Hello Dahhhhling

LoweCo. and The Divine Addiction have paired up to bring you a very special piece with 20% of the proceeds going to the charity of your choice. Elegant, blind embossed LoweCo. cards with the message "THANK YOU DARLING" on each of our two sizes (folded 3x3s and flat 5x5s) will be offered solely through this exclusive collaboration available at The Charity Market.

Our blind embossed Thank You Darling Large (macho) and Mini (poco) cards exclusive to The Charity Market by The Divine Addiction.

You can only get these sweet and stylish cards on The Charity Market site for a limited time. Not only are we offering these cards individually, but also in packs of five and...in gift sets! Yep, this is a new thang.

Our custom square acrylic boxes house ten of each size card and their corresponding glama (semi-translucent) envelopes. These luxury boxes are the perfect gift for a new homeowner who will need a chic way to adorn her desktop or a present for someone who has excelled at calligraphy and just loves to share the gratitude. Thank You cards should always be readily available and with this premier offer, you get much more than a simple thank you card. You get twenty chic LoweCo. cards and a box to display them in. Once they've used the cards, they can replace them with other LoweCo. cards OR the acrylic box is a graceful fixture to encase your most beautiful belongings. The box is special, the cards are special, heck this entire collaboration is special.

Now when you order these limited edition pieces, you can feel good about it. You don't have a choice about feeling good. It'll just happen. But you do have a choice when it comes to which charity you'll be supporting with your purchase. Pandora and The Divine Addiction have vetted many charities and partnered with American Humane Association, National CASA Association, Kind Campaign, Susan G. Komen LA and The Trevor Project for The Charity Market. So when you place a LoweCo. gift set, a card pack or an individual card in your cart and you're ready to check out, you will have a dropdown list of those five charities. No additional cost, 20% of your cart will already be designated for the charity of your choice. The feelgoods are already starting, aren't they? :)

The "Thank You Darling" cards, packs and gift sets will be available on The Charity Market for a limited time starting Monday 4/4. Charity, exclusive pieces, delivered straight to you. How 'bout them apples?

CARDS THAT HONOR YO MOMMA - LATER

Mother's Day is coming up and not only is our fearless leader Catherine Lowe a momma-to-be, but she also thinks that mothers need to be honored both on Mother's Day (duh) and on all of our birthdays. For Mother's Day, our cards will be available with a sweet gift attached to it. Or rather, the other way around. Chocolates, flowers and possibly more Mother's Day friendly ideas will come with a sweet card for yo momma. Also, we are planning to throw an event for moms and dads in Dallas so you can get ahead of the game. PS. You'll be able to get a Father's Day card too. Word to your motha.

Keep checking our blog, Twitter and IG for updates on these exciting things to come!

Stuff + Other Stuff = Our Stuff
Clean, bold lines of steps in Santorini + Desigual models sharing a fun catwalk five + high-fiving hands during a workout + a Jonathan Burton playing card = LoweCo.'s "I Have A Five That's Waiting For You To High It" card

Clean, bold lines of steps in Santorini + Desigual models sharing a fun catwalk five + high-fiving hands during a workout + a Jonathan Burton playing card = LoweCo.'s "I Have A Five That's Waiting For You To High It" card

Our cards are inspired. Inspired by daily longings like stealing a kiss from a napping partner or a quick glimpse of how sunlight is hitting a building while out for some fresh air. Inspiration comes from anywhere, so keep your eyes open, your camera ready and a notepad to record why you want to keep the moment captive.

In a nutshell, stuff plus other stuff equals more stuff. And in this case, it equals our stuff.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

I HAVE A FIVE / THAT'S WAITING FOR / YOU TO HIGH IT

 

There's always a reason to celebrate someone, even if it's just with a killer high-five.

They Lowe Us: Pandora Vanderpump-Sabo

I'm partial to all of the cards' sentiments--it's like having a favorite child--so I love to ask people which is their favorite. Every so often, I'll tell you who likes which and why. We'll start this feature called "They Lowe Us" with the beloved Bravo-lebrity Pandora Vanderpump-Sabo of The Divine Addiction and Vanderpump Wines & Spirits.

 

Pandora's favorite card:

BLONDES HAVE MORE FUN / WHEN THEY'RE WITH BRUNETTES

"This is one of my absolute favorite LoweCo. notes! Not only does this cheeky & cute card remind me of all the silly fun I have with my darling Catherine Lowe, but I love the fact that both a blonde or a brunette can give this card - either way it's sweet or sassy! I adore that it turns that competitive old saying on its head...no rivalry here ladies; build each other up & have even more fun together! :)"

- Pandora Vanderpump-Sabo

 

GIRL POWER. I couldn't have expressed my love for this card any better myself! Every blonde has a brunette and every brunette, a blond. No matter your hair color though, we all gotta lift each other up and have a great time! Girls, stock up on this card (and its counterpart) so you can decorate a bottle of LVP Sangria that you'll surprise your BFF with, hide in her purse before a fun night out, or just leave in her mailbox when she needs a reminder of how much she means to you. You can get this card in a folded 3x3 or a flat 5x5 at Swoozie's Dallas, Milk + Honey Boutique, Lion + Witch Boutique or The Factory Girl.

Pandora is the editor of The Divine Addiction, which focuses on redefining the word “luxury.” Instead of its traditional meaning of lavish indulgence and extravagant living (usually with a hefty price tag to boot) they want to explore what it means to achieve everyday luxury.

TDA wants to make luxury accessible wherever you are, no matter your budget, and no matter how much time you have. Quick, easy and affordable doesn’t mean it can’t be elegant, thoughtful and beautiful.

