photo-invite_funeralFirstly, please let us say that we’re sorry for your loss and sorry that you’ve found us under these circumstances.

Organising a Naming Day ceremony

You can hold a naming ceremony at many different venues – at your home, at a restaurant or a special celebratory venue; a bit like a wedding. The centerpiece of the ceremony is usually a speech explaining why you have chosen the name/s and can include readings or poems. You may also wish to name some ‘supporting adults’  Friends and family can all play a part and contribute if you like.

Personalised Labels for Cooks and Gardeners

Pilton Show First Price Lizbeth Holstein

Glorious sunny days, fresh produce and afternoons spent in a field in wellies. For those of you living the village life, this scene is no doubt familiar and likely to raise a smile at the thought. The village fete is an age-old institution, almost as traditional as the Women’s Institute chapters that so often lead proceedings. There’s something fabulously wholesome about enjoying and celebrating the home-grown and hand-made.

Luxury Photo Cards & Invitations

There are times when technology truly amazes me. What’s possible in today’s digital world would have been unthinkable just 10 or 20 years ago; the information we can access, the way in which we’re able to personalise everything from shoes to credit cards.

But at the same time, sometimes there is no substitute for traditional, elegant, and timeless. I’m a lover of afternoon tea; there’s just something so civilised about it. There’s a heritage and –when done right- an exquisite refinement that epitomises the whole experience. Even when more avant-garde establishments create a twist or a theme, there’s still a loyalty to the concept that shows respect for the age-old tradition.

NSW_logoHere at the HoneyTree Studios we are very excited about the start of National Stationery week (25th April – 1st May 2016)  which this year is working with the National Handwriting Association, Greeting Card Association, Writing Instrument Association and the Post Office to promote the importance of letter writing by hand to children, teachers and schools.

This follows the Government’s decision to reintroduce handwriting and letter writing into the Secondary Schools’ curriculum next Autumn. We care passionately about the survival of the written word and see this as a huge step in securing this ‘art form’ for the future.

Why we love World Forestry Day – 21st March

tree huggingWorld Forestry Day – is an event created to remind communities of the importance of forests and the many benefits which we gain from them. The concept of World Forestry Day originated at the 23rd General Assembly of the European Confederation of Agriculture in 1971; and later that year, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation gave their support and agreed that it should be observed every year around the world. The day aims to celebrate and educate in three key areas of forestry: protection, production and recreation.
