Foosie Design - We've Got It!


WGIC is very excited to announce that we now offer Foosie Design paper products! Over the last few weeks we've been working with owner/designer Erin Frano and were so inspired by her creativity and dedication to being environmentally responsible that we couldn't pass up the opportunity to offer her great products to our brides and party throwers.

Check our all of her great designs on her website foosiedesign.com or on Etsy.com.

A little bit about Foosie:
Foosie Design (pronounced foo•see) is a boutique design studio offering custom stationery with a casual elegance in a cost conscious, earth friendly way. They're dedicated to providing stylish and affordable wedding invitations, birth announcements, and holiday cards for every style and personality. The word "foosie" stems from an old Irish word meaning "sweet treat". What better way to sum up your pretty paper needs! Another treat that will appeal to your senses, is knowing that their earth friendly stationery is made from 30-100% recycled paper and printed with an energy efficient printer. And to help minimize the amount of fuel waste produced during the shipping process, rather than having a scheduled FedEx pick-up, Foosie Design makes daily runs via bike to the local FedEx hub.


Foosie Design was born from a determined bliss of Owner/Designer Erin Frano to bring a quality line of affordable stationery to the market. After working in the stationery world on both the retail and wholesale end, she still can't get over the amazing excitement it brings to be part of such special events in peoples lives. It gives her a tremendous amount of pleasure, to work one on one with a bride or new mom, to create such special treats for such a special day!


Keep an eye out for our first-ever blog give-away, coming soon. One lucky winner will receive an assortment of Foosie Design products chosen by owner/designer Erin Frano specially for our readers! How fun!

What is a Social(ly Responsible) Butterfly?



    Quite simply: it's a cross between a social butterfly and one who is socially responsible. Put them together and you've got one great host(ess) who throws one heck of a party, all while doing his/her part to save the planet.

    Now don't let us scare you off. We're not preaching blandness and minimalism. We don't expect you to treat your guests to wheat grass smoothies and dismally gray recycled paper napkins. It is possible to be lavish and elegant AND be eco-friendly. Hence, the Socially Responsible Butterfly. Just look for the butterfly logo throughout our blog and website to indicate an opportunity to make your event green and grand!


Special Note:
As you may know we've made a resolution to be even greener this year.  We hope you'll join us in our relentless pursuit to preserve our great planet, one event at a time!
