Welcome to Episode 3 of Season 2 of the Sugar Plum Bakes Wedding Business Podcast. On this episode I am chatting to the incredibly talented wedding stationer, Grania O’Brien of Ink & Paper. Grania made a career switch to embrace the beautiful and traditional craft of letterpress printing and during this episode she shares her story of how she’s grown her business into one that’s highly respected and one where her luxury wedding stationery is highly sought after. She shares advice on steps she’s taken that she believes have helped to get her where she is today.
We talk about the importance of connecting with wedding suppliers through networking and overcoming the feeling of trepidation to reach out to those in our own discipline - Grania is now part of a group stationers and calligraphers that celebrates each other’s work, passes on referrals and is of a huge support to each other. These relationships are so important when you’re a solopreneur and can bring great comfort and encouragement when you’re working on your own.
Grania’s letterpress stationery is beautiful to look at and to hold - if you’d like to take a look at her work or connect with her, you can find her website: https://www.inkandpaperdesign.co.uk/ or seek her out on Instagram. Grania’s business is going from strength to strength and so much so that she’s also now part of a trio called Studio Between that provides gorgeous styling for events and weddings - you can take a look at their beautiful website here: https://www.studiobetween.co/
Thank you again to Grania for chatting with me - I hope you love listening to the episode.
