Notes from the Studio

Welcome to Lauda, a delightful stationery haven in Tacoma curated by Amelia. Here, you'll discover a unique blend of beauty and practicality in items so pleasing you'll want to use them every day. Amelia's intuitive selection process is inspired by themes like coziness, mindfulness, and savoring the present moment (ah, what a gift!).

We are deeply grateful for the reflective time she spent with us, sharing her story and we think you'll be inspired by her story just as much as we are. We're also thrilled to have one of our designs as the best-selling card in her shop, such an honor!

We’re excited to share our new free quarterly desktop and mobile wallpapers. Rachel designed a beautiful marigold pattern inspired by our newest naturally dyed generous kitchen towels. We loved it so much that we added it to our new sticker collection as well!

You can download the wallpapers here (you'll be prompted to enter your email - this is just a way for us to keep track of downloads and won't result in any extra emails from us).

You'll have the option to download the calendar version for your desktop or mobile wallpaper, or choose the pattern-only version in one of two color schemes. You can download the zip file here!

 Join us next week for another 7-day ​card writing challenge​! Write one card a day for 7 days and enter to win a free $100 gift card.

Dear friends and supporters of Heartell Press,

I'm writing today to share some exciting news!

Next month, my husband, Eric, and I and our two children are moving across the country to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State to live closer to my Dad (the boys call him Poppy) and his partner, my mother-in-law and my two brothers-in-law and their families who also live in Sequim. My little brother and his family live in Portland, Oregon, so we'll be closer to them too.

This summer, as the Indiana sunshine pours in through the open door of our studio, the Heartell team has made a delicious decision. We want to tantalize your taste buds and share some of our treasured recipes with you! And what better way to kick things off than with a delightful summer drink?

Cheers to good times and great company – let the recipe adventure begin! Enjoy!
