It ain't easy being green.

Stack up that R+H, Alissa.

Just because we're no longer dancing barefoot in a field at an impromptu Blues Traveler concert during undergrad, doesn't mean our enthusiasm towards Earth Day has faltered...it simply means that now, our boss keeps us chained to our desks during the day. Whilst locked up though, we're still trying to do our part. And we love that many of the companies we work with are doing their part, too.

Take for example eco-friendly office organization gurus Russell+Hazel. From the funky spirals in the notebooks, to the fab covers of the binders, R+H's wares are built of 100% post consumer recycled content. Then there's Oblation Papers & Press, our Portland based pets. Using traditional paper-making techniques, these visionary letterpressers produce super thick, 100% cotton acid-free papers from remnants of the garment industry. (And you thought there would never be a use for Grandma's embroidered doilies.) And lastly, let us not forget good old B Designs —sweet little folded and flat letterpressed notecards made from 100% recycled paper.

And that's how we roll Earth Day 2007 in the wide world of custom stationery folks: Clean goes in, clean comes out...letterpressed! Now, go dance barefoot in a field for us, won't you?
