Paper Whale Design: The Feature!

Namastè!

I hope you're experiencing copious amounts thereof.

In my last post, I raved about my current favorite designer, Paper Whale Design. I enjoyed working with Megan so much during our collaboration that I decided to make her my featured vendor this week.

Note: All images herein are the property of Paper Whale Design,  except where watermarked or designated otherwise. Please respect the integrity of her work.

In case you missed it, check out that collaboration here.

Now for that Q&A!

1. Tell us about you!

I am a illustrator, graphic designer and MOM! Being a mom is the most important job, so having my ETSY store allows me to help support our family, but still spend lots of time with my twin girls.

2. What was your inspiration to start your business?

I have always made shirts and gifts for family and friends, so making them for others was just the next step.

3. What's your favorite item to make and why?

I love sending the NICU graduate onesies as I can relate having had babies in the NICU as well. It's such a big step, and a time in your life that you will never forget!

4. How do you stay motivated? What keeps you going?

I love coming up with new ideas and products which are mostly inspired by by own children or for friends and family.

5. What's your single favorite parenting tip?

Go with the flow, and do what works for you.

6. I've browsed your Etsy shop page and we've spoken a few times. I love your designs. What do you see in the future, what's your next steps?

I am still working on building my FB page, and would like to include more products as well as more about me to build a relationship with my customers. 

7. Please share the best piece of life advice you have received, the one that has helped you the most.

Do what you love.

Megan has QUITE an array of personalized onesies as well as wall art. The onesies Baby Namastè received are great quality, and we've washed them (I recommend a gentle cycle--they are baby clothes, after all!) TWICE now with no problem. The designs look as fresh as day one, and the onesies did not shrink. 

Get an eyeful of these adorable designs she creates...





And I cannot get over how she tucks them into the box for shipping.




The other point I can't stop talking about is the attention to detail and obvious care she puts into these designs. The little ribbons. The individual packets for each onesie. The note she includes. I am never lost for words but I honestly cannot speak highly enough of Megan and her work.
I highly recommend her.

You can find Paper Whale Design on Etsy. She is also on Facebook.

An additional bonus of our collaboration? A coupon code for you!

Between now and December 17th, enter coupon code NAMASTE at checkout to receive 10% off your order of $10 or more!

I look forward to seeing more wonderful items from Megan in the future. She has made a major impression on Family Namastè. I am preparing to grab a few more items for Baby Namastè as I type. We love personalized items and we don't particularly love corporate companies, so Paper Whale Design is a definite win for us!

Do yourself and your little one a stylish solid and check her out.

Namastè!
