Body + Mind: Love, Notated
Some say the art of a handwritten note is dead. We say they haven’t seen the Valentine cards from Bell’Invito. Go old school with Old-World-meets-contemporary and überchic cards via the North Texas-based stationer—St. Valentine surely would approve. With quotations on the topic of love from John Lennon and Paul McCartney, William Shakespeare and Woody Allen, how could you not heart them? (We sure do.) The vintage printing metho
d (hand-pressed on late-19th-century presses, family heirlooms of the owner and creative director, Heather Wiese Alexander) juxtaposed with modern, sustainable materials and graphic design creates a simply stunning result. So for all those little notes you’ll be writing on the day of love and adoration, say it with John and Paul (or William or Woody). Who knows, maybe you’ll single-handedly bring the hand-scripted note back from the dead.
