how quickly will my order arrive?

your ship date depends on the number of products you order and their current availability. generally your items will be shipped within two weeks of your order date, unless we tell you otherwise. this time frame does not include shipping time. large volume orders may have a longer wait time due to the inventory quantities on hand. please keep in mind that if you select a ship date in the future, you will still be charged upon order, not upon shipment of your order.

Disclaimer: wildflower seed paper cannot be shipped outside of the united states and canada.

what’s your papermaking process?

we make our handmade paper in house using recycled cotton remnants from the garment industry. we charge our vats with water and cotton fibers, draw our molds and deckles through this slurry nearly 70 times per day, then drain, deposit (couch) onto lightweight felts, and press the post of wet sheets under hydraulic pressure. we air dry these sheets overnight and pull them from the felts each morning into deckled stacks of rough edged handmade paper, with stunning surface texture.
