Limited offer, while stocks last! Keep your guests cool with these popular paper parasols (price exclude vat).
The Chinese are thought to have created the first waterproof umbrella when they lacquered paper parasols or paper umbrellas, so it would protect them from rain as well as sunlight. The first collapsible umbrella is another innovation of the paper parasol attributed to the Chinese. Eventually, paper parasols came to be associated with nobility and other high ranking officials. According to legend, at one time, 24 paper umbrellas were carried before the Emperor to protect him from the sun while hunting.
Today, paper parasols or paper umbrellas are both a fashion statement and an item of practicality.
Minimum order: 10 (only while stocks last)

These save the dates are cute, quirky, and completely delightful. Leslie from Lilly & Louise (http://www.lillyandlouise.com) worked with bride and groom Miranda and Matt to create a unique and interactive save the date. They paired a vintage map of California, where the wedding will take place, with baker’s twine and a bold striped envelope liner for a whimsical travel-inspired design.
From Leslie: Miranda and Matt wanted to excite guests with a unique and unexpected save the date… something tactile and textural that would leave an impression. Both Miranda and Matt are from the East coast and their wedding will be in California, so it will be a destination wedding for many of their family and friends and they wanted to incorporate the idea of travel into the design. With a palette of peach, navy, gray and cream, we mixed organic elements of a vintage map of Southern California and geometric elements of bold, thick stripes.
Because good mail is even better with an interactive element, we chose to include the actual save the date information inside a mini envelope. Upon opening the envelope, guests find a classic quote from When Harry Met Sally, then unfold more details. The entire save the date is bound by navy and white twine and two small tags.

Hierdie was die mees intieme seremonie wat ek ooit bygewoon het, en kan net ‘n geestelike verdieping tot gevolg he. Dit was geweldig opbouend, en ek dink omdat daar so min gaste was (ons was seker so rondom die 40) het dit baie bygedra.
My sussie, Carisa, het die volgende mooi brief aan haar dogters geskryf, wat ongelukkig nie by die troue kon wees nie, om die dag te beskryf.
Met ons aankoms Saterdagoggend (nadat ons die tweespoor paadjie met ‘n afgrond aan die een kant moes aandurf – my swak hart!) is ons met ‘n viertrek wildbesigtiging voertuig na die piekniekplek geneem vir lekker gesels, piekniek, manne het krieket gespeel, ekt lekker saam met my ouers gehuil toe ons daar afklim (ag wat, met die vertrek het ek sommer vir almal gese ek huil maklik, toe het ek nie meer omgegee nie). Daarna is ons 2 na die dam toe waar ons oornag het.
Ekt geen foto’s van die onthaal daarna nie: net tydens die opelug seremonie. Dit was baie aandoenlik. Ons ouers het die laaste paar tree met Els tussen hulle, die bultjie opgestap. Aan die einde van die seremonie kon almal wat wou die egpaar seen – ekt nooit besef EK kan ook iemand seen nie! Die Van Niekerks is baie talentvol: die een seun, Lood, het tjello gespeel, 1 die viool, en 3 vd kleindogters en Louis se skoonsus het in 4 stemme vir hul: God seen jul waar jul ook mag gaan: so so mooi, alles met die blou berge in die agtergrond. Na die seremonie het ons Pimms gekry voordat ons na die lodge vertrek het. Daar, hoef ek nie te vertel nie, was aandag aan detail en net die mooiste van alles reeds reggesit. By die ingang was die gastelys wat oor elkeen teenwoordig iets te se gehad het: my het gese ek hou van eie groente en kruie kweek; hou van kook en lees interessante boeke; my dogters beskryf my as ‘n overachiever met ‘n graad op 50. Ons het eers in die lapa bymekaargekom waar neef Schalk my ouers beklink het met mooi woorde en ‘n glasie; toe Louis se oudste broer op sy ouers, en daarna Louis wat iets vir elke gas spesiaals gesê het.
Die tafels was verstommend mooi – hou dan nou anders? Alles meesal in wit. Oral hang iets feestelik, horlosies, vlaggies met kinderfoto’s van elke gas, foto’s uit die verlede van ons gesinne, baie baie glass domes/bell jars met interessanthede daarin (heelwat windpompies uit laser gesny van dik papier, hier en daar ‘n koedoe, karoobossie, voeltjie, en oral origami blomme gevou uit ou FAK liedjies. Let wel, daar was geen vars blomme by hierdie troue nie. Elk sy eie wit lapservet met woorde van “my hartjie my liefie” aan jou stoel vasgeknip, en ook jou eie plekmatjie met ‘n popup toneel - myne was van ‘n boom met koutjie wat daaraan hang. Die kos was uit die boeke! Mama Madeleine se troukoek was ‘n plaasdam, met twee skapies by, ‘n doringboompie, en ‘n windpomp in die agtergrond.
Sondagogg het almal wat wou die son gaan groet met ‘n boodskap uit die Bybel. George, ‘n ongelooflike interessante man, het daarna weer in die lapa ‘n boodskap vir Els en Louis gebring vir die huwelik. Dit is so ongelooflik dat ek dit gaan oortik en aan die gaste stuur, want almal wou daarna dit weer hoor. Hierdie vriend van Louis kom van Alexandrie in Egipte, het twee doktorsgrade in teologie, en ene in sielkunde. Van daai mense by wie se voete jy wil sit en net luister. ‘n diep mens – ons wil later die drade met hom optel.
Ek kan nie uitgepraat raak ook die belewenis wat dit vir my en vir W was nie. Hy was baie emosioneel die naweek, en ek dink dit was goed vir ons. My hoofgedagtes na die naweek: ons land is pragmooi en baie dele is nog heeltemal ongerep; hierdie egpaar is soveel maal geseen, en soveel positiewe dinge het rondom hulle gebeur die naweek; ons dien ‘n ongelooflike Here by wie niks onmoontlik is nie. Ek glo onwrikbaar in die huwelik, en glo uit my hart dat hulle 2 dit sal kan maak werk.
