HANDMADE STATIONERY AND BESPOKE PRINT-ON-DEMAND SHOP
Our lives tend to revolve around Holidays and Special Events. The world can’t seem to have even one month without something to DIY for.
Do you love that or hate it?
Here at Kim & Ink we take the middle road. Not every month needs an all out celebration. That is too demanding for people who believe in simplicity. We tend to stick with the most important times, like Christmas and Easter. Weddings and Baby Occasions. And a few in between, just because we want to.
You can depend on our DIYs for any of these to be simple and keep your life as uncomplicated as possible.
