Pretty Pink Tulips for Bespoke Designs

In a collaboration that seems destined by fate, Elizabeth Moyer of Pretty Pink Tulips and Shari Lebowitz of Bespoke Designs have joined forces to bring forth a collection that celebrates the beauty of nature and the art of fine stationery. With Moyer’s penchant for pink tulips and Lebowitz’s eye for extraordinary stationery, their partnership blooms into a luxurious line of boxed notecards, adorned with hand-drawn tulips straight from Moyer’s signature garden. It’s a fusion of floral elegance and creative imagination, resulting in a truly wonderful collection for paper enthusiasts.

Both Moyer and Lebowitz share a passion for flowers, the color pink, and the finer things in life, tracing their beginnings back to high school jobs at local stationery stores. While Lebowitz pursued degrees in History of Art and Interior Design, eventually founding Bespoke Designs, Moyer ventured into the corporate world before launching Pretty Pink Tulips after her home gained attention for its stunning garden. We have covered Moyer’s incredible tulips on numerous occasions. If you missed it, you can view her wonderful garden tour here.

Their paths converged into this collaboration, where tulips become not just a motif, but a metaphor for personal style and expression. Found exclusively at Bespoke Designs, this collection is a veritable ode to sophistication and everlasting allure, beckoning all to revel in the beauty of fine stationery. With every stroke of pen upon these divine cards, you’re not just sending a note—you’re dispersing fragments of Moyer’s vibrant tulip garden and Lebowitz’s imaginative spark.
