Following Progressive Greetings Live in June, Lesser & Pavey has signed up both Paper Shed Design and Robert James Hull designs for giftware ranges after discovering the two publishers and their doggy designs at the dedicated greeting card show.
“Lots of our customers told us how popular Paper Shed’s cards are, and recommended we looked into licensing their designs for giftware,” explains Lesser & Pavey director Jonny Greves.
Paper Shed, owners and designers Dan and Jo O’Brien, are delighted to be working with Lesser & Pavey, using a selection of their best-selling designs from several ranges. “They include a mix of designs from our brand new Buttercup Farm range, as well as established best selling designs from Bucklebury Wood, Pawsitively Purrrfect and Absolutely Barking. We’ve been in contact with the Lesser & Pavey studio team to develop a selection of quality products starting with mugs, coasters, lap trays and stationery.”
Continues Jonny: “With Robert James Hull, we saw his dogs at PG Live and thought they were a really nice fun way to represent the different breeds. His artwork really captures the characters of dogs, so both can go down as PG Live finds. Hopefully there’s another one too, but we’re still in discussion with the publisher.”
