About Paper Parasol Press

Based out of the San Francisco Bay Area, Paper Parasol Press is a collection of artfully designed stationery, goods, and gifts. We are fans of vintage-modern design, handwritten correspondence, and human connections. Cindy is the owner and designer of Paper Parasol Press. She has worked in the greeting card industry as both a designer and production artist for years before going full-time with her own small business. She finds inspiration in nature, travel, and, as a first-generation American, tapping into her Eastern European roots of design and folk art. All paper goods are printed in the USA by a second generation family print shop. We work hard to search out partners and vendors to work with. This is also factored into the costs of our goods. If you or your customers are curious - yes, when you buy one of our greeting cards you're not only bringing PPP business, but keeping the money local by shopping at your brick and mortar. And, without maybe realizing it, bringing business to US-based suppliers and manufactures. Giving Back We believe in kindness and compassion to all living things, which is why animal welfare is extremely important to us. Like us, they deserve kindness, safety, love, and happiness. Seeing an animal get a second chance at a happy and thriving life is a rewarding experience. After all, they give so much in return and are a fundamental part of our families. Read their story
