Gift Focus inc Attire Accessories - March/April 2021

OLIVE & BELLE Greeting Card publishers Olive & Belle has recently launched a pretty new range entitled ‘Mizzle’. Beautifully hand illustrated in pen and watercolours, this current collection is inspired by wildlife, nature and our furry friends. These playful designs are in a new 150x150 square format using a modern and stylish colour palette complete with Wedgwood blue envelopes. Covering a variety of occasions and birthdays, the cards are printed in the UK on beautiful FSC approved board, are available with or without cello bags and made without gems or glitter, ensuring they are easily recyclable and kinder to the environment. Given the prevailing difficult trading restrictions all designs are currently available with no minimum order.

This line is still going strong, and especially the stationery part. The collection features soft silicone pencil cases with cheeky little animal faces packing plenty of personality. Combining this with a durable material means these products are perfect for children of all ages – and we suspect a few adults. The range also contains fluffy notepads, brightly coloured pencils and erasers, everything needed to complete a full stationary set. The bright bold packaging is perfect for jumping right off the shelves in any store. With three separate animal collections there’s something for all gift stores whether you are in the market for farm, pet or zoo- themed products.

Available as boxes of eight cards containing two each of four designs, the notelets are made from 100% recycled board and packed with coordinating 100% recycled envelopes. The photographic wallets are finished with a home-compostable gloss laminate whilst some of the art wallets are printed on a textured watercolor style board. Due to the lack of trade shows and the inability to “see and feel” the real thing, The Eco-friendly Card Co has created a short film show-casing the product which is available to view on its Facebook page: www.facebook.com/155660137891446/videos/365008227834806 T: +44 (0)1626 369 269 www.ecofriendly.cards SLEEPY BEE STUDIO A Year of Letters A unique keepsake gift with luxury writing paper, envelopes, and gold foil stickers for you to write 12 letters and give to a loved one to open each month of the year.
