Luxury Stationer Ceci New York launches designer paper accessories
By Anne Chertoff
Luxury invitation designer (yes there is a luxe invitation category and you’ll soon see why) Ceci Johnson of Ceci New York has created a line of laser cut place cards and placemats to dress up your dinner table.
Both innovative and elegant, the designs coordinate with a variety of themes from garden to ballroom to beach. Great for at-home entertaining as well as more formal affairs such as your rehearsal dinner, the line features damask, palm and a peony design for the placemats and nature, shell and lace inspired place cards.
The line, Ceci Vivre, is available at cecinewyork.com or in the New York Showroom. Placemats are sold in sets of 4, $25.99. Place cards in sets of 8, $12.95.
Ceci New York designs beautiful wedding invitations, available through two collections—Ready-to-Order and Bespoke. In addition to creating your complete wedding stationery wardrobe (I didn’t make this phrase up, it means all of your paper elements—save the dates, programs, invite, etc…) you also can order designer stamps via the company’s Zazzle shop.
I’m a huge fan of sending invitations, save the dates, announcements and even thank-you cards with theme-appropriate stamps. And since not all post offices will have the theme you’re looking for, and let’s face it, the wedding stamps are a bit cheesy, you’re sure to find an elegant stamp that coordinates well with your wedding stationery. A sheet of 20 Ceci New York–designed $0.44 stamps, $17.95, zazzle.com.
