Helena (left) and Sue (right)Beginnings...
We started Whites in August 2006 with a dream of designing and printing beautiful stationery using traditional techniques and craftsmanship. Helena and I had other jobs at that time and so Whites was mainly an evenings and weekends activity.
We started out with wedding invitations and put together a few designs. We had them printed with the help of Helena's family, who own a print workshop. We learnt about letterpress and embossing techniques and what a wonderful quality and feel they brought to the printing. Soon our customers were asking for other items to match their invitations, orders of service, menu cards, right down to place settings and table name cards and so the collections grew...
And now...Three years down the line and with lots of orders off the press, Whites is still growing. We have steadily built up our collections to include social stationery as well as wedding stationery. Our eye is always on keeping the quality and elegant design we are becoming known for. We strive to offer a personal service to all customers so that they know their stationery is safe in our hands.
During the last three years, Helena and I have fallen naturally into our roles within the business, Helena heads up Design and Production and I head up Sales, Marketing & Press. We started out in London and now have a base in South Wales too. It's been great fun, but it's not always easy... nothing prepares you for the responsibilities of running a business but I have to say we count ourselves lucky to have worked with some great customers along the way and that our passion for producing beautiful stationery means we love coming to work!
Thank you for visiting,
