Botanical PaperWorks Review & Giveaway


Each year, around this time, I go on a search for the perfect Christmas card. This year I've had the honor of reviewing a few different kinds, but Botanical PaperWorks, has, by far, the most unique eco-friendly holiday cards and items that I've found in quite a while. Botanical PaperWorks offers a wide variety of stationary, from cards and calendars to journals and wine bottle tags! But this isn't your usual stationary store. Botanical PaperWorks products are multipurpose... use the product once and then plant it in your yard to produce some beautiful North America Wildflowers! Now, how often can you say that about your stationary?

All Botanical PaperWorks products are tree-free, which means the base is made with 100% post-consumer or cotton. Sending a holiday card from Botanical PaperWorks is not only eco-friendly, but a memento of the special occasion or holiday. Instead of simply throwing away your holiday cards or stuffing them in a box, you can plant these in your yard and enjoy beautiful wildflowers for the months to come. It's like Christmas in July when those flowers start popping up all over the yard!

In addition to holiday cards, Botanical PaperWorks produces a variety of wonderful stocking stuffers and gifts that are sure to make a lasting impression. A journal or Thought Plotter Pocket Notebooks are thoughtful and plantable, as well! Take a look through the wonderful items and make your holiday purchase now!

My Thoughts

I received the plantable Season's Greetings Christmas card set, which includes 8 cards with a removable, plantable Christmas tree! In addition, I received a set of Thought Plotters Pocket Notebooks in the floral print. I love the colors of the Christmas cards, which look like a tye-dye purple and blue. If I'd seen these before, I would have bought them, especially after I found out about the plantable tree!


Thought Plotters

The Thought Plotters remind me of a Moleskin notebook, but with more room to write. Plus, you get 3 for the price of 1 Moleskin ($14.95)! One thing I dislike about writing out lists on paper is that I just have to throw them in the garbage afterwards. With the Thought Plotters, I don't hesitate to write out a shopping list because I know I don't have to throw away the paper; I will plant it instead! It's such a wonderful idea.

Botanical PaperWorks items are so special and unique that I know anyone would be excited to receive one of their products. It's like a double gift rolled into one. Not only are their products eco-conscious, but beautiful.


Buy It

Purchase the 8 card Season's Greetings Plantable Cards for only $19.99 and a 3-Pack of Thought Plotters (available in a variety of prints) for only $14.95! Plus, receive Free Standard Shipping on orders over $75 with the coupon code "FestiveFreight2010" in the Special Instructions box when checking out. (Offer expires Dec 10th)