Pandora also recently launched thecharitymarket.com, an online boutique featuring unique and gorgeous jewelry and other items, all of which give back to your choice of charity! Sounds like LoweCo. and TDA have a lot in common: making luxury accessible with a heart to give back to the community. Which brings me to an exciting announcement...LoweCo. and TDA are going to launch a charitable collaboration in March! Are you as excited as us?!

Stay tuned for more details on here, our IG, Pandora's IG or TDA's. Heck, follow all four. You'll definitely want in on this.

Will You Be My Valenmine?

Our Valenmine cards are perfect to hand to a loved one on this special day. Your mom, your best friend, your boyfriend or husband who also happens to be your best friend will just adore this beautiful card.

Valentine's Day to me is about spreading love, making love and also making fun of love. Every memorable gift I've ever received--whether it was a jar of lotion or a beautiful necklace--came with a card. Cards that are intentional for the relationship you have with a person make lasting impressions. Our Be Valenmine cards create the best canvas for crafting the perfect letter (or signature) to someone you love, like or tolerate on this holiday.

Ideas on where to place this unique showstopper on V-Day: At a bedside table when your mate wakes up, as place cards for your guests while hosting a rebellious anti-Valentine's day party, daintily on top of that expensive pair of earrings (or cufflinks) you so generously purchased, in a bouquet of flowers you bought your sweet mom or BFF, in your husband's coat pocket before your big evening out... if you chose another spot, comment below. 

Oh, and it's also one of my mom's favorite of my cards. So, yeah.

Anniversary Two with The Boo
Dies and counter dies to create LoweCo. pocos and machos. Brunettes, Blondes, Again Next Year featured because I'm a brunette, my husband is a blonde and it's our wedding anniversary.

Dies and counter dies to create LoweCo. pocos and machos. Brunettes, Blondes, Again Next Year featured because I'm a brunette, my husband is a blonde and it's our wedding anniversary.

In honor of my second wedding anniversary to the man of my dreams and the inspiration behind this very stationery company, I am choosing to be super sweet and write about him and our lovey cards.

If you don't know the inspiration I'm referring to, read my first blog post First, Hello because it'll give you some background on LoweCo.

"Let's Do This Again Next Year / Happy Anniversary" makes me giggle every time I read it. When I created it, I chuckled thinking about how sarcastic it sounded without being bitchy. Anniversary cards can be given for the year after your first kiss with your guy, for the month after you and your friend vowed to give up a bad habit, for the moment after you fell in love. I'm always into celebrating. I hope you feel like LoweCo. cards make you feel like celebrating the little things too.

Today, I handed my husband this exact card and filled the back with shapes that made him smile. Shapes that turned into letters that turned into sentiments. He helped me create big picture: LoweCo. and little picture: the card he held and I hope he felt that his heart was exposed as much as mine was when I made it. The card and the gift I gave him for this special day isn't all I hope he remembers about today. I hope he remembers that he inspires me everyday to put smiles on other people's faces.

I love you so much sweetheart. You are my everything. (Except pizza. You can't be pizza.)

Oh, The Places We'll Go...

LoweCo. wants to be where you are. So, where is that exactly? I know I would say "my house" and eventually we'll be selling our cards online so that we can be in "your house" but for now, we mean stores.

The beauty of being in the stores you already shop is that you can touch and feel our beautiful embossed cards and read each message up-close. It's really important to us that you are completely happy with our cards because that's why we create them.

If you know of a high-end or cool boutique that you think would be perfect for our cards, leave a comment of the name and/or place so we can reach out. Get at me!

Getting personal, this card was inspired by my husband's cute butt and my need to squeeze it.

Patience is a Virtue

I hate waiting just as much as the next gal, but sometimes we gotta do it. Stay tuned on which local Dallas spots will carry our cards! Until then, strengthen your Wait-eus Maxi-must muscle.

First, Hello

I don't know where my obsession with stationery came from, but I believe everyone acknowledges the power of the written word. There's something about having control over the way you write, the words you choose and the sentiment it all holds. This special opportunity to express your feelings and connect with another person is exactly why Lowe Co. exists. To share the love, to document the moment, to elongate the emotion.

 

I'm a hoarder. A keeper of cards and notes and sentimental things from people I care about. It pains me to toss an artifact that took someone intentional, thoughtful movements that eventually ended up in my hands. So I have a drawer. A closet, rather. Of beautiful shapes on paper that created a warmth in my heart. I hope you understand how your unique fingerprint on paper travels into the eyes and then the soul of whom you pick to give a Lowe Co. card. Just like your intentional, thoughtful movements to choose the card, the words you write and the person, we made intentional thoughtful movements to choose the card stock, the words embossed and the person who may pick each one up.

 

Enough about all that mushy schtuff, now for why the messages on each card have a bit of an attitude. I snagged my husband because of my attitude. Not a mean attitude, a sassy/quirky one. I slipped him notes during my time on The Bachelor, ones that gave him an idea that I was more than just a girl that giggled all the time and had deep Seattle pride. My favorite messages include: "I'm vegan but I love the beef", "(just a simple, personal kiss mark to tell him I wanted to kiss him)", "I have decided that STUD MUFFINS are vegan. Nom." They were bold and just enough to start a conversation that didn't include how many kids we each wanted or what our family life was like. Refreshing for both of us, I think. He returned the theme by sneaking his plane ticket to me while we traveled to the US Virgin Islands and replaced "St. Croix" with "Snugglesville."

 

This is somewhat of an homage to my husband--sorry I said the mushy stuff was over and done with. I lied. Life is pretty mushy sometimes so deal with it. Anyway, I wanted to add some attitude to each card so you didn't have to do all the work. You could sign your name, knowing the card speaks for itself or starts a conversation that's different than expected. Now, go work on what your 4th grade teacher taught you. Handwriting.
