(*new!) there are three tiers:
first tier: personalized collectable poem with two-day delivery sent in a USPS priority shipping envelope
second tier: personalized collectable poem sent via postage stamp 5-7 day delivery in a red envelope
third tier: your pick from two of the seasonal love poems available, sent via postage stamp 5-7 day delivery in a red envelope
first tier––what you get
Each piece is tailor-made to sing to your own experience, and our work begins with a short email consultation. The poem is then spun from this, and printed on 100% upcycled cover paper in the shade of “Lux Blush.” It’s about 5 1/4” x 8 1/2” in size, and the page itself is stamped with a wax sealed rose. It’s wrapped in a crimson red envelope and filled with a red heart card with a handwritten note revealing who it’s from and for. The envelope gets sealed with golden wax, and is sent off in a USPS priority shipping envelope that ensures two-day domestic shipping—and for your poem to arrive in utmost care—to the address you provide. This is a high quality, handcrafted, highly personalized gift that brings back the art of love letters and sonnet of romance.
