked for this feature and are produced by design teams and established brands featuring works by well-known and emerging artists” The variety of designs includes pretty surface patterns, wonderful illustrations, gorgeous and stunning photography, are embossed or debossed giving that lovely indented feel or letterpress which uses traditional printing methods. Apart from their beautiful design feature the products are selected for their giftability, are practical and for their outstanding quality. “Stationery is one of my passions, I can’t explain why, but its one of those things I adore and I don’t think I’m on my own here, women generally love it and men generally don’t get it… “It’s a dream to select a range of gorgeous items and bring them to people who crave them” |
