This picture shows one week of growth of our seed paper indoors under a grow light (watered several times a day). Handmade Paper Invitations Page Pictured below are several different handmade paper invitation styles. Each handmade paper invitation is shown with two prices. The first price represents the cost per invitation (everything pictured) if we provide you with the invitation completely assembled as shown. The second price represents the cost per invitation if you purchase the components from us and assemble them yourself. Not all styles require assembly. Our handmade paper invitations are sold as complete sets or as individual components. We sell every part of the wedding invitation as a separate item so you have the opportunity to mix and match. This also allows you to do some or all of the construction on your own. If you would like to punch holes and tie your own ribbon you can save $1.50 per wedding invitation. If you have already purchased paper or envelopes from another company, we are happy to simply print a vellum overlay for you. If you would like to print your own wedding invitations but wish to order paper from us, great! We welcome all orders. Once you have selected a style that suits you, move on to our handmade paper page to select the flowers you would like in your paper. Handmade Paper Wedding Invitation Ordering Handmade Paper Enclosures I'm ready to order now! - Invitation Ordering View a mock invitation proof page Each printed piece of your invitation order is shown to you online. The standard steps to ordering: Request an invitation sample. Review sample. Select the flowers you would like to use in your handmade paper. Choose what components you need. Request and review a price quote. Decide which pieces you would like on handmade paper and which you would like on machine made paper. Select your attachment style (if necessary). Choose a type style. Choose appropriate invitation wording. Determine what number of invitations you need. Email us with your order. Email us with things you forgot to include in your order. Review/correct proof. Approve proof. Pay for order. Wait one-two weeks plus shipping time. Once you submit your order for custom invitations it takes 2-3 days to receive your link to your online proofs. If you have changes that you need to make to your proofs it will take another 2-3 days for the changes to be made. Once you are satisfied that the proofs are accurate you can finalize your order with payment. Your order will ship one-two weeks from your day of payment. Shipping time depends on your distance from Seattle and the speed of delivery that you request. Contemporary invitations allow for many options. Most of today's couples choose to include directions with their invitations. Often you can combine a map, written directions and accommodation information all on one card. Etiquette directs you to make the invitation very simple but we recommend that you avoid a separate mailing. This will save trees, reduce waste and cut down on costs! You will need a response card if you are having a catered event. Your caterer will need to have a final guest count within two weeks of your event. You can save trees/waste/money if you use the more casual postcard style response. Traditionally, invitations were sent in two envelopes so that the servant of the house would open the outer "soiled" envelope and present the master of the house with the pristine inner envelope. Earth-friendly budget-friendly single envelopes are our favorite! Single envelopes do present a dilemma. How do you address the invitation to illustrate to your guest that the whole family is welcome? Who saves envelopes anyway? Simply address the single envelope to all of the people you are inviting. Here's what most of our clients put together. . Handmade Paper Wedding Invitation Shipping Our standard shipping and handling fees are from $7 to $17. You can estimate the costs if you visit www.ups.com and enter your zip code and our zip code (98108). Handmade paper is light, most of our shipments are under 10#.

A word about Of The Earth: Founded in 1995 by Kevin and Lori Graham; two people who shared a passion for each other and a passion for the world around them. Lori had just graduated from the University of Washington with a BA in Fiber Arts and Kevin had just left a career as a commercial fisherman in Alaska (both life changing experiences). In planning their own wedding they discovered they enjoyed working together both in making the necessary arrangements for a party for 135 people and while endeavoring to make their invitations. They still have some of the original invitation pieces (and have been surprised to learn over the years which friends hung onto them as well) which included a self mailing reply card (handmade), folding invitation card (handmade with flowers applied to the paper), a folding direction card with map (there were two versions of this as their friends received an email reply request - in 1995!!) and a handmade envelope sealed with wax. This amounted to more than three hundred individually formed sheets of paper made one at a time in their kitchen, dining, and living room (picture a one bedroom, 770sq. ft. condo). The kitchen blender was never to be the same (thank goodness for wedding gifts). On their honeymoon while recounting everything that lead up their big day, they discussed what they wanted out of life and realized that they had an opportunity to make a difference and a living together. In the majority of responses they received on their reply cards there were handwritten notes commenting on how much the invitations were loved (someday we will put scans of these online). They saw that wedding invitations touch so many people and can have an impact in their choice of words, paper and delivery. Lori and Kevin realized that by creating a business that embraces our environment with earth friendly practices and an earth focused product, they could reach even more people if they helped other couples to send green wedding invitations. In the intervening ten plus years their dream has become a reality with more then 1,000,000 people receiving a card or invitation made on paper created by hand with the earth in mind. Of The Earth is proud to continue offering great earth focused products. We are also proud of our efforts to be a low impact business, to encourage our customers to use less paper (we love single envelope invitations and postcard reply cards), to produce paper with recycled/recovered water and to use every practical measure possible to ensure an environmentally responsible workplace. Thank you for sharing our vision. Copyright 2008 All Rights Reserved Of The Earth Handmade Paper, Seattle, Washington geovisit();
